What is Web 2.0? A boring Description

My relationship with Web 2.0 is really love hate. Without Web 2.0 I could never play Jetman on facebook, or look at my sweet picks on Flicker. Stil in my busy school, and social schedules I often don’t find time to work on my web 2.0 accounts.

So I scrambled to find as many web 2.0 based things as I could. I was amazed at how much content there is about Web2.0. Name Generators, Game sites, awards, design tutorials, ect ect ect. I was blown away. Just last week I was thinking that Web 2.0 was sort of a joke; It was just a bunch of bloggers and internet junkies. It’s very impressive to see so many different web2.0 sites. This site claims to have found the top Web 2.0 sites on the net.

After my journey through several different sites I discovered that Web 2.0 is really about one thing: sharing. Share video’s on “You Tube”, share your pictures on “flickr”, share your music on sites like “Myspace”, and there are countless other things.

I’ve strayed away from the question, is Web 2.0 the future of journalism? Thats not a tough question: Yes it is. The real question is when will Web 2.0 fully and completely take over the world of the journalist. Right now traditional journalism and web 2.0 are working hand in hand. News organizations post everything they do online, and still release it through TV, Print, and Radio.

Web 2.0 is the future; but the future isn’t now.

Until Next Time

Wymon Stanlick - read Wymons blog it’s excellent, anything but generic.

Here is a quick piece of it – ” So I was coming out of viewing Cloverfield for the second time this week (don’t start, please). I had a few buddies with me, and we walking back to the car… soon a man on a bicycle rode by at an alarmingly fast speed. Followed closely by a man shouting “stop that man, he has my bike”… “

I was one of the “buddies” who witnessed this bike thievery. It was a very unexpected, and I do hope that the man got his bike back. However I’m fairly sure the thief got away and his life continued to spiral away into darkness and crime.

It starts with a bike, usualy moves to a car and then gows to some white collar crime like tax fraud, or credit card fraud. Then the man expands his one man operation and hires people to help him with his dirty business; next thing you know he’s a crime lord. The crime lord will soon be rubbing shoulders with the hire ups of Hamilton due to his new found wealth and loaning them some of the money that’s really not his. Soon he’ll have a lot of powerful folks, who owe him alot of money.

So basically he’s running the city. So basically WyTy Stanlick and I could have stopped the future crime lord of Hamilton. Maybe if Wymon wasn’t so busy buying a Schwarma, and I didn’t have to urinate so badly, we could have stopped this guy and returned the bike to it’s rightful owner. The man could have taken his bike home to his loving family, and then the next day he could have cycled to an interview and found a job, providing his family with a meal and a sense of security.

Anyways Thats the blogpost for today, Thanks for the extension Roz, Don’t Stop Believing, Until Next Time…

  • I had a blog last year on a different site for another course, and I enjoyed writing on it. In the end laziness and procrastination kept me from continuing the blog. When the course was finished with so was my not so legendary blog. I’m not sure if this time around it will be any different. I hope to get a lot out of this Social Journalism course, I believe that this may be the future for journalists so I want to learn as much as I can. I hope to learn how to upload some videos, or some of my audio so I can show my work to a wider audience. The more technical skills that I obtain from this course the better.
  • So I am all about Jetman, for those of you who don’t know what this is, search for it on facebook and you’ll be hooked. This game takes me to a higher place and I feel like I am the “Jetman”. Every time my Jetman crashes I feel like I’m getting kicked in the nuts, but then the game resets and I am free to fly again.
  • Nick Jameson is a 9th year journalism student, seems like a decent guy but one thing about him boggles my mind: the man always pops his collar. I’ve formed several theories on why the collar always remains popped.
    • Theory 1: Far too much starch in the guys clothes.
    • Theory 2: He is self conscious about his neck and hides it with his popped collar.
    • Theory 3: Nick is a bargain hunter, and buys shirts with faulty collars that always remain erected, saving himself plenty of money.
    • Theory 4: Nick walks very fast, so the breeze that he causes when walking creates lift pushing his collar to an upright position.

Thats it, Until next time, Don’t Stop Believing.
