Collaberative project.

I don't know what I wanna write about. I guess pretty much anything but a collaboration of poetry, nobody likes poetry. I don't really have a preference towards anything. I don't really wanna do the children's book either because I don't want to have to draw a picture, being that I have no artistic skills at all. The work of fiction I wouldn't mind so much, but I don't know how well it'd work. Choose your own adventure would probably work because then your whole book doesn't necessarily have to work together. It can just be bits and pieces. Most of these options seem like they would need a lot of structure to work efficiently.

Future of social media focus writing

I don't think that social media is going to have sensors that replicate the 5 senses. I could however see some of that stuff going down, such as Google buying Micro$oft or Amazon buying Yahoo. I for one don't think that technology will ever be advanced enough to replicate the senses or create "second life" avatars. I do see the internet completely taking over TV and radio. I could see the plastic paper thing happening like a smart phone or something.

Socialnomics Focused Free Writing

The facts in this video don't really surprise me because the way media works things have been expanding quickly. I was a bit surprised by the fact that if facebook were a country, it would be right below the US for population. The ways of communicating are changing and they are going quick. Social networking gets us everything from opinions to news and everything in between, its faster and more effective than newspapers. Newspapers should be dead in the next couple of years just because they are being out competed by technology. Technology is just more convenient, its faster, more accessible, and has few mistakes.

Free Writing Activity

I can't believe Sarah named that kid Logan. At least its not Carter but she should have named him levi or steven or something, Loagan and carter are not cool names. whatever this kid wont be as cool as Brody anyways, yeah for sure not as cool as him. But its not like we'll ever see them since she lives in Dassel.. who moves to Dassel? nobody does that. she shoulda just stayed in the metro area now she is like 2 hours away thats ridiculous. I'm tired and im so glad its friday finally ive been waiting wayyyyyy too long for this. Gonna get home blast through some SC and then go where the night takes me and sleep in like a mofo. 3-4 hours of sleep a night sucks.
