Persephone's Playland: September 2009
http://persephonesplayland.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
I am sure that Facebook. Generates a lot more money now than it did when I first became a user, but am I the only one who longs for the simpler days? Now, I have to check my Facebook account every five seconds to make sure that no one has posted an embarrassing photograph of me or written something inappropriate on my wall. Also, sometimes I just feel, well, overexposed. So what do I do? I miss the days when there was a little Facebook guy. PS Can someone please bring back the poke? I was not entirely co...

Persephone's Playland: November 2009
http://persephonesplayland.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
I think that it is a mistake to attempt to compare Facebook and Twitter. On both sites, users become entangled in the development of an online image, however, this image is constructed very differently on the two sites. Both Facebook and Twitter allow users to create online images of themselves; however, the Twitter image is a markedly different one than the Facebook one. I wish I could Tweet at a list so that every time I want to say something about Twitter, I don't have to create a whole new blog post!

Http:/ www.nytimes.com/2009/12/14/technology/internet/14virus.html? 8220;I wonder what people are thinking of me right now? 8221; said Matt Marquess, an employee at a public relations firm in San Francisco whose Twitter account was recently hijacked, showering his followers with messages that appeared to offer a $500 gift card to Victoria’s Secret. 8220;No one had said anything to me,” he said. “I thought, how long have I been Twittering about underwear?

http://persephonesplayland.blogspot.com/2009/12/all-media-exist-to-invest-our-lives.html
All media exist to invest our lives with artificial perceptions and arbitrary values. I think that media is a form of entertainment (which, yes, as Mcluhan states is intrinisically linked to education), and as such, it is valued differently than the founding principles upon which we are raised. What role does religion play in this? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an error in this gadget. Mary Beth Lives Life. To and FRO’s blog - Vox. A hot mess’ blog.

Persephone's Playland: McLuhan Link
http://persephonesplayland.blogspot.com/2009/12/mcluhan-link.html
CBC on Marshall McLuhan: The Man and the Message. 10 tv clips, 8 radio clips. This helped me understand the distinction between "hot" and "cold" media. Marshall McLuhan adapted these references from the TV jargon "high" and "low definition." High definition means well-defined, sharp and detailed visually, such as a map. Low definition refers to indistinct images scanned by the eye, with which the viewer is left to fill in the blanks, such as a sketch. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Persephone's Playland: October 2009
http://persephonesplayland.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Random Note about Wikipedia. I was editing the Wikipedia page for Accidentally on Purpose. The tv series) and I came across my BIGGEST pet peeve about Wikipedia. I hate when a Wikipedia link is created toward something random that has nothing to do with the article. For example,. While Billie receives encouragement and advice from her party girl. Best friend (and fellow journalist) Olivia and her conventional, younger, married sister Abby, she also has to deal with Zack's freeloading. I think that people...
