As with any class and new textbook, there is a certain amount of time that it takes to become acclimated with the expectations of the new class and the new material being presented. Fortunately, much of what was covered in these first two chapters is material I have already covered in a few of [...]

Based on the reviews from my peers, I would have to say I am optimistic about the current state of our project. McKenzie raised a good point by saying that the newspaper articles in our blog don’t suffice as research. However, just as Twitter operates, this topic is fresh and constantly updating itself. Unfortunately, that [...]

What’s my age again? Reflecting on screen shot analysis
Posted in 1 on February 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The screen shot analysis was a fun project because I am not used to creating documents and then having them so readily available people. There was certainly a level of vulnerability and insecurity to deal with during this project. However, I feel like my screen shot analysis was a strong one, and even though I [...]

Non-Academic canonical text: Tiger Woods This text is a striking example of what can be accomplished in advertising when utilizing new media. It’s ability to blend the use of audio, video, and html coding, and all done in such a unique and almost unassuming as an advertisement. Academic Canonical Text: William Poundstone This is such [...]
