IF the LIBRARY and WIKIPEDIA had a BABY

Google ! Our friend? Our Enemy ? Our Poison Our Medicine? Google for years have been the only place that I could find information it was the only platform for me to gain insight But now, New sites and places have been brought to my attention its sort of like being introduced to new foods and new places EBSCO and Jstor though it holds more dense and broad information it is more reliable and legitimate information   than you’ll find on Google if doing research . it is an great tool to use if your on the path for information that will be the meat and bones of a paper instead of a Wikipedia anybody written outlook on things

ACADEMIC WRITING

I have Trouble any time I hear the word research . No im not afraid of research im afraid of bad research and the information that tags along with it . bad research is deeper than having a lower grade in a course bad research can result in a domino effect of bad pasted information . your bad research could result in multiple failures in scholarly aspects and in the new knowledge aspect. one example of bad research would be an Wikipedia  page on the (M.o.m.a) written by non reliable source and the information taken from there spread over as the facts when it is not always certified

I SEARCHED DOG BUT FOUND PETCO?

As internet become more accessible to society the use of it grows also .The thing we mostly use it for in my opinion is to search, but how is this information compiled? who is the one to say this is more relevant than that? Elizabeth Liddy breaks down to us how a search engine works but doesn’t go into depth on why it works that way and if that method it is built on is more beneficial to the consumers who search. i have experienced  negative results on a specified search countless numbers of times and i’m at the point where i ask when does change begin

GIVE ME KNOWLEDGE OR GIVE ME DEATH

If we were judged by how our heart thought rather than how our brains worked we all would qualify for a noble honor. In the case of Aaron his good heart was hurt by the laws that govern his brain and the world. His action may have arguable lead him in his demise, but what certainly did was the fact that he was breaking the law with out intention to. This “LAW” and laws that govern information have to either lighten up or come to an end it makes knowledge which should be free to the world and everyone in it a golden secret that very few should obtain. In my honest opinion the record of information should be free and able to access to all who wish to gain

DONT MOCK ME ITS A CRIME

IF YOU SAY IT YOUR FAMOUS BUT IF I MOCK YOU IM BRAINLESS WHATS A STUDENT TO DO” -REVISED VERSION OF (JAYz STREETS IS WATCHING)

A line taken and made your own is not illegal but is it right , and if so then what is wrong. “the Plagiarist tale” gave an excellent view and understanding on what not to do when creating a piece of work you’ll call your own. I wouldn’t see it as a simple word such as PLAGIRISM but  as a theft of the mind. often we use others thoughts ideas and feelings to inspire something we do but using them and reproducing them on our own is a term I wouldn’t like to call unlawful intellectual claim even to go as far to label it as identity theft.

BAD OR GOOD ITS STILL THE RIGHTS

From The Aggressive yet comical point the articles and videos stood in defense of i would have to disagree . they spoke on how copy rights aren’t fair and are a choke hold. on the contrary i believe that copy writes are good and stand in place for the majority. if i had work out there and someone was to create something off my idea i want a type of intensive of any form not always money but recognition for your creation,because i helped to make it what it is. it sucks for the deep thinkers and the time spent doing these things and someone else to claim that its thiers and that they did it and i stand on the side of the law with my best foot forward

NEW NEWS OUR NEWS

Free expression of media and information that cuts out the editors and the over saturated bias opinions that we see in large information news papers. web 2.0 with Wikipedia zines and other media projections have rebelled against that until they get large enough that they become what they once opposed. but with the free editorial feature that few like wiki has allows vandalism of any information that is posted on the there site. with a balloon affect of the media growing it is no saying on what level free speech will hit welcome to the new millennium where we all are editors of our own in the new free world

A PHENOMENON

“So how do you like that new photo copied magazine. NO ITS A ZINE DO NOT CONFUSE THE TWO”. The past underground form of publicized opinion on topics that vary from all assortments. This published piece by individuals across america has reached over 20,000 fans. Though I feel it can be compared to and considered a blog posts zines stand on there own. they come in ways of hand written work to type up group ideas with vivid view points and facts more structured in a people to people conversation and a more political look in most cases differentiating it from a main stream advertised magazine its a people to people publication and doesn’t deal with the mass appeal on one topic because it doesn’t grant power to just one writer or view point

Content I could careless

As a consumer I purchase so many new things i never go deep enough in finding out what they there use is or use them to their full capabilities.I have this new toy called a SAMSUNG S4 and it has to many features for me to even use and by next week there is going to be a S10 next month S20 technology is moving so fast i don’t even know what i am allowed or even want to be allowed to do. In my personal Opinion its is a nuisance being a EMT major i have the power to alter images with the snap of my fingers and just knowing that some one else can do it to me at any giving moment is kind of a scare i am no longer afraid of a physical threat but more of my livel-hood thanks to technology
