More Final Project Analysis
Alright…so, talked to Dr. C about my project and decided it would probably be best if CCTV were dumped from the list. This leaves blogging and citizen journalism together, and those two mesh rather well so I think this project has gotten less hectic. I found new sources in Technorati.com and was told to see what wikipedia has to say about citizen journalism in general. I guess I really just have to build out what I want this project to answer and make it…well…inspiring so that I’m not staring at my computer with a blank look and hating every minute I spend working.
Last night was probably one of the most interesting discussions we’ve had, and we left on many tangents. From the quote “faked interaction can be an annoyance” we went off on several tangents, one of which being if ignorance was really bliss. We also talked about the best way to receive information, be it in bite-sized pieces or large chunks that leave room for more questions to be asked. This was all very opinion-based and it seems like both ways work rather well, it just depends on how they’re presented. This actually seems to be the case with a lot of arguments.l..two sides think of two different ways to approach a problem and it turns out both are right in their own context, yet wrong when being applied to other things. It’s odd that we seem to always want to try to find one “right” answer to a problem when there is usually more than one right way to solve the problem. Each side never seems to be happy unless their way is used in its totality, so compromise is never reached. Not that compromise should be reached, because that leaves room to throw out bits of the solution…there should just be a way to accept answers where applicable. This all feels rather jumbled in my head so I’ll leave it at that for now…which is actually an easy cop out of pursuing a subject more but the whole thing really frustrates me.
