New roadblocks for solicitors
I always thought the obnoxious calls at all hours of the day from telemarketers was a human rite of passage. What stage in life you’re actually ascending to…. I’m still not entirely sure, but it’s not the point. While being constantly harassed about going back to school while I sit in my dorm room is […]
Briggs Chapter Four: Microblogging
This chapter on microblogging made me think back to the class where Steve Buttry came and spoke to us. He explained to us that stories could be told in tweets, 140 characters or less. That we, as journalists, are only limited by our own creativity and imagination when it comes to digital media. For me, […]

Textbooks Going Digital
In this day and age everything is going digital. It reminds me of a song from my childhood that was aptly named, “Going Digital”.

Apple has released it’s Genius […]

I found this to be extremely helpful because I currently blog for an online magazine called Chaos where I post twice a week on the top trends of men’s fashion. After reading this chapter I’ve thought about reevaluating the way I write […]
Briggs Chapter One: We are all Web workers now
I like to think of myself as a very technologically driven person. My Macbook is always within arm’s reach as is my smart phone, but when it comes to the super technical things I tend to have a bit of a struggle. Case and point — the use of code. To clarify, I don’t have […]
Briggs Introduction
For me the entire introduction had something of a hidden doomsday feel to it. So often I hear people speak about print media as if the internet was a cancerous cyst that has doomed the world of journalism. I shouldn’t say doomed, rather it has changed the entire game. The world of journalism has been […]
Okay, I read the article and here’s what I think.
Personally, this article appealed to me. Mainly in the section that talks about how readers have good judgment. I believe that to be true, because no matter what you have an opinion on something and that drives what you choose to or refuse to read or acknowledge. With a platform like the internet it is […]
