Mira Jana's World of Fashion and Modeling

Today we are comparing Twitter with College Blackboard



           






For those who used to Twitter social network, Blackboard may seem confusing and inconvenient for communication.However, it has a lot of the same properties. You can create your post, and other people can reply and or quote it. In addition, your post are not limited in number of character as your Twitter post (140 characters). Blackboard also looks more organize. There are created topics by professor, under which students can comment and communicate with each other. 

On the other hand, Twitter forces the discussion very quickly, because of the limited length of the post . It allows you to create your own page, when Blackboard offer you to share the page with others. You can also follow different people and give like to the other's posts on
Twitter, while Blackboard is only for classmates.

Advertising, Promotion, and clients communication are my concern about different social networking cites. Let's have a look which site suits which purpose the best.
Twitter basically allows us to create short messaged on our page. You can make twits to let your friends know how you are doing or to let customers know about any news if you are a company. You can tell people about new stocks arrivals, holiday promotions and sales, post images of the best products, or post your advertising flier. All there can easily fit 140 symbols.
Facebook is a social network basically for friends, which recently generated into huge business. By creating your business (or public page) you can promote yourself or your company. You can even by different typed of promotion by Facebook. You create a large page with description, background, and a lot of other information. This pages is not just for news, it represents you and say a lot about toy life. It is easy to communicate with other in long messages.
Youtube allow us to watch millions of different videos. Everyone can record and upload whatever they want. If your video reaches certain amount of views, you can start being paid by Youtube. This website allowed people to create their video blogs, to record their talents and become famous. All companies try to have their commercials on Youtube, and some even pay for their commercials to be shown, as a short inserted video before the one you want to watch. It is not convenient to communicate through Youtube.
Instagram let you to show your life in pictures, as your photo album. This is another good tool for bloggers, because you can write a small article below your post. You can also switch your account to public to promote and view your account statistics. Statistics show use how many impressions, profile views, and reaches you have this week and in comparison to the previous week. It also shows you how your followers are divided by sex, age, and geolocation. Instagram page is good to promote and advertise your private or business page. I think it is amazing to for online store with accessible communication.

Social networking allows us to manage and communicate with our contacts in a totally new way and access information as never before.
Social networking can help people to find their jobs in term of finding an employer or to start your own business by helping you find partners. The bigger site for professional social networking is LinkedIn. Your page on this site represents your resume with past experience and professional skills and it is open to everyone. You can easily find people from your aria of business with the particular occupation. You can find employer or employer can find you.   
Another growing phone application is Instagram. It is less professional and more for personal use, however, a lot of businesses and start-ups have already made a lot of profits through promotion and advertising on Instagram. Some people also earns money by cratering their own photo and video blogs via this application.
One more, huge social network, Facebook has generated into making profit for everyone. Everybody can make their own public page and promote it. You can also connect it to your Instagram page and online store (if you have one) to make cross promotion. Moreover, Facebook recently added a new function “sell" to its application, where you can buy or sell anything you want to people who are located around you.
There is a “black side” of social networking as a fault of any other new technology. Randi Zuckerberg was a good example how easily you can get into your own trap. Facebook setting are a little tricky even for site creator’s sister, it is hard to notice the difference between making your photos open to “friends” or “friends of your friends”. Alike situations lead to misunderstanding and arguments.

Privacy is a large rising issue of all mass media nowadays and social networking makes it even more vulnerable. Nobody teaches people how to use social networks properly and safely. Some of our parents are skeptical toward social networking because of old way education, but we are different and this is the point of getting in trouble. “Our kids today will give everything [in terms of personal information] away, but it’s not at all clear how this will shake out in the long run,” says Wharton marketing professor Peter S. Fader. And this is so true. I want to share my example. My friend is a student of USL – the best university of London with the starts students. Once, her department decided to make an experiment, they sent unfamiliar people to the classroom who asked all students to take piece of paper and write down some information about them, which usually is used for banking account. They reasoned that this information is required for the university. All students have written everything and passed papers to those unfamiliar people, without even asking a question. That is how new generation is fearless =)

Hello,

First of all, I would like to explain my decision to start this communication in blogging form. There are a lot of different ways of communication within new media nowadays. The main competitor to blog is wiki.

Blog is an abbreviated version of Weblog, which is a term used to describe Web sites that maintain an ongoing chronicle of information. A blog is a frequently updated, personal Web site featuring diary-type commentary and links to articles or other Web sites.
Blog is usually launched by one person and the communication occurs in posts-comments (or one-to-many) form. Nobody can change the information except the owner of the blog. Blogger shares his or her opinion with audience. Blog grows slowly and can refer the reader to other web pages.

A wiki is a website that allows multiple users to create, modify and organize web page content in a collaborative manner.
Wiki is created by group of people. It is the best way for business to communicate and share information (as database) within the small group. Everybody can add whatever he or she want. The communication is integrated for group (many-to-many form). It grows rapidly and links one wiki page to another.


I chose to create a blog, because I want to share my individual experience with others. I don’t want any one to modify my posts. The purpose is creating an online journal for random readers.
