I really find the Video "Web 2.0" To be really interesting not only because my teacher told us to watch it but mainly because the creator is kind of thinking like me. He has a really open mind about what He's writing and documenting. I dont completely understand the concept at all about what Wesch is trying to show us but Im really trying to keep an open mind about it and Ive been reading all the video comments on Youtube and I still dont understand what He is showing me! I think it is partially trying to tell me that the machine is us. Haha, I know it say's that in the title but I think I truely understand what that means. That the internet is getting smarter but only because of us. Its building knowledge that "we" put into it. Not like those Terminator movies where the machines grow smarter by themselves. (At least not yet anyway). URL for Video http://tinyurl.com/yw8co3
We were also supposed to talk about Clive Thompson's article Titled the New Literacy. I read this article and decided to myself "we are in the midst of a literary revolution" because everything is changing and growing and people are all deciding different things. I know my last blog was flowing with decent mood and perception but I just cant find it in me to write like that tonight. I think writing should be spoken with truth and whats on our mind and Im trying to create my writing to not be distant from that but to create a compfort bubble that is decent enough to be honest and well written. Once again, Im sorry about my writing tonight. My grade will truely show it when I get a report back for this PLN.
