Is Threads becoming a new trend?

Have you ever used Threads? Do you think it’s a good platform?

Threads is a new online social media platform operated by Meta Platform, which is the same company of Instagram and Facebook. Its function is very similar to Facebook and Instagram. Users can post their thoughts and share their daily lives on the platform. However, unlike Facebook and Instagram which can post story and reels, Threads can only post captions, photos and videos.

Another difference is that you’ll see anyone’s posts whether you are following them, unless private accounts.

Which social media platform you like to use the most?

Online news were fast enough to update daily in every second

Nowadays, Newspaper were not that popular at before. Since Electronic devices: smart phones came out, Newspapers were not that necessary anymore. Cause people can read news and new notices from phone. Smart phone can update the news at the moment and every second if something happened.

If there is a fire happened at NT, after the reporter knows about the fire then this fire news will update to Social Media immediately.

So as now technology upgrade, Newspaper were not that useful as before because newspapers cannot deliver the news and update the content as fast as internet. We can see that the fast growth.

What does "Aesthetics" mean to you?

In the contemporary era, media is a well-pretended platform for bloggers to post filtered pictures like high-quality lifestyle or gorgeous selfies, and here the term “Aesthetics” called for them. For me, as an English Studies student, aesthetics can be anything or in different fields but this word is closely related to literature.

Briefing up a little cognition of “Aesthetics”, is an ancient word derived from the Greek "aisthetikos", meaning “of sense perception”. Originally, it was a sense of how mankind could build an ideal art. We establish a relation through words, images, signs, and symbols. That’s why the ancient people they were preferring to internal manners and speculated studies for humanity, and also there we are in studying the arts of English.

Indeed, few people would deeply realize the importance of art because we have a limited mindset. To comprehend the true depth of the meaning is quite hard and complicated for humans. At least, we need to break free our mindset to accept humanity. Those are always confused about why we need to study Visual Art in academics or what it is for, but the funniest is they wouldn’t think about what you can gain from learning this aspect. Here you will know the level of wisdom on them aren’t the same.

So, Aesthetics is more enhanced and flourishes your logic. Better to understand this world’s perception and your idea of the world. More and more artists have a higher sense of empathy to express feelings addressed by intangibility like the lyrics in music you will cry because the songs appeal to emotions at the low. The painting used red and blue colours to show the internal conflicts of the painter. Why we can sensitively know people’s feelings through their facial expressions? It does not mean how well you capture their faces but truly is that you can capture their mind underneath their movement in psychology.

Literature is an external system to communicate with others, Aesthetics is more the use of our senses to acquire information about the world around us and to become acquainted with objects, events, and their features. They're the combination of perfection.

Online class props and cons

Since of COVID, all schools started online class, some people said it good, it can prevent from face to face. Some people said it’s not good because students might can’t focus on class.

As I see, I had to agree that online class gives a good distance from some different situations, because all of us just need to stay at home, open the computer or iPad then we can start our class, just to be online, no need to be on class physically.

But problem came out, students might be out of focus, because they might play with their electronic devices. And it’s bad for eyes because of Blu-ray.

So, how do you think about online class? I think it’s ok for some situations, cause it’s convenient.

Vlogging

In the past few years, vlogging has become very common. In today’s world, anyone can become a vlogger and share their personal lives, passions and experiences. Vlogging offers a unique blend of content whether its travel adventures, fashion, cooking etc. Vloggers bring their unique personalities to the screen, creating a sense of engagement. So viewers are drawn to the unfiltered content.

The viewership of vlogs is also quite big. I guess people love watching their favourite people doing crazy stuff like challenge videos, same as I do. To be honest, I would even watch people just randomly spending their day at home and sharing their daily routine. I don’t know it’s just fun to watch, but only if I like them.

Foodie: Sharing or advertising?

Nowadays, there are many foodies appeared on social media. All of us must have seen these accounts. Perhaps you are also a fan of it or maybe you want to be one of them as well. However, did you realise the credibility of the posts? Or have you ever been curious about this job? Let’s delve into this mysterious job!

Actually, the nature of this job is to have a try on different restaurants and gourmet food. Then, give out their comments and rate it based on the first-handed experience. Actually, all of these are supposed to be voluntary.

Yet, some restaurant owners reveal that they have received direct messages from some “foodies” to seek for the advertising fee!?

In my stance, I would say that it’s a bit weird to ask for the advertising fee after you have a try on one’s restaurant. In other words, it would be more reasonable if the restaurant owners ask a foodie to recommend their food and give them salary.

How do you think of this job?

Reels addiction

The reels on Instagram is such a guilty pleasure. I mean how can a person stop the moment once he started scrolling. I think it’s very challenging. You just keep telling yourself okay this is the last reel I’m gona watch, and then you find yourself laughing 10 minutes later. I’m sure everyone can relate to this.

If I talk about myself, I love to watch every type of reel, it can be literally anything. But cooking reels are the best, at least I’m learning something okay:) I’ve saved some and also tried out the recipes. So I guess it’s not really waste of a time. But at some point it is!

So I guess the reel addiction isn’t guilty pleasure if I watch them when I’m FREE, cuz it does lightens your mood trust me:)

At first, online shopping was not popular because clothes, shoes, hats needs to try at the shop to make sure the things or the product was suitable for ourselves, but now online shops will hire model to make an example, sizes and different styles were more and more.

There are some examples like TaoBao, Carousell, Instagram shop, Facebook shop and more. And the things that the shop sells were more than before, not just clothes, there are more like nails painting, costumes, electronics.

So, it convenient and fast! That online shopping.

Is Netflix Becoming a New Trend for Learning Languages?

In this era of streaming services where they have brought an extreme change in how we consume material, the Netflix is not only the most funny page to watch but also now becomes modern language tool as well. Streaming giant Netflix, given a chance with its huge supply of foreign material and a new good method of teaching languages, puts language learning process in a whole new perspective.

1. Diverse Content for Language Learners

The catalog of foreign films, television series, and documentaries broadcast by Netflix accounts for a huge reservoir of tools that can be efficiently used by language learners for honing the hearing skill, the vocabulary and preparedness in grammar. Whether you want to know the basics of Spanish or brush up your French and Korean skills, Netflix has various options to help you learn different languages and explore diverse cultures.

2. Subtitles and Dubbing

Being a rather immersive learning aid, Netflix, with a vast amount of switched on subtitles and dubbing, definitely enjoys a competitive advantage. Bringing the movie with subtitles in your native language when viewing the content in the target language boosts your reading and listening skills at the same time. On a different note, you can try the subtitles in the target language for better understanding of the context and longer vocabulary list.

3. Language Learning Series and Documentaries

In addition to Netflix introducing content directed towards improving language skills for such audiences as language learning shows and documentaries, the company has decided to create such content. Netflix programmes constitute a learning tool which include both language lessons and cultural pieces combined into fun and amusing experience.

4. The Preservation of Language and Cultural Exchange in Communities

As online communities and language exchange platforms have appeared with Netflix's widespread adoption among language learners, these communities have had a great impact on the way people study languages by offering an opportunity for learners from all around the world to communicate. These r/ Language groups are where language buffs come together to express their love for the series, recommend ways of language practice, and interact with native speakers.

Conclusion

Through the global expansion of its reach and language learning work, it could be deduced that Netflix needs to provide more than the mere pleasure as it is also meant to cater for the needs of the language students. Language learners can make the most of Netflix's media-rich offerings, interactive capabilities, and community support to practice a target language and eventually, improve their language skills in a fun and entertaining manner.

“Chiikawa” Era!?

You may found that everywhere has the trace of a few little cute creatures recently. These little creatures don’t know how to talk, but how can they create a new trend to become “Chiikawa Era”?

Chiikawa is made up of two Japanese words, “chiisai” (small) and “kawaii” (cute), blending means “something small and cute”. It is a popular Japanese manga that about the lives of these fancy characters, Chiikawa, Hachiware and Usagi.

The group of little cuties created by Nagano and being posted to Twitter in 2020. They look like animals like hamster, cat and rabbit. But in fact, they are not those certain animals!

The entire story is about the lives of these small and cute creatures. However, they need to go to work like us as well! They need to get the license of weeding by getting passed in the exams and go to work. This huge contradiction between the cute settings and harsh working requirements makes this manga series more attractive.

Nowadays, we can see the trace of Chiikawa anywhere and anytime. Their products, advertisements and banners can be found in lots of shopping malls. The entire city is being drowned by chiikawa!

Instagram note feature

Some while ago, there was this new feature introduced on Instagram called the “note”. Initially I found it cringe because everyone was posting random stuff, so I just ignored it and never wrote anything.

But later, I thought of giving it a try. I don’t really remember what I wrote, but it somehow seemed interesting. Then I would look through what others were writing. The things people post would just be literally very random, like just the Netflix series they’re watching currently or just something about their day.

So as everyone was posting, I no longer find it cringe and did the same. Sometimes it feels good to write about my thoughts or feelings, even though if someone reacted on it or not but it feels nice to vent out what’s in my brain.

One day I remember I wrote about my never-ending bloating problem, and someone just replied to me by saying drink ginger shots and boom I felt quite lighter. So this note feature is a good way to interact with our followers and express our thoughts.

Exploring Simpsons Animation: Is the foreshadow real?

Introduction

Loved for its quirky and humorous take on American life, The Simpsons is an anime television series that has delighted audiences for decades. It has been recognised for its remarkable ability to predict future events. Fans have expressed amazement at the show's apparent premonition of real-life events, ranging from political outcomes to technical breakthroughs. However, how precise are these purported forecasts? This blog explores the phenomena of foreshadowing and helps readers distinguish between fact and fiction by delving into the realm of The Simpsons animation.

The Magic of Animation

Animation always could conceive realms beyond our wildest imaginations by transcending reality. The Simpsons has won over fans all over the world with its vibrant ensemble of characters and witty narrative. However, the ability of this animated series to capture the spirit of popular culture and offer insightful commentary on our modern society is what really makes it stand out.

Decoding the Foreshadow

One of The Simpsons' most fascinating features is its apparent ability to foretell future events. The series made a prediction in 2000 that Donald Trump will eventually get to the top position in the most powerful country in the world. It appeared to be absurd. What a coincidence, therefore, that the contentious businessman took the oath of office as US president in January 2017. The programme has been acknowledged for predicting significant historical events, including the emergence of technology and political scandals. But are these events just coincidences, or are there other factors at work? According to psychologists, our brains are hardwired to look for connections and patterns, which frequently causes us to detect correlations when none exist. Is this the reason behind The Simpsons' purported ability to foreshadow?

Distinguishing Real from Fiction

Although The Simpsons has occasionally made startlingly precise predictions throughout the years, it's crucial to view these occurrences critically. It's easy to pass off a lot of the show's purported forecasts as coincidence or as the writers' astute observations of current affairs. In the realm of entertainment, where artistic expression is unrestricted, it is usual for artists to include elements of real-world events into their creations.

The Power of Imagination

The Simpsons is fundamentally a celebration of the creative and narrative faculties. The show has succeeded in capturing the essence of contemporary life and reflecting it back to us in a bizarre funhouse mirror with its astute humour and incisive criticism. The Simpsons' influence on popular culture will last for many decades, even though we may never fully understand its capacity for foreshadowing.

conclusion

Upon concluding our examination of The Simpsons animation and its purported premonition, it is evident that the boundaries between fact and fiction are frequently hazy in the entertainment industry. The Simpsons will always be able to fascinate fans with its humour and insight, regardless of whether the show actually has a crystal ball that can predict the future or if it's just a matter of skillful storytelling and astute observation. Thus, the next time you watch a Simpsons episode, watch out for any subliminal clues about what's going to happen; you never know, you could even see one yourself.

So we can see people’s daily life habits though what they are watch, doing and noticing.

Marketers are tracking you? It’s Data-Driven Advertising!

Are you struggling why social media can always suggest the advertisements of your ideal products or the stuff that you’re recently looking for? It’s “Data-Driven Advertising”!

We all know that social media is a common platform that marketers implement their advertisements to promote their products. But we probably don’t know that all of our searching records in our browsers are collected as our “digital footprint”.

Marketers tend to design their “buyer persona”, which is a semi-fictional character that represents their ideal customers. Then, they’re going to target their consumer groups, and start the “Data-Driven Advertising” by utilizing your “digital footprint”.

That’s why your money is flying away! Next time when you see those advertisements. Avoid to click in it immediately. Be a smart consumer, think twice before purchasing!
