Week 8 Implementation

As you tend to create goals or set a success rate at, you may have the ability to implement. In business implementation is all about setting a goal for yourself and reaching it by a certain time. Creating your own schedule to be more successful on your end. Shifting aloud to prevent the best outcome is the wrong route to go and that is what makes some people stuck, and that becomes a problem for those who are struggling a long route. Although, if you risk the opportunities, chances are, you will have a better outcome, better than what you probably imagined or hoped of. As long as you give yourself visuals and allow yourself to keep on task, you are golden. If you implement the information/goals I had set for you throughout this project, well done, I praise the work you had surrounded to categorize your ability a little bit. Although as you tend to use ads, market your brand, and get your name out, challenges are going to be on the other side of that door. The haters pushing you away making you dislike what you love, the action of self confidence, you must have that in order to keep pushing, and if not, stay behind bars and try the hard way. It is tough to understand because these are serious but harsh traits that will occur as you face the population nowadays. Keep your head strong, be able to stay focused, don't push off subjects, stay on track, do not overflow yourself with false information. Implementation is a strong attribute, as long as you use it correctly.

Week 7 effective development

Development is key in the social media world and what you decide to make of yourself. Any content can be effective as long as you interpret the information with the correct viewers through your social media posts or blogs. Create a strong fan base and whenever you have to get w word out, it’s as simple as a click of a button to post that one important sign that the viewers must need. Not only is there struggles and some competition, but that's what makes the career more of a heart felt subject and brings out the true meaning on how you want to get the best product out of your creativity. Once you create that business profile the you are all set to advertise your product to receive the attention your striving to receive. As to providing social organization skills with the principles of effective content, you must have the endurance to achieve the acts of distinct cooperation between you and your fan base. Enjoying the content posted and those who view it are the strongest aspects of receiving tips or opinions on the content. Build that organization into a strong aspect of corresponding to your fans or followers. Like as stated before, whatever your content is all matters on who you surround yourself with, whether its followers or an everyday friend/family. Hootsuite modules really brought out some good aspects of how to create that long lasting advertisement so followers can follow up on the information thrown out and given to your community. Everything is an aspect of your own creativity and how you attack the idea that has been running in loop throughout your head. Effective content is whatever you make of it, can't be afraid to risk the one idea that could most definitely launch your company or follow base through the roof.

Week 6 response

After reading chapters 4 and 5 from the Social Organization, I had came to the conclusion that online formats are mainly the only way people can persuade the audience. Whether through social media aspects or even through networking from websites or shoutouts. As written on throughout the social organization, “we often hear communities on the public internet seem to appear and grow spontaneously to millions of participants without an obvious, explicit purpose.” Millions of people use the same applications as others and if you build a string fan base, your product or your word will be heard, whether its on someones “for you” age or whether its just sitting in your feed. Nowadays social media seems like a trap, which it very so much is, but most people can't live or function without it, even for work. Soon enough small companies are going to be fallen apart and big companies such as amazon will take over because it is all online. Any URL or icon will help launch your company and you/your client. 

Once done with my Hootsuite module, connecting social media aspects with the community to work well with my client, was not hard in any fashion. As a producer you must use social media to launch your new content and get your name out there. So in oder to build a community, you must look at Hootsuite chapter 4 and how you interpret ads into your everyday posts. Having a business account will launch your streams up through the roof. In order to do so, having a Facebook business account and a instagram business account will connect to each other and will allow you to post such ads. Join social media to niche your conversations between fans, and that is how you get those fans to see your ads. Once connecting to the community, people will pay attention to your work and what the story behind it means. Twitter, google and Linked-in ads will also boost your views throughout the media. Once one person likes it, then it will publish on other for you pages if they follow that one person. These ads will surface the media within a day or so and people will get the word out for you, rather you harassing yourself to get that word out.

The Legal side of BigData, opposed to the Internets Sin

Big data, what businesses and consumers should both be aware of, and what are the best possible ways to balance the opportunities and threats presented by big data. Big Data is considered to be the volume of the data. Businesses should be aware of information being written down, whether that Is considering a background check, or possibly keeping your data surrounded. The government is supposed to have secure big data, but the world may ‘never know’. Agencies have more than half cooperation running off of valid authorization which is considered to be seen as 11 out of 47 OPM systems. That shows that the government is not having secure data alongside the outbreak. Consumers have to worry about having their personal data hacked or disrupted. The main problems are listed in the lecture, “The legal side of big data”, first off, the poor risk assessment and secondly the lack to prepare. In order to pursue a stronger atmosphere/company, you must move as a trade secret, to confirm your own confidentiality and the companies agreement to vendor with limited access. The best possible way to balance the opportunities and threats are given with a planner. Be prepared for the worst and understand how to fix the problem before the problem is even occurring. Ensure your security is strong and working well with vendors. Be sure to clarify what has happened in a recent sale, merge or a possible reason why the industry has pursued bankruptcy. 

After reading the article, “The Internet’s original sin” and watching, “The internet with a human face”, it had brought an aspect of surveillance that I hadn't quite had a perspective on. A great example would be considered to be seen as pop up ads, some how they always know what you are looking for, recently had spoke about, and why you want it. These ads push you to better yourself but at the same time, defeats the purpose of you learning and bettering your internet process. If something is too good to be true, it’s too good to be true. It’s a terrible saying, but it’s so true. These ads are considered to be “attention minutes”. Whatever you type or send, it is recorded somewhere, as Maciej Ceglowski states in his lecture, “it goes on your personal record.” He also states, “we are addicted to big data, not because it is effective now, but only because it gives us better stories. listed in the article, ads are given from purchased views, the longer you watch the more you receive. The web is completely different now a days and it is astonishing how we are pursuing our perspectives around the ‘big data’. Although, if there is enough data, anything is possible.

Why Junk News Surfaces the Media

The 3 main reasons on why junk news is spread all throughout your feed is due to algorithms, advertising and exposure.. Algorithms are a huge help to the social media aspects, without them we would have to sort our feed personally, which would take ages. Algorithms are here for us consumers to understand the consume the information thrown out. Another term for these algorithms would be considered a ‘filter’. Filters are set to either have new information pop up rather than old, or the other way around. Plenty of examples could be shared. Whether the content is true or not, that's where or personal brain power kicks away those false statements around the internet. Advertising is a power move when comes to social media content, in order to get the product seen or heard, its up to the ad to promote. All based on time and quality of the ad, if longer than 30 seconds and the consumer has seen over 30 seconds, then that company or individual would get paid for their advert. Clickbait is there to determine your likelihood and filter out the videos you enjoy to view. Including the fact that people are hired to promote a certain product, although they have no common sense around the item. This would empower the various actors to micro-target their potential voters and viewers. Ads are all determined by strategic sales and messages. Finally, the exposure on junk news. Although the algorithms and advertisements get the message across, the exposure is where the damage is done. Once the image or post s out there, its out there and theres no way of returning it. Networking takes matter of seconds to share an image or post. “Schemata”- “cognitive representation of generic concepts with consistent attributes that can be applied to new relationships and new kinds of information.” We post so we don't have to face the dissonance of cognitive exposure. Businesses should be aware of what they post, who they hire, and what they interpret in each ad. Anything now a days could come off in the wrong way, which is upsetting, people are becoming soft as Charmin. The bigger the organization the more you have to worry about, individuals only have to worry about what they post and what they share. For example, If you were at a party and you didn't want someone knowing, and someone posts about the video, that is going to network around and is soon received by the person that didn't considerably know about it. Junk news could be spread in the blink of an eye. Whether is something that wasn't supposed to surface the media, or whether or not it was the wrong information handed out. Either way, you don't want people to view your company or you as an individual as a problem to society or an issue with what your selling.

Social Media Consultant

In order to be a successful social media consultant you need to be organized. Everything comes down to time management and whether or not you can multi task or finish the objective within a certain amount of time. Now when being seen as a social media consultant, it is all about planning and when your going to publish your next post, blog, comment, etc.. These posts will be available for those to view your company and/or personal actions to be considered In a future aspect. You must be able to align business goals as well, such as when posting or when you're going to go on your next shoot. Also, in order to be a social media consultant you have to have basic knowledge around social media, and must be able to adapt around new things especially if the ad or post didn't go as planned.

If I personally was a social media consultant, I would start off by hiring a photographer and capture a quality amount of good images to promote myself or the person interpreted for. I will plan a date on when to publish and possibly give out certain capabilities or links so people can view what you are publishing and why. I would need to work on my organization skills and tend to not procrastinate as much, but that is all about being able to adapt quickly to new things, which should be easy as long as I set my mind to it. In order to strive on the internet, you must reach out and network and have more followers so the more people can see the post, although, as long as you have one, it will be shared and profitable for yourself and others so they can view your content.

The Social Dilemma

A Netflix documentary that I believe everyone needs to watch..

The world is becoming like a spell, a spell that has pushed everyone away and keeps their focus on technology, hence social media. Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, instagram.. I could name hundreds of social media applications that are ruining the lives of the new age. When I was younger had received my first cellphone when I had gotten into sophomore year of high school. Now, Children at the age of 6-7 are receiving technology. The focus from these social media point of view is all about, how long can I keep the consumers attention. The product is all about the “change in your behavior”, and that is how they make money, the way we change. “They sell certainty”. The theory throughout this documentary relates to what they do with the data. According to the data, they create a figure of you, knowing what you enjoy, watch, and think of. The 3 main goals for this dilemma would be seen as the engagement, the growth, and the advertisement. Algorithms are viewed to give you what you are hoping for, whether its a video about sports, or sneakers, they will find your precise thoughts into an ad. A quote given throughout the documentary that had caught my eye was written by Arthur C. Clarke. He states, “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” It’s all about who can make technology more persuasive. Every time you see your technological device, you tend to look at it, or use it. If something like a bike, considered a tool, it sits there patiently waiting for you, but if it's not a tool, such as social media, it is demanding attention from you, knowing you will be back. All the algorithms are, are setting up an advertisement for you to get drawn in, and buy the product, or go out and do such action taken place throughout the ad. People are trying to change their own perspective, by the way a filter looks, which is absolutely crazy. Technology has its pros, but in all honesty, it is only harming the thoughts of how people persuade themselves. It’s just more of a problem with these triggering algorithms. Imagine the world without technology, imagine the social skills everyone would have, they're wouldn't be nearly as much drama, harassment, or clashes between others. People would have to meet up, get out of their comfort zone and become a better version of themselves. This is my response to the social dilemma, and why technology is abusing the lives of our very own.

Social Media Reflection

My reflection on the social media log, personally, I don't use my phone as often as others. I tend to use It mainly for text messaging, calling, or when in an emergency. I did enjoy to see the amount of time I had spent on my social media applications and just looking at a screen. Although I was out for the most part with some friends, those are the best times for no business calls, mainly time to enjoy a conversation with a few friends.  I had only spent a total of 8 hours out of 24, that is way less than the average teen. 

My reaction towards the experiment was quite unique, I had a long day in general coming home from a 2 and half hour drive from central, then having my cousin over within an hour. I was quite exhausted but I had keep conversation going with others rather than face down into my phone. The experiment was separated into 4, 6 hour increments and I loved how I had attacked this. Just the right amount of separation, although the 3rd increment I was passed out the entire time, still shows you teens tend to turn and go straight to their technological device or a screen such as a TV. No one gets up and reads a book anymore, and if you do, Kudos to you.

Social Media Experiment

For my social media experiment, I had thought that using my time and spreading the 24 hour experiment into 4, 6 hour increments. Date started: 07/02/2021, 3:00pm. 3-9, I had driven home from Central Michigan at around 4:30, so I had used the GPS to direct my way home, also including Spotify for music purposes. I had arrived at my household at about 7:00pm and had a few friends over, so I had used iMessage for a total of 25 minutes throughout this 6 hour increment. Navigation for a total of 2 hours and 28 minutes. Snapchat for a total of 17 minutes. Transitioning into the 9pm-3am increment, as in 2/4 increments. I had stayed up all away until 2 am, so by the time my buddies had arrived, we had all pushed our phones aside, I had only gone on my phone once throughout the period and that was to play music, which had played a total of 4 hours and 37 minutes. As time went on and we had gotten to the third increment, (3-9am). I had been passed out asleep by this time and hadn't woken up until 12pm. So as we surpassed the 4th increment of the 24 hour period, (9am-3pm), I had woken up at 12:23pm, went straight on my phone for a Total of 38 minutes, 12 on instagram, 2 minutes on Tik-Tok, and 24 minutes on snapchat. Once it had hit 2:32 I had pulled out my computer to work on homework, and that had surpassed the 24 hour mark. This was a visual on my social media experiment

Dates: 07/02/2021 - 07/03/2021

Week 2 Part 1

Max Stossels pres.

My response to Max Stossel’s presentation on sneaking into the audience’s brain. Stossel brings up the point in color, red notifications were alerts, stressful to the eye, if a lighter color hence, green, we would be more relaxed and calmer when seeing a notification. Hence the phrase, “sneaking into your brain.” Was blatantly described when Stossel shared a video of a photoshop application, which had turned a peperoni pizza, into a woman. Anything could be toned to be to their liking. On that same note, Stossel does a great job stating, “when people are being verbally harassed, such as being called stupid or worthless. There is a different from being called worthless then actually being worthless. Being called worthless says a lot more about the one who approaches. Although, once dug into your mind, if it hurts you, its meaningful to you, and/or helpful for you, it is very hard to let go. Life has been getting easier and easier although there has been a lot more miscommunicating. Meaning, abbreviations for words over text, such as “lol, ily and idk”. Times had changed as more technology is being introduced. It’s almost at the point where we aren’t taking ourselves into perspective and learning more about what you are doing and who you are. Don’t manage every detail of your life.

Before the internet article

“Before the internet”, an article written by Emma Rathbone. I had taken away the idea of technology is taking over. Meaning, people don’t sit in a chair anymore and read daily, go on an active venture, or even create a interesting piece of art just because you had nothing to do. Nowadays, people can play video games, watch movies on any platform, and just have the tech read for you. It is creating everyday society into a more unstable community. I enjoy the reference Rathbone states when inferring the F.B.I card into play. Creative minds like to create things of their own and create things that look appealing to the eye. communication is all there is now, mainly due to phones and how people can communicate outside of face-to-face aspects. Simple ideas, such as wanting to dance in the moment, draw, or even read don’t come as often as your mind should be processing. I personally enjoy this article due to the compatibility throughout personal lives and communication, “Before the Internet”.
