I came up with two and I couldn’t pass them up. The first is from the Clay Shirky reading about the monk whose scroll writing job ceased to exist and decided to write a book about it. The second is about the Wikipedia contributors. Shirky says they are individuals who use their love of information to create a website such as Wikipedia.However,what if maybe they are just a bunch of virgins with alot of time on there hands due to extremely poor social skills. I chose memegenerator.net to complete this task as it has become the most effective way of creating memes.

Hate to explain the joke but I decided to make this one because the registrar and bursar are always suggesting take 12 credits a semester just to get financial aid, when really you should be taking 15 or more if you want to graduate on time. Its basically a scam and who better to give you the waring then Admiral Ackbar

On Monday i suggested a site that was a source of amusement for your average pre-teen boy looking for some crazy stuff on the internet. To my surprise as much as yours it was turned into a full blown porno site. While some though it was a mistake it could have easily been interpreted that I was a sick freak trying to fool the professor into showing my classmates porno. So I present to you proof that steakandcheese.com as nothing more than a average site that borderline psychotic people posted on just for fun.

This is the classic steak and cheese using http://archive.org/web/web.php or the wayback machine I was able to look at the history of the site. There wasn’t full blown porno on there but some sick stuff none the less and a disclaimer on the homepage that would have made sure you didn’t even see crazy stuff right of the bat. In the most simple terms it was as close to a blog as you can get people posted content of things they though were crazy, insane, and straight up disgusting, there were even links to porno. All in all its not there anymore I don’t know at what point it turned into that but atleast I remember what it used to be and was able to give you a glimpse of my memories. I rest my case.

After seeing the 3d print demo I didn’t instantly thing it would be the next thing. While people will be able to print actual objects they won’t be able to print things such as technology. Also, people are very lazy to be able to print some truly amazing things people would have to think on an engineer’s level. I don’t really want a 3D printer at home home unless it could print something I could use in my everyday life I’m too old for toys sadly. With 3D printing we can make sense with what we’ve read before that this is definiyly the rise of a new community or a popular trend that could rise soon and become a worldwide fad only time will tell.

When it came to writing my paper i took the original idea I had for my first blog post and expanded upon it since it was of interest to me. i create a outline using one i created in my speech class from two years back i would create a thesis statement, three main point expand on those and then close out with a conclusion.I chose to write about the section called “your family” and how your parents have lost influence and control over you because of the media I feel like that describes America today. It wasn’t difficult  since i feel like that was a parallel of my life i was able to use my experience and opinion to flesh out the paper.

If your a music fan then you should know that Kanye West is releasing a compilation album for his label GOOD Music called “Cruel Summer”. It has been delayed two times from its original August 7th release date to September 18th now. I have never doubted Kanye when it comes to his music except for “808’s and Heartbreak” he was experimenting i didn’t really feel it but when i listened I was pleasantly surprised.So if he is delaying it for a good reason I would understand. However recently a track-list was revealed listing only 12 songs and if you have been following news on the album you know that he has purposely released FIVE songs already which means you would technically have to pay for seven. two delays for 12 songs and 5 of which are already out? This was going to be one of the first Cd’s i bought in a long time just to show my support but if there isn’t more content than just 12 songs its a safe bet this album if going to get downloaded for free a lot

A certain passage or line i found memorable in The Medium is the Massage was the one about your parents or parenting. To the world you didn’t belong to just your mother and father they were not your only influences o sources of morals and beliefs. I think it resonated with me so well because I feel that’s how I was raised my parents divorced when I was young so my father wasn’t around that much. also, when i wanted to address my mother with certain topic i found her old fashioned style of thinking annoying ;no disrespect to her, but what she would tell me and try to teach me just didn’t hold up in the world I was living in, the world i was in when i was by myself or on my own so technological mediums were like a parent, anything i didn’t know i learned how to do myself or from the internet outside of traditional learning in school and i feel that sometimes its better have technology raise you rather than your parents technology is always current, not to mean just do away with parents completely but a hybrid approach is the new and best way of doing things in my opinion.

As per the Professors Instructions I have created a blog and made a twitter @HerbToTheS.  I’m in the stages of re-activated my Facebook so I’m just going to admit I’m being lazy.
