My summary of my findings on my personal blog.

Hi classmates,

Are you ready to masquerade on Halloween day!?

How will I measure my return on investment ?

In my blog case, of course, how many response I get for my post is primary. Most readers don't response to it, just read the post because they don't have enough time to response to all and reading other posts takes long time. Now our class has about 25 students, so for me one or two response to my post is enough.  Three responses are great. If one classmate response to it, other classmates may be interested in my post. Then, it is more likely to get more responses from other classmates, so how many response is important. I may be able to say at least my classmates who response to my post concern about my brand.

Next, timeliness is valuable. If a classmate response to my post immediately, I think something is good with my post. I may be able to consider the classmate want to tell me something valuable.

The last measurement is how many word in a response a classmate post on my blog.  It surely depends on a situation, however, basically we measure more words are better because more words equal more information and details. Information and details can be profitable.

On the other hand, if I get a negative response, its reputation may spread rapidly. That's why also many responses and words and timeliness can be a disadvantage for my brand.

These all are just my ideas or image!?  Actually, I don't know these exactly.

Thanks,

Have a great weekend, classmates,

My interest and topic.

Hello classmates,

Are you having fun on this weekend!? I hope so!

This time, I am going to mention my interest and topic is the global warming, so
my question is "What is global warming and greenhouse gas?"

I've already known the major reason of global warming is caused by greenhouse gas,
but I didn't know what is cause of greenhouse gas exactly.

I learned the some major reasons of greenhouse gas from WIKIPEDIA and some sources

Some sources are :
http://globalwarming.com/
http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/science/topics/globalwarming/index.html#
http://library.thinkquest.org/CR0215471/global_warming.htm
http://environment.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/gw-overview/

Cause of global warming can be divided into three groups : air pollution, water pollution, and
destruction of environment.

As is well known air pollution is one of the large issues. Smoke exhaust of industrial
establishment increases around the same time that development of the economy.

Water pollution is also one of the major issues. Sewage contamination is a large question.
People aspire improvement in their living standards according to natural growth of  
population because people often has competitive consciousness. Cooking and laundry make
much living drainage.

         Global warming is deeply committed to nature.  Nevertheless, people carry on the destruction
         of the environment. People do forest destruction in order to do estate development. 

         For instance, they have built a lot of houses and apartments. Also, they have done the development

         of golf courses for their business and amusement. 

        

         I  picked up some of sources which I learned. 

         Why is this topic valuable for me?  Because I'm interested in eco-friendly goods and recycling, 

         so I want to work on to conduct environmental conservation activities after I go back to Japan.

        

         I think global warming is one of huge problems in the world, so not only I also all people should

         boost awareness of ecology to protect the earth.  

         What do you think about global warming? 

        

         Thanks,  have a great weekend, everyone!!

This is my VLOG.

Hi classmates,

Did you have a great weekend!?

Finally I created my VLOG,,    Actually, this is my first time to create my self-introduction video.

Honestly, it was a tough work for me because I didn't know what my history was the best to introduce
me by myself.

My challenges were that I explained my job experience simply and correctly and I expressed
my natural character without inflated self-image.

I enjoyed to reexamine myself. so this was a good chance for me and my future.

I attached the VLOG, so if you have a free time, please just check it out!!

Thanks,

Have a great day!!

I participated in two virtual communities!!

Hi everyone,

I hope you had a great weekend.

I participated in two virtual communities.

First,it is the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks community for hiking because I like hiking, nature and any national park in the U.S.

At the first post, I asked the members how many days I should plan to see around Sequoia. After

that, some members gave me a couple of recommendation, and then they gave me some good specific 

place in Sequoia and much details of the planning, so I expanded to ask about the response to plan my
Sequoia trip efficiently.

Another, it is the gravestone community because

my job is a masonry work and I specialize in gravestones.

First, I asked the members that there is any organization at which I can learn how to make a gravestone in the U.S because I want to improve

the market of gravestone in Japan.

However, my question is a kind of particular question, so it seems that they are struggling

to reply an accurate answer.

I have been waiting for any response so far.

Thanks,

KEN
