The Wonderful Professional Blogger, Lori!!

The spaker, Lori is  a really amazing blogger. She told us how to manage a blog and social network in terms of a professional. The whole story of her history which she spoke was all interesting.  We were addicted to her  story. I felt like she was an entertainer, so I might be able to say she is real professional. She gave us  from general information of social media to more details of social media. Especially, I was impressed with the details. For example, the wall background of a blog is white is better..  I had thought the white color is boring before I listened to it, but,,.  It’s very functional knowledge.  Fortunately, my wall color of it is white. It’s really simple, but easy to read I think.

She mentioned Twitter is agreat social network, in contrast Jeannette.  Actually, for me it is not so useful, but according to her, it depends on how to utilize Twitter, so I might change my mind or be changed my mind.  She carried conviction.

Lastly, she emphasized “ Don’t be afraid and hesitate to engage in social media.”  If you follow am appropriate way to use a social network, you do not need to care about anyone who criticizes you. That is right. Sometimes we have to have a strong confidence if you think I stay on the course to do not only social network but anything.

Lori, Thank you for coming to our class to lecture about social media and tell us your very exciting stories. I had a really good time with you!!

My Case Study.

Hi everyone,

I hope you all guys are spending a great time on this weekend, but today it's a rainy day,,

Our team case study was about National Geographic. It was a fun source, but on the other hand, it is included various serious contents which we have to make the earth good condition.  National Geographic uses 7 Social Media mediums : Facebook, My space, You tube, Twitter, Flickr, Blogging, and Widgets to provide their information

As we can guess, FB is the best organized social network of them I felt because it includes the general whole contents and segments, such as pictures, posting, and good interaction. Besides, I get used to using it is one of the reasons. Even though Fb is the best social network for me in Nat Geo's, some of the others are also good systematized. For example, Flickr is very simple to understand their contents. They focus on pictures. They provide each subject, and the each subject has a lot of nature photos is likely to be more fun than others.  One more example, Widgets, their segments are mainly animals, environments, and green guide. I think it deals with a more serious themes compare to others. Generally, their contents are what is going on in the earth, and they show its situation on their videos more than pictures. It's also well organized. As a result, I thought each social media has some good points and features, therefore, it's not bad to have some social media tools for any organization because how we think of each social media medium depends on me and you!!

Thanks,

Have a great weekend, everyone!!

I ran stats on my personal sites.

Hi everyone,

It's a rainy today..

In my Blogger case, I constantly preview and check out my blog 2 or 3 times everyday.
Of course, on Wednesday it is more than the others day.  I usually try to post my topic until Sunday,
so there is no big movement of my posting day on my blog.
My pageviews of last month was 96 times.  I think it is not bad.  Most of my audiences are from the U.S
,and the others are from French, German,Japan, and SouthKorea.   As we know, it means they are my
classmates.  My page views by the main browser and operating system of my audiences are Safari and
Macintosh because I basically use Macintosh when I post on my blog and most of my audiences use
Windows. For sure, I previewed my blog the most times in our class.  My page views has been increasing
so far. It's inclinable.

In my Twitter case, I have 18 followers , and I'm following 25 people.
I've done tweet 16 times. These mean  I'm not a heavy Twitter user.  I think Twitter is more for notification
because of only limited words.  Most of the posting on my twitter are kind of advertisement.  Some of the
followers post many times every day, so my wall of it is fulfilled with the postings.
That is why I don't use my Twitter a lot, and it is more complicated how to utilize than such as Facebook.

Thanks everyone,

Have a great rest weekend!!

Ken.
