Blogs = Converstation. Enter a Water Buffalo???

This video called “4 Generations: The Water Buffalo Movie” shot and produced by Robert Thompson shows one example of what good things can happen when people get together using the internet. In this video documented case, it was a blog in the USA and an American living in China that caused radical change to four generations in one Chinese family. Remember too that your website can be a launching pad for great conversation that can end in good. As you engage in this read/write/connect/reflect web space remember your audience is the world.

As you collaborate on this assignment with your classmates, show how you can watch a video and then deconstruct the story, tracking down all the individual elements. Use the checklist given to you in class to make sure you include all the elements of a good post.

Title: Must have the words “Water Buffalo” in it.

Google Alerts

Google alerts are a good way to track things on the internet by bringing them to your email inbox automatically. One or the ways people use Google alerts is to keep track of when something about them pops up online. Akin to searching for your name, know as a vanity search, Google alerts does a similar thing but sends the results to you without you having to manually do the search every so often. This is also a way for other information you are curious about to just show up in your email inbox.
