Blog: Next New

As of today we have virtual reality otherwise known as VR, but only up to a certain extent. When we use VR we need a remote control to control what we do in it. I hope for the future to develop a better version of VR that I believe will eventually be possible. I want there to be a hardware system that can sync with a human's brain in which people can actually deep dive into VR. This will eliminate the need for the use of remote control. Their consciousness will actually be within the VR and practically sleeping in real life (unconscious in real life). This might sounds kind of scary, but if technology is of this level it will actually be really cool in my opinion.

The downside to this would be people not being able to differentiate VR and the real world if they are too into it. Long usage of this can also develop health issues due to lack of exercise and their diet would probably be bad. Therefore, moderate use of this new media would be recommended.

I got this idea through a show I watched in the past called "Sword Art Online".

    Hi Daniel,

    I really like this idea. It sounds crazy to think of having a technology that can understand the human brain, but to be honest... I really don't think technology is far from reaching that point! Sometimes I think to myself, "what will the world be like in 20 years?" It's hard to imagine technology becoming any more advanced than it already is, but I have no doubt that your idea will become reality soon enough.

    Hi Daniel,

    Your idea might sounds crazy, but all great ideas sounds crazy at first. I agree with Valerie and believe we are not far from it, the way technology is growing anything can be done in just a few years. I suggest you save this blog and look back at it when this actually becomes true.

Blog: Advice

There are many ways new media can be used to improve college experience for professor's and students. One way would be professors making a YouTube video of their lecture slides and voice recording as materials for online/hybrid courses. This can really help because just reading lecture slides might be confusing, so adding a voice recording of explanation would definitely help and people generally learn better with both visual and listening. Another way is for every student and professor to have a Facebook account for college use only. Every student will then be invited to a group by each of their professors so that the group is organized into every class/section. All materials, announcements, and grades would be posted to the group and things not related to the class won't be there. People can also share information in case anyone missed anything during class. This is definitely better than Blackboard because people tend to check social media more than Blackboard. Social medi

Blog: P2P

File sharing is what it sounds like, sharing files or transmitting files via networks or Internet. P2P file sharing is peer-to-peer file sharing through a sharing file software that is connected to other networks. P2P has a lot of benefits including saving lots of money by downloading files that you otherwise have to pay for yourself. People should take advantage of P2P file sharing as mentioned in "Take Advantage of P2P - not fear it" by King. I agree people should take advantage of P2P file sharing, but should definitely be careful when doing so. This is because all files are shared by other users and have a chance of having viruses and other issues. I have used P2P file sharing in the past and have had bad experiences. I was an inexperienced user back in elementary school and I was introduced by a friend to use LimeWire to download music, as a result it was indeed very convenient but I found out later to have a lot of viruses on my computer. It was later found out to be

Creativity and New Media

Image
In this 2D world there are many creativity possibilities. I made a "me" avatar as you can see standing on a floating rock. The highlight for me in this world is when I do quest/missions, especially party quests with other individuals in this world because I like the accomplishment of completing them. Just like it sound "party quest" is creating a group with up to 6 people to figure out how to complete the quest within a given amount of time. Everyone is required to think out of the box, show coordination, and help each other out. But of course this is not the only thing I did in this world. I also like to start my own mini business in which I sell rare items I acquire from quest or from hunting monsters. Oh, I forgot to mention the cute orange mushrooms in this screenshot are actually "wild monsters" as you can tell by that "danger" sign I am facing. Another fun thing is building my avatar's looks and attributes. I tend
