http://barbaramorey.blogspot.com/2011/04/blogger-vs-celebrity.html
Barbara's Cyberculture Blog: A Log of my Encounters in the Unknown Depths of the Internet. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Blogger vs. Celebrity. I found a really interesting article this week on Tech News Daily about how bloggers are surpassing celebrities as sources consumers trust to recommend products. When these decisions to take blogger advice pay off, the consumers are more likely to return to blogs and other social media for further recommendations. A change in producer/consumer relationship is definit...

Barbara's Cyberculture Blog: A Log of my Encounters in the Unknown Depths of the Internet. Monday, January 31, 2011. Convergence Culture: Chapter 5.

Barbara's Cyberculture Blog: A Log of my Encounters in the Unknown Depths of the Internet. Wednesday, February 23, 2011. While searching for an article to do this week’s blog post, I discovered the Pew Internet article on “the rise of apps culture.”. I found it especially intriguing because it went into so much detail regarding the users of cell phones in general as well as users of wireless Internet and apps. I think it says a lot about our culture that 35% of adults with cell phones have apps. The youn...

http://barbaramorey.blogspot.com/2011/04/augmented-reality.html
Barbara's Cyberculture Blog: A Log of my Encounters in the Unknown Depths of the Internet. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Benkoil describes Augmented Reality as “layering digital information onto the physical world” (Young qtd. by Benkoil, ¶ 2). The most common applications of AR (augmented reality) today are on “smart” handheld devices like iPhones and Androids. You can also look at real estate or historical data about a building and magazines are even using AR that functions in conjunction with computers.

Barbara's Cyberculture Blog: A Log of my Encounters in the Unknown Depths of the Internet. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Cause Global: Social Media for Social Change begins by stating that everyone used to think that the Internet would bring on “a more open and democratic society” (Stepanek ¶ 1). As the Web has evolved over the years, however, that idea seems to ring less and less true. Data aggregators, like Google and even Facebook, actually decide what information we see online. They may get upset and wan...

Barbara's Cyberculture Blog: A Log of my Encounters in the Unknown Depths of the Internet. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Making an Imperial Walker? I found a really great article this week about “How to make an Imperial AT-AT Walker from Star Wars.”. Due to a grassroots movement among fans, attempts may actually be made to construct a real Imperial Walker. Despite engineering issues and intellectual property concerns brought up by Lucasfilms, enthusiasm for the project has not waned. Supporters have to first...
