Tuesday, February 20, 2007. QotW5: Excuse me, is that ME? Identity plays a key role in virtual communities. In communication, which is the primary activity, knowing the identity of those with whom you communicate is essential for understanding and evaluating an interaction. Yet in the disembodied world of the virtual community, identity is also ambiguous. (Donath, 1996). Ambiguity is the key in online identities. To illustrate, I am known as wideeyedmuse in Il Divo's Online Forum. Others actually approac...

http://astoldbydee.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 22, 2007. Establishing an identity and a reputation is equally important in face to face interaction or in an online setting. However, unertainty is a factor in the virtual realm and so there is a need to place emphasis on identity in order to facilitate interaction. It is also due to uncertainty that people are able to create false identity. Bargh, J. (2002). Can You See the Real Me? Activation and Expression of the “True Self” on the Internet. Journal of Social Issues, 58(1). When it...

It's For A Class Lar. Saturday, March 31, 2007. In his book, We the Media, writer and journalist, Dan Gillmor (2004) iterates the fact that readers know more than journalists themselves.

Stomp was set up by the Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) in an effort to stay relevant to a new generation (Chua and Reh, 2006). The nat...

It's For A Class Lar. Saturday, March 24, 2007. QotW8: Democracy The Internet Allows. It is mentioned in Kalathil and Boas’ (2001) study of the Internet in authoritarian regimes that the international community has long considered Singapore as a semi authoritarian state. Over the years, the Internet has without a doubt, helped China to achieve a freer state of existence for its citizens although the Chinese government still holds an iron grip as Kalathil and Boas demonstrate. Rebecca MacKinnon attested t...

It's For A Class Lar. Saturday, March 17, 2007. Tweety, twatter, twitter, is it a community or something other? What we do know is that it is yet another social networking service the Internet has to offer. You sign up for a free account, take some time to figure out how the application works and then you spend hours on end finding friends and strangers in the network to add on your list.

It's For A Class Lar. Saturday, April 7, 2007. Bonus Mission #2: Not a Game. I have a confession to make –Second Life did not interest me in the least bit initially. I would have never known about its existence if I did not have to take the COM125 class. Actually, that in itself is a lie. I did know about Second Life before I took the COM125 class. In fact, I learnt about Second Life through a friend’s blog. Perhaps the sexual screen captures of Second Life she had posted in one entry. Real people are si...
