Blogging Around

JosephG: Captured thought: Making videos go viral to spread information

Joe's Blog was about videos on youtube going viral and how in the future these viral videos could be used to spread information. This blog inspired me to think of why do videos go viral in the first place? What does it take for a video to go viral.

Comment:I agree with your philosophy. It is amusing and heartbreaking to see what kind of videos go viral on youtube and on the internet. From this post you have got me to think more about how information could be spread by these 'viral' movies. Your Japan idea is awesome! I feel thought that the reason this is not really working in the real world is because there is nothing that makes it out of the ordinary, the skills it would need to go viral. I hope that someday this will change. Thanks for the inspiration to think about this Joe!

Dijanam: Captured Though: What If There Was No Time

This post was experimenting if there was no time. This post challenged me to consider it in my own life. And also how life would be different if there were no time. Would our lives be the same? Would humanity change?

comment: Wow this is so deep! But this is a thought that rolls through my head too every once in a while. It's a scary but very real thing to imagine. From what I've pondered I've realized that it would be chaos without time. Our lives are programmed down to the precise minute in time and without that programming many people would be lost within their own life. You have a great point though without time people would be able to learn to deal with chaos and management skills that we call time management nowadays. You should try to challenge yourself and try to live a day without time. No clocks or watches or checking your phone... maybe you'll learn something from it!
