Where do i start in mentioning what i've learned in this course this semester? I should first start by saying that this post probably will not accurately account for all that I have consumed. But this has been a very interesting semester and it was a fun class. I particularly liked the discussions in class and the feedback from all the students. Hearing each person's view on different topics made for better conversation in class and for more memorable moments. Of course since the class was Media 2.0 we learned exactly what that meant, as far as the long tail, niche cultures, media convergence, fandom, produsers, etc. There are many terms that now have a lot of meaning to them for not just me but i'm sure for everybody that was in the class semester. I enjoyed taking what we now know about the long tail and niche cultures and applying it to my everyday life. Needless to say that my everyday life consist mainly of sports but Media 2.0 is very much in the sports world in different aspects but now I just have a better understanding of how to interpret things.
I'm sure there were some other things I was suppose to touch on in this last post. But I don't have my notebook in front of me. So if i left something out, feel free to comment and let me know and i'll try to add some more.
I had a good time this semester and hopefully everyone else did as well. The internet is here to stay and it isn't going anywhere anytime soon so hopefully we get to see how it continues to affect our culture in the upcoming years but now we'll be able to understand the dynamics of it.
The internet may not be going anywhere (as in leaving) anytime soon but it is definitely going to change in ways we can't imagine right this minute. Enjoyed the class too, Danny. Best of luck with your pursuits
