Petition for more online classes.

So, I loved class today and we had it on the computer. BUT, i did get some crazy looks when I started laughing out loud (sorry other library people). But, I think that since this is a media 2.0 class, we should have another class like this. It was interesting because it was a lesson but way more participation was going on than in class. We got to make our little funny comments, and still stay on topic, for the most part (Full House got us off topic for a few minutes, another lol moment)! Anywho, I enjoyed class today. And I enjoyed our readings we had to do for it. I think that Planet Money Podcast set Coulton up, but hey thats just me. I guess I wanted a blanket with sleeves. And like Coulton said, his business model is one that can be duplicated, it has been duplicated, in fact he had duplicated it from the industry. The only difference is that he is not 'mainstream' but he makes all of his profit. He doesnt have to worry about lawyers and promotional strategies. His fans take care of him, because he is devoted to his fanbase. And I think that is what is required now a days. But thats just my opinion.

  1. I'm with you, Kimberly. I love the classroom on campus too but some classes like this one helps to really show the power of Media 2.0. in very tactile ways.

  6. Sometimes the drift is the gift. It is the small comments that make online discussion become more like a conversation.
