Pandora vs Last FM

Pandora vs. Last Fm
Today in class we went to the computer lab and we discussed on over about Pandora and last fm radio on the internet,
Well when before we left the class the teacher had asked us if anyone in there knew about this before and I was surprised that not really anyone in there knew about them and I thought I would have been like the last one to know about it since im like one of the youngest students in that class but in fact I have know about these sites for about a year and half now ha wow does the time fly by no?
Well since I already had an account with them already I was use to this since when I was in high school last year and I had nothing to do in my computer class I would just log on to the site and listen to the music until the class ended or I had to work on some class work in there but these sites are convent if you want to know a name of a song just search it and you will usually find it there.
And to me I think Pandora is a little better because when you search for a song on last fm you tend to have way more commercials just to listen to one song and they some times give you the wrong song and you have to be more specific with them and when you use Pandora yes they give you a verity but they have a closer type of songs to the one you wanted in the first place and well the one thing I got to say is that I do not like it when you wont let you listen to more then just that station if you do not want to listen to the list they give you and have to make a whole new station but hey its all good because its just music in the end and you can find it any where on the net but easier on those sites.

Well to say I did not have my writing center appointment until Tuesday and this paper was due on Monday well at least I got to get my time there and turn in my paper I know its not really good that I went in late but better late then never right.
Well my experience in there was something I really needed because I went in for a format structure but came out with grammar like punctuation, commas and run on sentences.
But to say over all the experience was great went well helped me figure out what I needed to add on to my paper I needed to turn in since it was already a day late.
My reflection on this whole paper was alright I have nothing really to complain about ha not like I would have anything bad to say since its only been my second time having an appointment and what I have to say about that place is that their there to help you out get to the point and very friendly to be honest at first I did not see why we had to go in there and have to get a signature but really is a helpful place if you are looking for help on what you need and a good grade.
And to say that maybe next time I should get my appointment earlier so I do not have to turn in my paper late and have to go to school on a day I do not have school and to add that also I do not live anywhere near here but that’s on a different level of what I am talking about, but next time for sure I am going to try to go in before the rough draft is due better yet then having to stress over it makes it easier on me and my grade because I will have more time to rewrite my paper as many times as I need to.
Also next time I want to go in with questions about my paper make it more use of their time and mine.

Today this morning in class we had to log in to our blog accounts for class work out strategy as I see it.
Well anyways what we had to do is go on to someone else’s blog and read up to two different entries and comment them or as many as you wanted I guessing because I think I did three. Okay but back to what I was saying is that when I went in and read one of my team members entries I saw that the way they try to type up what their saying is no where near what they sound like if you really got to know them on that level you would know what I am talking about.
To sum up this whole experience it was a good one where did not really have to work much on it just had to take some time to a side look up someone read their blog and come up with a comment went pretty well if you ask me.
I would like it if we were to have to do this again because you get to see where your peers in your class are trying to get at and what not you get me.

Reflecting on what went on in class today we had to come in to class and learn about a new method to help us out on our next essay that was assigned for us. About someone else first vlog and what went on during the time we were watch from begging to end basically a descriptive essay.
So Mrs. Crawford showed us a new way to help us line up the time sequence on the vlogs we are written about. its call a timeline and what happens with that is what we do is list in order from begging to end what went on from every little detail we can think about also we got to be very descriptive about it of course its going to be a paper we have to turn in and get graded for.
In the vlog I choose was about this guy names Tyler who was a first timer for the whole vlog thing and basically telling us about himself and his day. So I’m going to use everything he said and write it down into a descriptive way on to the paper but of course using the senses we were told to use for instance what i saw heard felt emotions and the texture that came out of it all or maybe i can even use up the way he was talking towards us the noise that went on while we was making this vlog and the background with all of those senses I can make out a well written out paper and i got to say that this method is really helpful towards the paper we got to write.
To sum it all up I got to say that the experience was a helpful one it helped me figure out how this essay should be started since its always the hardest to start just because so many thing to start off with but one real way to begging with.
Over all I think that this method also helped me find a way to kind of start my other papers that are going to be presented to me later on and that its one good way to get our reader to actually be interested in what they are reading and so on and so forth.

The Other Tyler. First Vlog

So Okay were suppose to go to you tube and watch the peoples first vlog video and then come here and blog about it. well doing what I’m suppose I bumped in to this vlog which I will be using for my essay well its about a guy named Taylor things about the guy is 18 while making this video he was bored on doing so and has blondish hair I like it though. In this vlog he comes out saying that really he has nothing to say he’s doing making it for the heck of it.
Works at Starbucks Just like I use to ha, so also he’s sort of random at times he starts dancing well if you can call that dancing since he’s still sitting down not saying he can not dance just stating a point.
Oh yes and another thing he lets you know is where he got his screen name from well simple theirs already some one named Tyler Oakley and he would watch he’s videos and another inspiration was about another person and so now so he got interested in it so he went for it and he’s so in all of this he came out with his name The Other Tyler, since Tyler Oakley was the one doing it big and he would be the one that no one will know about for now. Basically around of about of what he said switched in to my own words type of thing.
Well now to be able to explain why did I pick this vlog and there being so many to chose from was that hes title to his video caught my attention I know what you probably might say what kind of answer is that but hey you do not see me going around give you a hard time about what you got to blog about right so that’s that. Vlog Numero Uno was the name and I’m guessing the uno caught my attention since I speak Spanish kind of thought he would know so too ha yeah I know dumb right oh well he did not look like he would but what can I say hes eyes are to dye for that’s the main reason though eyes are to capture for, If you ask me.

Vlog Intro

Today we as a class were suppose to watch this video about the beginning or how you tube became to be.
Name of the video is called “An Anthropological Introduction to You Tube.” Well what I can say that I got out of it would be that you tube opened so many new way of communication.
Really what their trying to get across is that people tend to act differently to the different type of viewers they receive because when you are you tubing you really do not have a clue how many how and when you are being opened up in a new window and are being watched.
Not like you can stop them you made it public meaning you are speaking to the public,
In this video the man who is narrating is a teacher who is doing something I would call an experiment since he is teaching a method if I can call it that instead of just observing it their in the action too meaning that they are not only reading about it in the books but also their in part of it as well.
After observing this video left me to think about things that were popping in to my head at the time I was watching it. Things like what if I was to make a vlog I mean wow I’m already a terribly shy person in person it takes me time to get use to the person I’m talking to face to face to even come up with a whole sentence.
But what can I say that’s me and I do me. Ha
Then I thought about how Soulja Boy came to be by one simple video then all the possibilities that it would come out of so maybe JUST maybe one day ill come up to it and just go for it like taking the cheese.
Well this Mike Wesch guy made varies point when he was presenting all of this ideas and comments about what he had he’s students come up with and about what the world is coming to not meaning in a bad way but how they are expanding in various ways.
