Social Networking


My thoughts on how I feel regarding the ability to edit and construct the perfect answer or question before pressing send definitely   affects the way we present ourselves.  Imagine if you were having a conversation with someone and said something you weren’t supposed to say.   For example, your friends surprise birthday party or the beginning stages of talking to a girl and you said something too soon, in which you regret you could’ve taken a few words back.  Texting, E-mail, or even video chat changes the way we word things, it gives us time to think of the perfect way to say something the other person wants to hear rather than out right from your heart.  In, "Identifying user behavior in online social networks" we see different behavior of online users that we wouldnt normally see outside the realm, as well as behavior patterns of interactions are different depending on groups and the media account that is being used.

AI stock picking machines that will work on algorithms which will produce projections of stock whether to buy or sell or hold a stock.These projections will be based on data and information by social media, news, company valuations and other sources. I imagine this product to imitate Amazon's Alexa or Google's Echo and use language to communicate with the machine.

Creativity and New Media

Here is my so-called, "Bitmoji" which associated with Snapchat the disappearing image sender.  I downloaded the Bimoji app and started to customize my avatar by going through an array of selections such as gender, hair style, facial structure, clothes, skin color, eye size, and I also was able to position my Bitmoji holding a drink by choosing from a selection of other styles and positions. Now I can use this instead of a traditional emoji.  I am sure most students would upload their Bitmjoi on their assignment as its the most trending in the avatar circle.
