The tree where I would read 2001: A space odyssey. A very special place to me! The place that helped re-ignite my passions! Science and Nature will never leave the world!

To be honest I learned a lot more than I thought I would about blogging and personal branding through my #Fdom class (Fundamental and Digital Online media). It taught me that social media was a tool, and not just a past-time for kids to socialize and ignore real human interaction. It provided me with a sense of balance for my own personal social media accounts. The tool I disliked the most was probably twitter, but that’s probably because I haven’t quite figured out how to use it to my advantage just yet. However, it is cool to follow my idols, or organizations through it. The tools that I found the most interesting were the wordpress blog, our Html coding assignment, and the coup de grace, Storify! Storify, really kind of blew me away with its interface; this was where I realized how far the social media industry had come. It takes so many elements from multiple facets such as facebook posts, twitter feeds, blog sites, personal posts, and all to tell a story while combining them all into a smorgasbord post. Personally, it was the funnest I have had with a social media site. More fun than facebook, and twitter combined, but cuts it pretty close to the wordpress blog…maybe that’s because this blog has been the fruit of my labor for the past few months. The organization of the class could be a bit more improved, however, I understand that it was a spillover class that wasn’t supposed to exist, so I was perfectly content with the material and how it was taught. It is a viable class. Especially for my future, since it helped me understand the concepts of personal branding, and how the site can be used to benefit one’s own economic standing with the easy advertising that it can bring its user. Since I’m an advertising major who needs to like using social media; this class really helped cure me of my disdain for social media sites. It’s all about AWARENESS!! Most of all, this class helped me start the blog I have always wanted to create opening so many different doors for me to explore my interests! Thank you Mr. Blasingame for a great semester!
