TED Talk GO

 In TED Talk, Wael Ghonim comes and introduces us to the "five challenges facing today's social media" and to "liberate society". Social media has positive and negative impacts. Some positive impacts are: ability to express feelings, ability to obtain knowledge, ability to communicate from far away, ability to work easier, and the ability to browse through new trends. However, some negative impacts are that the social media may be dangerous, can be hacked to leak personal info, bad rumors, cyberbullying, and addiction.

In TED Talk, Wael Ghonim talks about "five critical challenges facing today's social media". The five critical challenges are: 1. Rumors are getting out of hand. We don't know how to deal with rumors. Rumors that confirm people's biases are now believed and spread among millions of people. 2. We block and just ignore people who we don't agree with. It seems now we are just making our own echo chambers. 3. Just because we are behind screens and no one can see who we are, people think it is okay to offend us. People think it is okay to not treat others like human-beings. 4. Now because of the speed and brevity of social media, we are forced to jump to conclusions and write sharp opinions about complex world affairs. However, once we do that it forever stays in the internet. 5. The internet is making us talk at each other instead of talking with each other. 

Wael Ghonim also talks about 4 ways, but I only have 2, how we can "liberate the internet". 1. If we want to liberate society, we first need to liberate the internet. 2. To create a new media platform for conversations. Wael says, "As a believer, I teamed up with a few friends, started a new project, trying to find answers and explore possibilities. Our first product is a new media platform for conversations. We're hosting converstions that promote mutual understanding and hopefully change minds."

Now Wael Ghonim talked about many things about "five challenges facing today's social media" and to "liberate society". I hope this has informed you to try this.

다시 너를

매드 클라운(Ma..|


다시 너를 볼 수 있을까 
다시 스쳐 지나가 버린 
운명 앞에 서 있어
깨지 못할 꿈이었을까 우리 
멀어지는 너에게 
전하지 못했어. 
한번도

널 사랑해
내 깊은 마음속 
Don`t let me cry


넌 닿으면 없어질 꿈
녹아내려 버릴 눈
네가 그리워질 때면 
난 너가 돼 있었고
잡지 않았어 널, 
다시 올 줄 알고 
그리워하다 보면 
언젠가는 다시 볼 줄 알고
열병 같던 감정의 시작, 끝
그 시작, 끝에 서 있어

비상등처럼 어둠속 혼자 
우두커니 불 켜있어
아무리 생각해도 답은 넌데
가슴에 틀린 답을 적네
밀어내도 남아있어 
어느새 꿈속에 와있어

(I don`t wanna lose you
Be without you 
Anymore) 

생각해도 모르겠어. 
너 없이 사는 법

(I don`t wanna lose you
Be without you 
Anymore)

다시 너를 볼 수 있을까 다시 
스쳐 지나가 버린 운명 
앞에 서 있어
깨지 못할 꿈이었을까 우리 
멀어지는 너에게 전하지 못했어. 
한번도

널 사랑해
내 깊은 마음속 
Don`t let me cry


딱 하루 돌아갈 수 있다면
그 날로 나 살 수 있다면 
널 아프게 한 말과 
행동 되돌릴 수 있다면
널 덜 외롭게 하고 
더 꽉 안을 수 있다면
미치게 후회스러운 
그 하루 다시 내게 주어진다면
다시는 내게서 네 손 
절대로 놓지 않을게. 
내가 넌 예쁘게만 피면 돼 
널 위해서 가시가 될게. 내가 
빌어먹을 왜 몰랐을까 그때 
널 잡았다면 달랐을까
난 어차피 넌데
널 떠나봤자 결국
어차피 넌데

(I don`t wanna lose you
Be without you 
Anymore) 

생각해도 모르겠어. 
너 없이 사는 법

(I don`t wanna lose you
Be without you 
Anymore) 


다시 너를 볼 수 있을까 다시 
스쳐 지나가 버린 
운명 앞에 서 있어
깨지 못할 꿈이었을까 우리 
멀어지는 너에게 전하지 못했어. 
나의 마음을

아직도 울고 있잖아 
(Don't let me cry)
여기서 기다리잖아. 
가슴이 지치도록 
Don't say goodbye 
내 곁에 돌아와 
언제라도 찾아와

Digital citizenship can be defined as the norms of appropriate, responsible behavior with regard to technology use. 1. Digital Access: full electronic participation in society. Technology users need to be aware that not everyone has the same opportunities when it comes to technology

One device I regularly use is my phone and i mostly use it to socialize with people. A nice advantage of having the internet is helping always staying up to date with the world. Also another advantage is being able to communicate with anyone on the planet and this makes it easier to keep and store information. One disadvantage is you start to become unsocial in terms of in person another is you might get addicted to the digital world.

I really didn't know anything before this but one thing I could improve on is my digital citizen ship , in terms of getting more connected with the internet. The only true way too do this is start being more active on the web ( like anything)

You use technology all the time, it helps with everything, is i didn't have technology i wouldn't be coming to school on time. Also I wouldn't know what would be happening, also with out technology I couldn't get any work done. In fact I am using a laptop right now to due this assignment. My goal in life is to become a police officer and how will I be up to date \ or stay in touch with my team with out technology.



Thomas Edison

I think this quote relates to my life because my parents have always told me
not to worry about my grades. They said that socializing is way more important
than studying and raising grades. I think this quote is valuable because I also
think friendship means more than anything.

If you can end any one problem in the world, what would it be?

I would end financial problems..
Everything in California is raising its price and its getting harder for everyone to live in a home with a roof. If the problem keeps continuing most people are going to have nothing to eat or have anywhere to live; just on the streets. Most of the rent bills, gas money, and food has raised their price. If most of the water and gas had came to California we wouldnt have gas and water trouble. This problem is important to me because I sometimes see my mom struggling to pay the bills and get gas for the car.

Some solutions to this are to get more resources from other states. Other states such as Texas or New Mexico has a lot of oil/gas so their gas price is way cheaper than ours. For water, if people can stop throwing trash and help keep the ocean clean, we could have clean water everywhere. For homes, (this might sound selfish but) I ,respectfully, wish people move to other places so that land wont be hard to buy.
