My learning curve and curiosity goes downwards and then more depressed during the course. I like the beginning 3 weeks of this course much better. From week 4 and 5, big lengthy group discussion started to occupy the whole lecture. It seems like coming to a class became a social event. Nigel's teaching time becomes less and less during the class. And with little preparation, we have to initiate

I like highly interactive websites with a lot of graphic, animation and video experimentation. So a good website for me is to have an interesting narrative and fun to play.the pictures above are screen shot of http://www.requiemforadream.com/, follows the narrative of the film Requiem For A Dream, this website is divided into 3 stories of how people fallen into drug addiction. Stylistically,

I haven't done the examples of bad-good web design blog entry yet, (I had written about it in my notebook, but no time to put it on blogger because i have no internet access at home, and i need not to tell you that i just moved into a flat so there are issues that concern basic living necessities that need to be sort out) but we already have another

Our group project had the time of being trapped in defining “what are the elements of which a community is constituted?” but we decided during last week to move on to work separately to find our own examples of virtual communities and to see how they work out in their own different ways for their own different users.For me, I am going to be looking at http://www.queeruption.org/And to see how

The lectures in last two weeks were about definitions of community and blog/academic writing. I have to say that I didn’t get much out from the classes because I didn’t engage with the class discussion. I had all these arguments in my head already. So “What the point of arguing and add up confusions in the class?” I thought. I was hoping the class can clarify some ambiguities around these terms.

A mouse and a frog meet every morning on the riverbank. They sit in a nook of the ground and talk. Each morning, the second they see each other, they open easily, telling stories and dreams and secrets, empty of any fear or suspicious holding back. To watch, and listen to those two is to understand how, as it’s written, sometimes when two beings come together, The All becomes visible. The mouse

during yesterday's class, Nigel showed us the loc.alize.us website and try to convey us that there could be all different sort of ways of defining a virtual community: they are alot of photographs mapped out on a satellite map to show their actual location in the world, cross a spectrum of time, uploaded by different people. could this be a community? of people who are committed to using the

In last week, we learnt how to use Textbook to create a HTML document. so we created a web page from scratch. I wasn't familiar with writing the code at all, I had always choose the lazy way of using Dreamweaver. I am amazed how simple the syntax of HTML is. and I learnt how to put video files on a webpage. We also created a group Wiki page. our group is called DEKN, you can find us here
