P2P

What is file sharing?
File sharing is the ability to access and transmit data from one device to another. What can be shared? The answer to this question is pretty much everything: movies, music, electronic books different types of documents or even software.

What is P2P File sharing?
I decided to borrow the definition of P2P directly from Margomin. According to the article, P2P file sharing is a peer to peer file sharing which allows individuals to access media files using a software program that searches and locates computers that have the file that is wanted. P2P file sharing allows users to share files online through a network of software programs.

What are some examples of P2P file sharing?
I believe many of us used P2P at least at some point in our lives. I am familiar with uTorrent Classic and BitTorrent. It was relatively fast and save way to download files. Also, there are a bunch of P2P that no longer exist such as Kazaa, Morpheus, Limeware, and others.

How much time do we spend while watching/reading the news? Probably more than 30 - 40 minutes daily! Some people spend hours! Can you imagine how awesome it would be if we have the option to absorb the news we are interested in within the seconds?! This new media will be arranging all news into the set of codes. Reading or watching those codes will take seconds, however, the information summarized in it will expand in our minds and will provide a complete and detailed picture of all the news we wanted to know. It will save a lot of time and will give us an ability to learn and be aware of much more information we never had time for.

Blog v Wiki

Every single day some people following others. Even though it sounds scary - it is true, however, it is not that scary. In fact, millions of people are following each other's blogs, Instagram/Facebook/Twitter pages, or YouTube channels. Actually, blogs are a great way to follow trends, things you interested in such as travel, books, food or business. Usually, it is fun or interesting to read some blogs, to learn more about the topic you like, but blogs are more than that! It can be a safe environment to share information that is hard or dangerous to share in real life such as bullying in high school or distribution of drugs. While reading the article Brooklyn Blog Helps Leads to Drug Raid I understood the importance of blogging. It is good to realize how powerful blogs can be and they can actually make a difference.   The first thing that gets on average people's minds when they hear the world Wiki is Wikipedia! It is really impressive! Even though it is not the most reliable...

Wiki So Far

Working on Wiki seems easier than it actually is. It took a while for me to understand how to navigate and edit or add dome information. I did not create any new pages. However, I spent time reading the content that already existed and thinking about my contribution. I noticed minor grammar mistakes and edited it. I added more information to Pinterest (Fashion) and Fingerlings (New Media In Toys). Also. I am planning to add more content to Fashion especially to the Makeup section. Also, I did not add any images yet, so in the next couple of days, I am going to work much more on Wiki.
