So why have I created this site?
Well this is my personal blog, I first started it to keep in
contact with friends and family, especially those who are overseas. I like to
keep in touch with family and friends, but I hate writing letters. Often I
would write a letter and it would take a month before I finally finish writing
it, by then events have passed and it’s no longer relevant. So having a blog is
just a faster way to keep in touch.
Then I found this blog to be great as a little window into my
thoughts.Sometimes it would be about wonderful food that I’ve tasted, or
beautiful and gorgeous places that I have visited or would love to visit, or it
could be a product review that have either evoked my wrath! Sometime it can be
a bit heated, like my rant about TodayFM, but what is great is that it is a
place where I can voice my opinion.
I love the fact that the Internet has allowed me a place to voice
my opinions, also I love the freedom that we have here in Australia to voice my
opinions and the ability to view websites without it being controlled by the
Government.
And surprisingly, years after I started my blog, I will now also
use my blog for University purposes. You may find a few blogs about e-learning,
online education, social media perhaps. All this is part of my Masters course
EDPC5003- Learning Tech. in Education & Practice. It has been fascinating
to be part of this “Slow Food – Internet” revolution. Digesting of why and how
we use the net…
Who knew that one day I would be using Twitter as my uni
assignment… imagine a future where we will be doing exams and quizzes via
tweets… Maybe slightly ahead of ourselves, but it is 2013 and we might just see
a hoverboard flying down the street with Marty McFly as my neighbour.
