Responce to, The First Amendment of Social Media: Freedom of Tweet:
This blog talks about how in the U.S constitution allows freedom of expression from government interference, but in the case of social media sites, it is totally different. People dont neccessarily get to say whatever they want.
This blog also mentions that the real world and the online world barely have a line between them. The article states, " We must realize that what we think we’re saying might not convey as desired." This means words can be translated in so many ways, when you blog it or update your status. Basically anything you type online.
This blog shows how peoples intention is often eclipsed by abbreviation, so online there is a difference between what we say and what is heard.http://www.briansolis.com/2010/11/the-first-ammendment-of-social-media-freedom-of-tweet/
Response to, Twitter analytics could have been a money-making machine:
This blog explains that Twitter couldve been making tons of money, if at first they wouldve had a page or something for businesses to colaberate total times mentioned and get calculations about tweets.
This article explains that twitter kind of offers this for free, which this article is saying is stupid because they couldve had businesses paying at least $10 a month.
I think Twitter shouldve made this extra tool right when Twitter got popular. This wouldve allowed them to make much more money.
Response to, 10 Unique iPhone Photography Accessories:
The Iphone has a decent camera which also includes tons of cool apps to make it even better, and choose different styles. This blog talks about the different accessories the Iphone offers for photography like shooting a video, still life, or just more professional style photos.
The accessories the Ipohne offers are the tripod holder, the owle bubo, the flip cage with Iphone 4 mount, the factron quattro cases, the zacuto zgrip Iphone jr. handgrip, the usb effect lenses, the griffen clarifi, the joby gorilla, a memory card connector, and the glif.
All of these really help promote the Iphone for people who love photograpy. It works just as good as an expensive camera, but you can get it all for your phone, so it all turns out cheaper.
This is a great way to promote the iPhone. The accessories are super helpful to the Iphone as well.

2. The percent of online population that are using location based services is 4%, this is a decrease.
3. The article states that a lot of people aren’t using these services because they arent very serious, and dont really get you anything. Its just a game and tries to be all cutesy.
4. Gowalla and Foursquare really attracted early adopters.
5. They are not reaching the majority of consumers because its more of a game then a marketing app. People complain that they dont "care" if they are the major or not. People are more serious.

Gap Logo 11/11/10
1The original logo was a simple navy blue square with white lettering spelling gap. The new logo is now Gap written in black bubble letters with a blue sguare at the corner of the "p".
3. This new design did not last long at all, the design was only used for a week.
4. The new logo was used October 11th on their website.
5. "Crap logo yourself" is a website where you can make new logos for gap. It was made into a big joke on twitter.
6. Gap changed the logo in hope to make the logo more modern and fresh and was part of a plan to "elevate the brand"
7. I liked thier original logo, and i think it was stupid to try and change it because thier other logo is already so popular and familiar. I do see how they were trying to make it more modern but it wasnt necessary.
8. They said the new logo looked like crap and the should just stick with the original.
