Applying

Today, we had our class test, it was reasonable.

After that, we were taught about reputation and authority & the difference between
citizen reporters and professional reporters who risk their lives to provide valuble information to us.

In our next practical, I have to find out about the purpose, accuracy coverage and authority on my website that I chose.

It is advisable for me to choose a website that is recently updated.

Secondly, In second life, we have to come up with a report on our gameplay and what we found out in second life.

Second life is quite entertaining, met some people that gave me freebies as well.
Other than that, I found out certain features like teleporting to friends, spawning items, and attaching them to my avatar.

Talking about yesterday, our group, Imam, Jereld, Yan Da, Heng Le and myself came up with a presentation that describes about citizen reporters. Though unprofessional and not motivated in delivering proper news, citizens are generally more scattered around the globe and could possibly have first hand view on accidents, incidents and usually faster than reporters. However, it is because of their lack of training that they do not give exactly accurate information even though they witnessed it first hand.

For example, about the uproar on Ris Low & her molester. These kind if gossip news does not benefit our country in anyway other than stirring up the interests of people that likes these kind of news.
