ADVANCES IN SOCIAL MEDIA

Social networking is a communication tool via the Internet. The most popular are Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn. You can find an old friend, a long lost uncle or even a job. The information is there to be debated and disected to exhaustion. The dangers are also there and must be realized before an unfortunate encounter takes place. To go about carelessly and foolishly displaying information of a personal nature may damage of even ruin one’s reputation, so be careful!

According to the journal article: Social Networked Media: Advances and Trends (Izquierdo),

3-D glasses in action!

The future of social media interaction is evolving from a new generation of media tools into a richer, more life-like multimedia experience for web users. The progression of these tools is likely to include the 3-D element that has become popular in the motion picture industry and in Television. This feature would greatly enhance the experience and provide for a more personal perspective to social networking than the current text-based interaction. Capturing the user emotional state and physical activity would be key to this interaction and of course would be heavily technology dependent and requiring resources currently not available on most devices.

Email Communication

Email is a standard communication method that has developed into a sophisticated tool. No one knew just how important email would become when it was first introduced. In 1971, the first email transmission takes place. It is not the instant success that it would seem. SMTP, which is the “simple mail transfer protocol” was introduced in 1982 and it became the standard for email. Spam, a term derived from an obscure “Monty Python” sketch which illustrate that the canned meat of “Spam” can be served with every meal, and thus equating to the serving up of “spam” email.

            Email addresses contain the elements: user ID, host name and top-level domain. Email is sent via an email client. Some popular programs are outlook and thunderbird. An email client holds email that is downloaded to your computer from an email server. These servers use protocols to format the messages. Each client typically uses several protocols to ensure that messages can be read. Email messages are composed of several elements that allow for what is sent and who receives the message. The recipient is chosen via the “to” line as well as the “cc” address. The topic is contained in the “subject” line, while the content is displayed in the “message body”. There are many and various features included in the different email clients and most are universally available.

The etiquette of email is something that is unfortunate sometimes overlooked. I doubt that there is anyone who uses email who is not aware of this. Common courtesy seems to sometimes be lost in the “cyber world.” We should take care in what we say and just how we say it. It is common sense that should be our first thought when deciding on email or social media posts.

            Windows Live mail is an email client by Microsoft Corp. It has many useful feature and functions much like its big brother Ms. Outlook. You can use “Live Mail” to work with your Gmail, Yahoo or other web base account. Web based email is simple and functional in design and is convenient in that you can access it from any Internet connected computer. You have access to all of your old and current folders. There are many different web mail services to choose from including Yahoo and Gmail.
