The Next New

        A great addition to new media would be the ability to allows device users to be able to “smell” what they are watching. Up until now, we are able to experience a video through two of our senses which are sight and sound. However, I believe that it would be very interesting if we can incorporate a way for content creators and manufacturers to be able to add a feature that allows users to smell what they are watching. This does not have to be readily available on every single device but like VR headsets, it can be an attachment that users are able to purchase and use. This can come in very handy if there is say a cooking show and the chef wants his/her audiences to smell his cooking behind their screens. This can very well lead to a new dimension of marketing and content sharing/creating.

    If we could develop the technology to smell something remotely that would be insane. It would open up so many possibilities for virtual and augmented reality. Like more immersive video games, cooking shows in your own house. It would be so cool!

It goes without saying, like many great concepts, there is bound to be pros and cons to them.

Advice

There are many effective methods that can be implemented in order to make Baruch college more well known. By leveraging social media, the potential of getting the school’s name out to more individuals will be really great. To start off, there needs to be more sets of eyes on the school. More people must first recognize that the campus simply exists. This step is not too hard. The school can use many different social media platforms in order to better promote themselves such as through tweeting about any new live events, posting anything interesting on their Instagram page or having students interact more by allowing a q&a forum on Facebook or such. Consistency is also key. Pages should regularly be updated instead of once in a while since it will promote students to go back to visit the page more often. The student’s opinions should be considered prior to making any decisions, this allows them to feel involved overall. I personally believe that physical flyers are not as effecti...

Blog: Social networking sites

1.        Facebook It is almost like the jack of all trades in the social media world. Users are able to share photos, articles, plan events and use a very efficient messaging system to communicate with their peers. Sometimes, this may even be seen as a down side since it tries to be the best at everything. It is very simple to get started on Facebook and signing up is very straight forward. 2.        Twitter On Twitter, users are only able to post, read and share tweets with a limited amount of characters at their disposable.

This is a more niche platform and users usually communicate amongst themselves since it is not common to share content directly from other third party platforms. They also incorporate hashtags quite a bit on the platform which allows users to easily categorize tweets and ideas into topic based. 3.   ...
