Blog Post: Web 2.0 Video

This video I feel was created to reach an audience of everyday web users. This video was made to show us that every little thing we do on the web is a contributer to that which makes up the web. It also shows us how much faster we can communicate today with the web. The video starts of with written text and shows us how sloppy and messy it can be. He then switches over to digital text and shows us its versatility. This videos purpose was to let web users know the impact the web has on us to day and what things we can accomplish with it.

The creator of this video used a unique style of ethos, he was surfing the web speaking to us only through text. This was such an interesting way to communicate, to the audience; it correlates with his message that the web makes it fast and easier to communicate. I do not think the video would have such a powerful message had the narrator of the video been speaking rather then texting. The video was very fast paced but it was necessary to get all the information across in that short of time. The narrator of the video was typing almost faster than we could read, again using ethos to convey his message. The speed of this video gives it its structure, had it been slower paced I feel the audience would get board and not connect to it as well.

The arrangement of the video was also ver nice. The video went from big to small, the context of what was talked about started of simple then went to very complex. Every thing in the video connected and had a certain flow so as not to confuse the audience.

Blog Post 1: Quotation on Writing

"There are two kinds of writer: those that make you think, and those that make you wonder."
- Brian Aldiss

This quote is interesting because these two things, thinking and wondering are very similar. Brian though feels that these are the two catigories of writers purposes that distinguish writers. The context of this quote I feel is him trying to simplify a very broad topic to people. His argument is that there is only two types of writers, ones that make you thin and ones that make you wonder. His audience is anyone who reads his quote. I feel that this quote is not completly true because you cannot narrow down such a thing like the different types of writers into two catagories. This quote I do like though because the purpose and contex is interesting to try and understand. I feel that his audience is fiction writers, because he is a fiction writer himself. This quote if you take the time to think of it could be true in the sense of just fiction. He might be trying to say that there are two different types of fiction writers. He doesn't say this though, but if I was to guess this would be my first.
