Social media

Social media are media for social interaction, using highly accessible communication techniqes. Interaction between user means shearing, rating and taging, or to post comments on eatch other piqtures.

Since this assigment is about creating a blog, I thought this post could be about bloging as a social media.
Blogging is a word sat together by two other words, web and logg. Blogs are usally maintainted by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events +++

Personaly i have no experience with blogging, so I question: Why is blogging so popular? I dont think i will find a correct answer to taht question, since it`s induvidually. But I have read som peoples meanings: http://www.bitrebels.com/geek/why-is-blogging-fun/
blogger
There are several different types of blogs, the people behind them desides what their blog should be about. One of the biggest bloggers in Norway have over 30 000 readers a day. The girl i s16 years old and writes everyday events and fashion, here are her adress: http://tcmn.blogg.no/ 

What is so important when you are blogging?
Firstly you have to write so that blog readeres are attracted. Good bloggers have more than one post a day, and at leat one video a week. It seams to be a correlation between the numbers of post and and numbers of readers.

There are many people who comment on blog post, thay will provide feedback on the post. Sometimes the feedback is negative. Many bloggers delite their blog because the attention they, often the negative one. If you are a bloger read this: http://www.chrisbrogan.com/guest-post-handling-negative-comments-on-your-blog-post/

www.piratebay.org download for free



The piratebay is the worlds biggest BitTorrent tracker, where most of the material you can search for often is protected by the intellectual property.
It all started as a hobby project, but today the webside daily generating advertising revenue most people only can dream about.

The page was bred by a original critical interest group as a part of efforts to simplify file sharing. The piratebay consists of a directory where users can search for torrent files other users have uploaded.
Serviced provided by the piratebay makes effcient transmissions of large amounts of data possible.

This has both legal and illegal applications, witch has led to to that the film and music industry has spent considerable amounds of resources to close the webside.
In 2009 three persons named Gottfried Svartholm , Fredrik Neij and Peter Sunde was brought to trial accused of copyright infringement. They were sentenced to one year in prison and 30 million in compensation.

I hav chosen to write about this because the question either free downloading is stealing is mutch discussed, and is very mutch about the ethical aspekts we see. Anti- pirats hav set up with horror commercials were they compare downloading with stealing. Pirates belive this is not comparable when a copy is not the same as physically stealing.¨

Phishing

This post will deal with some of the risks you take when you share information online. 


Phisning a way of attemting to aqire sensitive information susch as usernames, passwords and credit card details. This is done by someone pretendning to be someting they are not, by masquerading as a trustworthy enity in a electronic communication.        








Phising is a growing form of computer crime Those behind developing steadily new tools and methods  for phising. A common approach is that a person sends out e-mails and claiming that they are form a large bank and wants you to enter information about yourself in any way. E-mails will be send out to a number of peoples, and they might say that there are some problems with the credit cards in this bank. 


How to protetct youre self from such crime?
There are several different programs online detection of phishing. Newer versions of browsers have protection against this. Yet user trainging is very important. If you are in doubt after reciving an e-mail you can directly contakt the bank to get confirmation that is actually those who are transmitting. 


It is also important to consider what information you give to other about youre self online. 
One must take simple precautions and be aware that you actully can be scamed. 
Scammer often have economic purposes, so credit information you musk be careful to deliver online. 
Many may think that this dosent happend to me, but everyone should be on guard to avoid a negative experience.
