How to break google

In the next
coming weeks I will attempt to “break”, I’m using the word break in a
sense to mean something, where an input is given and returned with the
wrong, little or no results. There is also this sense in the word where google doesn't return any results becasue google doesn't index what I'm searching for. It is in my attempt to use all media types,
when ever the algorithm that googles fine geniuses set up breaks. It
will be logged as a screen cap, uploaded to this blog and will use the
following tags on tumblr, #Stumpinggoogle #google #break
#ibroketheinternet #googledungoofed as well as a tag on what search
broke google. Now, if the search item is an image and there are no
return results, said image will be uploaded to tumblr with the same
tags. There is also this idea that I'm attempting to explore of google bombing and attempting to get my alter ego, Bobby Hatts to be the main result when googled. I will also attempt to use google bombing to create a wiki page based around my alter ego.
If you have anything to share, please notify me. I will gladly upload legitimate google breaks on to the blog and you get a shout out or something uninteresting like that.
P.S. I will also be uploading articles and research papers

Row Row Your Boat Gently down the stream

Merrily merrily merrily merrily, life is but a dream.
"The system of the “universe as a whole” is such that quite small errors in initial conditions can have an overwhelming effect at a later time. The displacement of a single electron by a billionth of a centimetre at one moment might make the difference between a man being killed by an avalanche a year later, or escaping."
This class seems to be intended on exploring the possibilities of what digital publishing can do, where does it go, where did it come from, why is it the way it is now? These questions are questions because there is no back story on digital publishing. There are no ripples in the lake from the boat named SS epub ( I think boat names are suppose to have womens names because its some weird tradition of personifying an object with intimacy). These are new grounds being broken by those of us who wish to choose to par take in creating these epubs. Our ripples in the lake will be felt just as the ripples of the book written in the library of Alexandria are felt today. On a basic level this class attempts to achieve the knowledge of how epubs work. At its most intimate level ( I should have called it at the love level or something dumb like that) its attempting to figure out what digital publishing means, its an attempt in trying to explore the standard and break it, its an attempt to spark an idea to create a large enough ripple in the lake that everyone feels it.

Fuck Social Media

Lets be realistic here. We all have this stupid thing where in which we attempted to connect to other people in our "circle". Some of us think that the connection to people really help with <insert thing here>. However like this article attempts to make a clear distinction on what social really is. I tend to think that social means in a sphere of interaction with another person that is in front of you physically. The reason for this thought process is the fact that in all other attempts to create a social interaction on the net isn't really social. Trolls will never troll in real life. People for the most part tend to be nice in real life. They tend to have less of an anger. It always seems to me that when we bring social interactions to a sphere where in which the user is not allowed to be face to face with the other user the meaningful interaction is lessened by not seeing real reaction.
Albert Benschop, the Amsterdam pioneer of web sociology and editor of SocioSite.net, proposes that we overcome the real-virtual distinction altogether. He makes an analogy to the Thomas theoreme, a classic theory in sociology, when he says, “If people define networks as real, they are real in their consequences.” For Benschop, the internet is not some “second-hand world.” The same could be said of the social. There is no second life, with different social rules and conventions. According to Benschop, this is why there is, strictly speaking, no additional discipline necessary.
Benschop brings up a good point in the fact that we can no longer think of this social interaction as unreal. It is a network that we all see as real, there for the following consequences are also real.
More on this in class.

There is a correlation between Gutenbregs press and the digital "press". Two technologies forever changing history. First the creation of moveable type, in which the time it took to make a book was severely cut down. Allowing information to move freely. The latter taking said information linking it to new information. In which allows a further distribution of said information. Both technologies allows for accessibility of information to the user. The interesting idea that played out for gutenbergs ideas are still being pushed through. E.g. revolutions that used printing presses to over throw governments. In correlation to this idea we see that the ability of the digital "press" the future of the digitization of everything will lead to government overthrow maaaaaaan.
