As some of you may know, and as others may understand, I
have had a difficult time finding other bloggers who share my themes.
If you've read any of my posts up until now, you may realize
that the purpose of my blog is to research and discuss the mediums by which
humans communicate. Although my blog is far
from exhaustive, I've tried to pull many different, sometimes seemingly
unrelated topics together, to unite them under one banner. Unfortunately, the more I researched my own
topics, the more I realized I might be one of the only people online to connect
these different subjects into a whole, and then blog about them. This being the case, I will not be choosing
other specific bloggers in a community as my sources, but rather I will focus
on what I have done to create a community of my own (or what I could do to
expand what I have started on into a larger community.)
I will also be able to share methods and processes of research
I used in finding my information, and share my difficulties and successes in
this area.
This has been quite an experience, but it’s not over yet!
As we begin to wrap up our blogs (with only a couple of
posts left) I’d like to share with you s picture I found. Although I had a difficult time finding other
blogs discussing my themes, it was surprisingly easy to find some info-graphs which
fit my blog almost perfectly. This one
has been my laptop desktop for a few weeks now:

(One more note. If you notice the URL for the website I got the picture from, it's a business website. I found that the vast majority of Google hits when searching keywords relating to my blog such as "Communication" or even phrases such as "How humans communicate" resulted in business related communication; A very different kind topic!)
Speaking of twitter, do you think twitter is affecting the way we are communicating? Or memes? I find myself communicating with my brother with memes in order to express emotion.
ReplyDeleteThe idea of communication, and the study of it, is very interesting (to me at least), and I'm just surprised that no one else is really blogging about it. Maybe you'll start a blogging revolution!
I like that you discussed the business-related communications angle. Do you think you'll be going into business? I wonder if you could consider a post that discusses how we should apply the content you share with us? Maybe that's for a summary post...what do we do from here on? (Or that could be a question for the ages).
ReplyDeleteAs always, this is a thoughtful post.
