Wiki So Far

The content I plan to add into the wiki is a page dedicated to electronic sports otherwise known as e-sports. The gaming page of the wiki touches on this on many of its subsections from the League of Legends competitive circuit, DOTA's the international large prize pool, Overwatch dedicated regional teams and much more. I feel with all the information presented already and to be added, a dedicated page just to e-sports is appropriate and many workings and information from the gaming wiki page will be referenced accordingly. In addition I plan to add details of the history of e-sports from looking into the earliest competition of the game pong, to the large stadiums filled viewers watching gamers playing for millions of dollars. Details of prime competitive circuits, e-athlete's and the legal processes that involve e-sports will all be accounted for in this wiki page for a full understanding and view for the reader.

  1. I am also into e sports. I personally love to play League of Legends. I have a friend with a Youtube channel called Youmuus and he gained over 400,000 subscribers just because of League. Unfortunately, he is not good as he was back then and lost some subscribers. E sports are greats events to hosts because it integrates the community with the same interests.

A type of media that I feel will become extremely popular over the next few years is virtual product placement. As such this concept does exist with some products online offering full 3D views for users to see from all angles they wish to see. In addition, Virtual Reality playgrounds which allow users to place 3D models next to real life people and objects is also becoming more popular as things such as placing a virtual TV in your room to see what it would look like or placing a 3D model of an animal to compare size can all be done with smartphones. However I feel we will see this concept being taken further with advancement in 3D and graphic modeling software as well as hologram hardware where full objects can be displayed in full fidelity and high quality image quality. Fashion brands will be keen on this as 2D images can now be seen in 3D for a better look at a dress or bag as well as virtual models wearing the clothing being advertised so manufacturers don't even need to crea...

Blogs vs. Wiki

In this internet age we are living in, data and information is easily accessible to the masses. Books and magazines are slowly becoming less popular as online ebooks and news articles are becoming increasingly popular both in the appeal of being able to access on any smart device around the world as well as its easiness in storage compared to its real life counterparts. Along with this transition, Blogs and Wikis have become popular forms of information outlets that anyone in the world can access as long as they have access to a computer and an internet access. Although both of these information outlets serve the same primary function of spreading information to the masses, there tone and purpose both differ in what they are providing and what they are accomplishing. UNSW Sydney describes a blog as an, "An online journal (web log), diary or news column with posts in reverse-chronological order and options for readers to comment." As such these blog posts are more concern...

Advice

A part of Baruch that I could feel could improve with the use of new media is the news of Baruch and the spread of general events and programs happening on the campus. As it stands there is already a weekly newsletter and a number of social accounts on twitter and Instagram that touch upon this but I feel every one of them could do a better way to convey this information. Rather then improving on this, other ways Baruch could expand on this information is applying some new forms of media. While there is a newspaper I feel that it could implemented online as well detailing the information of Baruch in its status and events and could perhaps be the replacement/addition to the weekly newsletter. Other ways of news getting spread to student in Baruch is perhaps applying a internet news program whether it be live or through a podcast. This gives a more live look on how the college is as well as gives experience and a learning opportunity to students who wish to partake in this.
