Podcasting and Internet

We have discussed and blogged about freedom and responsibility on the Internet. We then saw how this freedom means there can be great bias in webpages. Now we will look at two more topics, podcasting and safety.

After the class discussion, can you imagine how to use Internet media like podcasting and MySpace or Mixi pages to broadcast yourself? What are the benefits? Do you have a Mixi page? Why? How do you use it? Can you imagine the future of Internet media? What will it be like?

I don't have Mixi pages, but I think Mixi isn't danger for us. It is only we safe ourselves. I think Mixi's company should say about the danger and explanation how to use safety. I'm afraid of increacing crimes and events of the Internet media. Recently the bully scene was exhibited by You tube. It was filmed by junior high school student's cellular phone. Another, South Korea is increacing suicide for slander on the Internet. I think such things should be regulated the sight owner having a responsibility.

Internet Publishing and Blogs

Can we rely on the source? Can we trust the information we find in blogs.How do know if a blogger is telling the truth or telling lies? Is there a bias?

We must evaluate it by myself. Now there are many information .Especially on the Internet, we can see anything and anytime. But it is written by strangers, or anyone can write anything. So there are some wrong or vicious information inevitable. I think if you want to know some information, you see the official site is better.

1、In Japan, people think it is important to protect our original country foods. Because we have pride in our cuisine. And now Japanese foods spread to many country. If many Japanese restaurant wouldn't keep the Japanese cuisine, to eat them misunderstand not only foods but Japanese culture .

2, In other countries people think bringing other culture will be changed is natural. Especially palate is different for each other country, so we may change it. And it has been repetition for many years ago, then new culture created. I think it isn't wrong thing.


3, I think the Japanese page is biased because Japanese will protect only own culuture. To protect it is not wrong but right. However Japanese does it too much. Surely to teach how to cook Japanese food for foreigner is good. but I think the protect of governer isn't proper.

Privacy and Responsibility on the Internet

I'm a student in University. Now I study about internet security.

I have been using computers about 3years.

I learned about internet security a little 2years ago.

Then I didn't think it is important things.

Question1.
Do you think most people in Japan are aware of the dangers on the Internet?

No, I think Japanese don't have consciousness for the dangers of the Internet. Because the Internet has spread rapidly in recent years in Japan. Now the Internet is quite usual with everybody.

But the rapid spread and the convenience means a lack of consciousness about the dangers of the Internet. Especially children and old people are likely to have trouble. We need teach and notify people about the Internet properly.
