Internet Rumors - Why You Should Never Share False Rumors ThatsNonsense.com Blog October 23rd, 2012 Article 2 of our 2-part blog It seems that on the Internet, clouded in the anonymity that it provides, we can become far too ignorant towards the consequences that our online actions can have. Online rumor spreading is a perfect example. That is, the willingness of many to blindly accept and thus circulate baseless, unfounded and often brazenly false rumors across cyberspace. Why so many are willing to help spread such falsities across the Internet – when in the real world they would likely be more sceptical – is a fascinating question with no easy answer. But one possible reason why so many rumors garner so much viral success is that many do not realise the possible consequences of their actions, possibly because those seemingly innocuous actions take place behind the apparent safety of a keyboard. Every false rumor has some kind of detrimental effect, and this article is designed to highlight those potential consequences that you may not realise exist.

Dunne & Raby Hertzian Tales Hertzian Tales: Electronic Products, Aesthetic Experience, and Critical Design Anthony Dunne The MIT Press, 2005 From the book jacket: "As our everyday social and cultural experiences are increasingly mediated by electronic products?from "intelligent" toasters to iPods? The cultural speculations and conceptual design proposals in Hertzian Tales are not utopian visions or blueprints; instead, they embody a critique of present-day practices, "mixing criticism with optimism." Very little has changed in the world of design since Hertzian Tales was first published by the Royal College of Art in 1999, writes Dunne in his preface to this MIT Press edition: "Design is not engaging with the social, cultural, and ethical implications of the technologies it makes so sexy and consumable."

Thomas Cook slammed for 'irresponsible' ad Thomas Cook has been rapped by the advertising watchdog for running a TV advert depicting harmful acts likely to be emulated by children. The advert featured a holidaymaker deflating a coach tyre with a pair of pliers so he could stay at the resort. It ended with him jumping into a pool, followed by the strapline “Holidays you won’t want to return from”. The TV spot sparked 118 complaints after it launched last December, with viewers challenging whether the advert encouraged anti-social behaviour and caused offence to victims of coach crashes. Of those, some 23 complainants raised concerns about the likelihood of the ad promoting irresponsible behaviour among children. Thomas Cook defended the advert and claimed the “horrified” and “outraged” reactions of the other holidaymakers in the spot indicated the behaviour of the man letting down the tyre was not condoned.
Technology Leadership: paradox “In the end, what’s at stake is not only the quality of life our children might enjoy, but also the quality of the culture that they will inhabit.” (Eisner, 1999) In order to unpack the philosophy of technology, we need to have some knowledge of the past, consider where we are in the present and give thought to the future. It may be helpful to begin with a definition of technology. Some authors argue the term “technology” was not introduced until the 19th century when the term was added to names of prominent institutions such as Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Prior to the 19th century people spoke of the “mechanic arts” or “invention” or “science” in contexts where they would use “technology” today. The term “technology” is believed to come from Greek origins where “techne” referred to art or craft knowledge.

Experts Divided Over Internet Changes to Language Since the first web browser appeared on computer screens in 1994, the Internet has radically changed global communication. With instant access to messaging and email, the ability to circulate commentary and opinion has revolutionized the way people communicate. This has had an affect on language and writing, but people still debate the scope of these changes, and whether or not they're for the better. Eleanor Johnson is a professor in the English and Comparative literature department at Columbia University who attributes a growing misuse of language to the explosion of electronic communication. "I think that text messaging has made students believe that it's far more acceptable than it actually is to just make screamingly atrocious spelling and grammatical errors," she said. Johnson says that her students, over the past several years, have increasingly used a more informal English vocabulary in formal assignments. "For instance, using the word 'preclude' to mean 'precede.'
