I kind of like the point that Kleon is making, to let others learn from you and take the things that work. I believe that creativity/the creative process isn’t something that someone can own, so if you are able to help another person by what you’re doing, it benefits you both. I think that my …

I love this song, this singer, and this YouTube channel.

With the Trump inauguration around the corner, get ready for lots of passive aggressive tweets. — Katey Matragrano (@kateybug17) January 18, 2017

I know that this isn’t me or anything having to do with me, but this is what I sit in my room watching for hours on end, under the covers, while taking a break from Netflix.

Me and my sister in Disney World. I’ve been to Disney at least 10 times in my life and I will be going again during Spring Break. To me, it really is the happiest place on Earth.

So happy to be in digital stories 106 after waiting for most of holiday break to register for the class!

Hey ds106, I’m Daniel and I’m a computer science major. Check out a short introduction of me and my dogs on soundcloud here. I also have an exclusive interview with my dog Fina which is only available here. For constant updates, follow me on twitter as I take on the world wide web. Ready to …

I think that the Secret Agent theme is a good theme. I think that it allows us to have even more fun than we are going to have.  I have a few favorite fictional secret agents such as : Nancy Drew, James Bond, Sherlock Holmes, Jason Bourne, and Severus Snape. As for the real nonfiction …

Everything posted below was my way of saying hello! You can see my one dog Max, see my first tweet in years, hear a song literally saying “Hey” and lastly, a video I made last year that was used to expose the use of the hashtag and the power it holds. Enjoy!     Hey …

The first week of ds106 was not too bad, as far as content goes. Thankfully, I spent a good 10+ hours last semester bringing my domain up to speed for a job fair since I had not really used it since cpsc220. Due to this, it saved me a lot of time for both this […]

The secret agent theme is a bit corny, especially the first video I watched, but I can get behind it. It’s a bit cool to have a theme than just a normalized class discussion or so. It’s hard to say what we can make out of it since I am not entirely sure what we’ll […]

Reading this article, it is basically a mirror of what social media is today with the first three listed. Everyone is tweeting, facebooking, etc using all sorts of media to display their life to their friends and anyone who can see it. Personally, I don’t have the kind of patience for that sort of thing. […]

This is just a test to see how all of this works. If its working how its supposed to I assume this will post to my blog and look pretty amazing! I need a secret agent nickname….

I really like the secret agent theme in all honesty, however I personally have difficulty thinking of how things will be put out in line with this theme. On the bright side, a secret agent theme gives me license to use an alias which I vastly appreciate since I do not like my name online....

Austin Kleon’s “10 way’s to share your creativity and get discovered” was an interesting perspective on sharing creative content. His message was one of self worth and persistence in the face of being undetected in a sea of content. His system is one of constancy in the face of adversity, while making sure to give...

Week 1 work is done! I finished it all before the week even started so hopefully I can keep up with this work ethic going into the semester. The first thing we had to do was create a UMW Domain. Thankfully, I already had created one,  so I just needed to create a subdomain specifically … Continue reading "Week 1 summery"

Misson 106 is a good theme for ds106. It is a broad enough theme that we can go a lot of different ways with it, and really make it our own. I am not really into spy movies unless they are the parody ones, or comedy. Pink Panther is one of my old favorites, and … Continue reading "Misson 106"

Hi, ds106! Here are the social media accounts that I will be using for the class. Iv had a youtube account for quite some time but surprisingly have never uploaded anything. I decided to upload a boomerang that I made during finals week last semester. I have a twitter for personal use, but I didn’t want to … Continue reading "All the Social Media’s"

Austin Kleon’s 10 Ways to Share Your Creativity and Get Discovered was a wonderful, enlighting post. My favorite lesson was number 9, sell out. I follow a lot of digital creators and the number 1 thing they experience when they produce content is how much they are selling out. I never understood this because by … Continue reading "10 ways to share your creativity"
