Week 6’s Unlecture

There were actually a few things that caught my attention in the unlecture. One was of how hypertext and hyperlinks were created. When we click or share, it creates a network and stuff like that. I might have missed out in the readings on this but it does make sense in the end. This reminds me of Google Ads or any other internet ads. A click costs a few cents. That explains why Google is so bloody rich.Another thing that interest me was on the publishing your work. Everything starts off with 0 and I have to agree with that. Regardless of writing a book, or making a TV show it starts off with nothing. What I’m writing now is basically online and everyone can read this. I said can, not ‘will’. Who knows I’m the only one reading this? Reading what I write. That’s like writing a diary which you are the ONLY audience and everything written is private. One of the things I remember in the unlecture was writing a diary and reading it back does improve your writing skills. I should try one day…. hmm.. Another interesting explanation for hypertext is that it is like a song. In a song, theres a chorus and it definitely has repetition whereby you’ll understand more when you hear it again.”A Journey of a Thousand Miles begins with a single step” – Lao Tzu
