This past week I have been quite allusive of my blog and uni in general but I am back and ready to go (mostly). Networked Media is proving to be quite an interesting and complex idea. The online community is more than just being on the web. The next part of the course is to do with community and interacting with community. We have to delve in and immerse ourselves in a particular community. After a few days of actually deciding what I wanted to be apart of, I started to think well what is the best way to get across my ideas and words to a community. Then I thought well I have photos on my blog accompanying my posts so why not start an Instagram. It allows me to post many photos that I have and add comments to them.
So I did. I created an Instagram with the username @just_go_there. I set it to public and I was so surprised at the reception I have been getting. I only have two photos on there but through the use of hashtags and following similar subject accounts I have been getting some good likes and comments. I have been able to interact with the people viewing my content. I suppose the prospect of what I want to do with this Instagram account is actually interact with people who comment on my photos and also comment and communicate with people on their pictures. But for now I am fairly excited.
