PRP - Social Media Research
Posted on 28/07/10 at 12:48
Having chosen to write my research project on social media, it was then my task to come up with a question. However, I realised this was not as easy I had first thought.
I wanted to get a question into my head, and then work from there, researching in the right direction with that, however I noticed fairly soon on that this is not the way of going around it.
I noticed that I was struggling to come up with a question, so decided to research instead. This has enabled me to get started on my project and get the ideas flowing - knowing I want to write about social media and branding in some format, this has given me a great base to work from.
I have started putting together a research scrap book, full of newspaper clippings, spider diagrams and quotes. This will serve as my research book where I can go to it to quote from and to have all my necessary research available to me when I need it.
I have got to the point now where I have a fair few facts about social media and I have begun reading a book on branding, however now is the time to move onto the wider context (a few more ripples in the pool of ideas, if you will).
Just thought I would post up my progress so far and that I will soon be heading into the wider context area.
I am also receiving and reading the media section of the Guardian every Monday too.

Toy Story 3 Review
Posted on 25/07/10 at 18:39
What a film!
If you haven’t seen it yet, you must do. And I’ve probably now ruined the funniest part of the whole film with the image above, but that shouldn’t sway you!
Toy Story 3 was not only a great film in itself, but a brilliant 3rd part and final piece to the Toy Story trilogy.
The trailers would have you fooled that it’s a film that’s all about new fun toys and how they get on in a play centre. It is that, but so much more. Join Woody, Buzz, Jessie, Rex and the others on their hilarious, emotional, exciting and clever adventure around the neighbourhood, delving into play centres, garbage bags, waste trucks, boxes and bags as they try to escape their way out of the hands of the rowdy and rough tiny toddlers of Sunnyside.
Toy Story 3 will have the adults splitting at the sides with laughter and the kids on the edge of their seats as the cast say goodbye to each other as they’re lowered into an huge waste furnace – in what promises to be one of the most emotional and captivating scenes within animation this year.
A fantastic end to a film saga that kick-started the animation industry and got it noticed. A must see and one to take all the family to, no matter what age they are!
