This blog is written by a published author. He has written and continues to write books about software or code. In this blog post he discusses authorship in terms of open source. He makes an argument about how writing in general should be treated more like open source software is created. I am using his assertions to help development my claims that sites like webook.com are open source communities that allow authors to share ideas.

You tube is a website where you can find uploaded videos ranging anywhere from concerts, music videos, tv shows, movies, and public uploads.

This s a site that reminds me of the Sims, but has gone above and beyond what the Sims can do. Second Life is a 3D virtual world where users can socialize, customize an avatar, and connect with and meet other people. You create a person and then join this online community where you can meet other people in this "second life world" at the same time.

DearDiary.Net offers you a fun and safe place to write your online diary (also known as weblog, blog or online journal). DearDiary is highly customizable free to join and a has a lively, thriving online community you can interact with.

A place to ask questions, voice opinions and find friends. This website is very interesting. People can go on and ask questions regarding religion or music, or religion vs music. They can upload videos and just get opinions on them, or comment/question the latest entertainment news. You have to join to post a question, answer, or comment, but you can browse through the site without joining.

This site is set up exactly like Google.com, but instead of searching the entire web it only searches Twitter messages. The purpose of this site (if there is one) is to type in whatever word or phrase you want and it will search through thousands of Twitter messages and bring up the ones where your words appear in. For example if I type the word "school" into the Twitter Search, it will bring back anyone's status that currently has the word school in it. This site also represents multimedia authorship because it taking people's tweets and allowing others to read them freely without knowing whose status it is. I never asked for anyone to search a word and to use my tweet just because it comes up on this search engine. I would like read about the terms of use in the Twitter website and if it does state that your tweets are open to anyone, because I think it is truly crazy how there are websites designed to spy and allow others to read what you are typing.

CELEBDAQ is a celebrity stock exchange game. Instead of shares in companies you buy shares in celebrities. The aim of the game: to make as much profit as you can by buying and selling 'shares' in listed celebrities.

This website is basically just an article describing how an editor named Nick Douglas compiled together a book called, "Twitter Wit". This book is a collection of Twitters who tweeted him their wittiest "tweet". The wittiest tweets will be seen in this book. This article gives a small description about the book while also explaining how the contributors were given no royalties for having their "tweets" published, just given a free copy of the book. This brings up the question of, who does then get credit? Will editor Douglas and HarperCollins receive a profit off others "tweets", while the actual contributors receive nothing?

Thi basically describes why people use Twitter and what it can do for you. This will help me with my research project.
