Lonelygirl15 wouldn't exist without the explosion of broadband and the advent of YouTube – and partly by the appeal of a hybrid form of storytelling. Lonelygirl15 is a mashup of homemade video diary, soap opera, and mysterious, hint-laden narrative like Lost.

In short, they were planning to exploit the anonymity of the Internet to pull off a new kind of storytelling, and they worried they were on shaky legal ground.

Goodfried's advice was simple. "If anyone asks point-blank if you're real, don't answer the question," he said. "Don't lie to people. The answer is no answer. In my mind, it's the equivalent of not lying. But if people talk to Bree like she's Bree, that's fair game."

As an upcoming Teacher, I will teach in the inner-city school system. My students will learn that regardless of what society labels the city they come from and how society expects them to be just another statistic of “the hood”, they are someone and they will be someone successful if they so choose. I will give them support, care, and a chance to see themselves as people and NOT just another statistic or number among the uneducated. I will share with them my willingness to help them achieve despite of the surroundings and experiences - if they were negative.

I enjoyed the article “Understanding Comics” by Scott McCloud. It was entertaining, funny, a little complicated, but true. I agree that “we” do program ourselves to believe that a representational symbol is the actual object or person. Take a look at how street signs have an affect on us. If the word Yield was in the red octagon with white letters, we would STOP instead of Yield. Why? Because we would associate the symbol and not read the sign. Think about it!! We are so used to seeing the red octagon as STOP that we don’t read the signs, we just see them. It would be the same as taking a minute to comprehend what we are actually seeing versus what the word says when we have to read the words red, blue, green, yellow out loud. It will be difficult. If we took more time to examine, read, and process information then our lives would be much smoother to live.
