Con l’ascesa del Social Network c’è la caduta del Blog

Spread the love

Sembra una legge fisica. Più sale la popolarità dei Social Network e più si assiste al continuo cadere in basso della popolarità dei Blog e delle piattaforme di scrittura libera on line. I blog hanno rappresentato per Internet, una sorta di segno che rimarrà nella storia. In molti li hanno definiti l’identità democratica di Internet per eccellenza. Infatti, gli utenti pubblicano di continuo su queste piattaforme, le proprie idee, i propri consigli, e soprattutto tutto ciò che pensano senza remore e soprattutto sentendosi protetti da un velo di privacy che li vede celati da un nick name.
L’aspirazione di avere un proprio blog, curarlo, e magari diventare un sito che va a finire nei preferiti, resta il top per un utente a cui piace dire la propria. Molti sono quelli che hanno creato il loro sulle piattaforma gratuite quali WordPress oppure su Splinder, o su altri ancora, ma oggi molto è cambiato.
La rete Web si è sviluppata ed è entrata nell’era del Web 2.0 facendo spazio a nuove forme di comunicazione quale il Social Network. Questo è andato sempre più a sostituire il Blog di prepotenza, creando una nuova figura: il Profilo. Il profilo che significava un tempo i dati di riconoscimento dell’autore (di un blog), oggi è fatto da tante piccole affermazioni di pochi caratteri che vogliono essere equivalenti ai buoni vecchi post dei blog. Rimane comunque il fatto che ci sono molte possibilità offerte dai social network di pubblicare post lunghi (vedi note di Facebook), ma sembra che comunque siano diversi da ciò che si poteva assistere per le vecchie presentazioni. Quindi cos’è questa? La fine del mondo del blog? Ebbene secondo i dati smistati da Technorati per l’anno 2008, solo 7,4 milioni di persone che hanno un blog (su un numero di 133 milioni di utenti registrati), hanno tenuto sotto controllo ed aggiornato i propri contenuti blog in un periodo che risale agli ultimi sei mesi. Questo dato, tradotto, significa una perdita di terreno dei blog del 95% rispetto ad altri siti. Cosa significa tutto ciò? Siamo veramente decisi ad abbandonare questa tecnologia per sostituirla con i social network? L’ardua sentenza ai blogger.

  1. The fish collectors hoping to save rare species from extinction
    [url=https://phanfom.org]phantom wallet[/url]
    In the rural town of Petersham, Massachusetts, 78-year-old Peter George keeps 1,000 fish in his basement.

    “Baseball, sex, fish,” he says, listing his life’s great loves. “My single greatest attribute is that I am passionate about things. That sort of defines me.”

    All of George’s fish are endangered Rift Lake cichlids: colorful, freshwater fish native to the Great Lakes of East Africa. Inside his 42 tanks, expertly squeezed into a single subterranean room, the fish shimmer under artificial lights, knowing nothing of the expansive waters in which their ancestors once swam, thousands of miles away.

    Due to pollution, climate change and overfishing, freshwater fish are thought to be the second most endangered vertebrates in the world. In Lake Victoria, a giant lake shared between Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, over a quarter of endemic species, including countless cichlids, are either critically endangered or extinct.

    But for some species, there is still hope. A community of rare fish enthusiasts collect endangered species of freshwater fish from the lakes and springs of East Africa, Mexico and elsewhere, and preserve them in their personal fish tanks in the hope that they might one day be reintroduced in the wild.

    “I’m a hard ass,” George says. “There is hope.”
    Insurance
    George has been collecting fish since 1948 when, as a four-year-old in the Bronx, he would look after his grandmother’s rainbow fish. He soon developed “multiple tank syndrome” – a colloquial term used by fish collectors to denote the spiral commonly experienced after acquiring one’s first tank, which involves the sufferer buying many more tanks within a short space of time. He has not stopped collecting since.

    Now, George sees himself as a conservationist; his tanks contain what is known as “insurance populations” – populations of endangered fish that are likely to go extinct in their natural habitats. He believes that when the time is right, they can be taken from his collection and returned to their homes. “I would never accept the fact that they couldn’t be reintroduced,” he says.

  2. Xavier completes thrilling comeback, Mount St. Mary’s advances as men’s First Four comes to a close

    Wednesday saw the men’s First Four come to a close which means only one thing: the 64-team bracket is officially set following No. 11 Xavier’s thrilling come from behind win over No. 11 Texas and No. 16 Mount St. Mary’s victory over No. 16 American in Dayton, Ohio.

    The Musketeers trailed by as many as 13 points, but their offense came alive in the second half behind guard Marcus Foster and forward Zach Freemantle to down the Longhorns 86-80.

    The senior Foster scored a team-high 22 points while Freemantle, on his way to 15 points, threw down a dunk with a second left to seal the comeback win and ignite the fans at UD Arena, which is just over 50 miles away from campus in Cincinnati, Ohio.

    With just under four minutes remaining, Xavier went on an 8-2 run to take a 78-74 lead, their first since the early going of the first half.

    Musketeers head coach Sean Miller crowned Wednesday’s game as “one of the best” he’s been a part of.

    “I thought we were dead in the water two different times,” Miller told the truTV broadcast after the game. “But that’s the one thing about our team — the resiliency of our group has always won out for us. Just when you thought we weren’t gonna make the tournament, we kept winning. Even in this game, just when you’re like, ‘It’s not gonna work out,’ we have a funny way of staying with it.”

    The Longhorns did not go down without a fight as guard Tre Johnson scored a game-high 23 points in the loss.

    Xavier will face No. 6 Illinois in the first round on Friday at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.
