Thoughts on Creative Project

I think that we have a lot of great ideas for this project.  With forming a social network site, it was certainly hard at first considering trying to get 20 peoples opinions to agree is hard in itself.  But with such a topic, we are all very knowledgable on this subject.  Social networking sites are something we are all very familiar with, which snowballed into tons of different ideas for this project.  I think that once we get it all together, we're going to come up with an awesome ending product.  Incorporating others opinions on social networking is good too, because then we'll fully understand what it takes to create the ultimate website, made for our users.  I think it will good to come up with our own ideas for DubU which would make our site different then others, not just take "screen shots" from websites such as facebook or twitter.  With all of our creativity put together, I think we will be able to create an amazing idea for DubU!

Found

I have never heard of Found before, but looking around it really interested me as a reader.  Why is it that we love to read watch and learn things about other people that we don't know at all?  It's like it makes our lives seem better by reading things by other people that are more dramatic or embarrassing.  Reading some of things in Found magazine interested me, but I'll never understand why.  For example, when the boy confesses his love to his substitute teacher.  I liked that one in particular because it was almost creepy to me, and I really like creepy things and situations (as long as their not happening to me).  Well, when I say "like", I mean its purely entertaining to me.  I wasn't able to view a lot on this website because it kept giving me error pages.  However, I think this is website I would like to visit in the future.  Reading things like this make you interested in what's going to come next; the next bigger, better, weird thing the next person will find.  But not only did I find kind of weird things on this page, I also found something that sparked a little bit of saddness.  Someone found something that was written by a friend that had passed away.  That would make anyone sad, but then it is also uplifting when you find it because it makes you remember the great times you had with that person.  "Finding" things can create many different types of emotions for everyone.
