Ja Morant

 https://voicethread.com/myvoice/thread/33193088

This blog is about social media etiquette and why it really matters, especially when you are a public figure. Social media etiquette basically means thinking before you post, being smart about what you share, and understanding that anything you put online can affect your future. The blog talks about what happened with Ja Morant when he went on Instagram Live and showed a firearm. The video spread really fast, and a lot of people were upset because he is a role model. Because of that, he got in trouble and was suspended, and it hurt his reputation. This shows how one bad decision online can turn into a big problem in real life.

The blog also explains how the situation could have been avoided if he made better choices and thought about the consequences first. It talks about how he could fix the situation by apologizing, taking responsibility, and showing that he learned from it over time. It also gives examples of better things he could have posted instead, like basketball content or positive messages. At the end, it explains what I would do if I were in the same situation or if a friend were, like staying calm, owning up to the mistake, and learning from it. Overall, the main idea is that social media is powerful, and you always need to think before you post because your actions can have real consequences.

    This is the first post that mentions protecting your reputation as to what Social Media Etiquette is. Even though weapons are not illegal how you use and show them could be seen negatively especially from a large fan base. Not everyone endorses the use of firearms and showing one during a live event could give the wrong impression especially while driving and not a firing range.

    One thing that stood out about your post, is how you gave alternative examples of things Ja Morant could have posted that would have ben better for his career and reputation. This situation shows how being careless on social media can have lasting consequences.

    I really liked your "What Would I Do?" section on Slide 8. The emphasis on taking an honest break from social media to learn from mistakes is a very practical and mature approach to reputation management.

You can search for your favorite artist, make your own playlists, and even download songs to listen to without WiFi. The app also suggests new music based on what you already like, which makes it fun and easy to find new songs. Apple Music also helps artists and music businesses. When people stream a song, the artist can earn money from it. Artists can also see how many people are listening to their music and where their fans live. This helps them plan concerts, sell merch, and grow their careers. Another cool thing about Apple Music is how it brings people together. Friends can share playlists and show each other new songs.

Music helps people share the same interests and emotions, and Apple Music makes that really easy.

Gmail Smackdown Jimmy Casey

 https://youtu.be/jNXUe2g4b0M Gmail is a popular email website made by Google that lets people send and receive messages online. In my presentation, I explained how Gmail is more than just a basic email because it has helpful features like labels, filters, and a search bar that make it easy to stay organized. I also showed how to write and send an email, add a subject, and attach files using Google Drive. These tools make Gmail simple to use and really helpful for school and everyday communication. It’s easy to learn, and most people already use it, which makes it even more useful. I also talked about how I can use Gmail at Stockton and in my future career. As a student, I can use it to email my professors, get updates about assignments and classes, and keep everything organized so I don’t miss important information. It helps me stay on top of my work and communicate clearly. In the future, Gmail will be important for talking with coworkers, sending files, and staying professional ...
