Practicum 2 - Natalie

Well in the past two weeks I have managed to accumulate 12 friends total over 3 social networking sites. 7 connections on linkedin and 5 on filmaffinity. Unfortunately, 43 things is lacking just a little.

I have created a personal profile for myself on each of these websites with a picture and whatever information is needed for each site.

On 43 things, I have managed to come up with 7 goals that I have listed to do and 2 that I have completed. My list of goals consists of: update my resume, learn to cook, get a job, graduate college, live in Israel, visit every continent, and save money. The two things I have done is study abroad and watch every episode of Friends.

On Film Affinity, I was able to rank movies and see others' rankings as well. I added 5 of my "movie soulmates" and can see their rankings and get recommendations based on my rankings and theirs. I have accumulated a list of recommended movies, and somehow most are movies that I've been wanting to see for some time.

On LinkedIn, I have made some connections based on searching friends of friends. I have used the extended network that I have created for myself in order to find others on the site. I have uploaded some work information, but had technical difficulties getting my resume up. So far, I have not made any new connections to people I already knew but have been able to expand my network with each person I add.
