2. My Blog
 I created two blogs in Blogger
 1st: http://blogwrittenforclass.blogspot.com/
The first one is mainly use for me to finish the homework of this
marketing course. I wrote four journals in this blog which name is “Yi
Zhou’s Blog”. And I receive just three comments. It is pretty sad but
I think it is just because I did not brand myself well enough. (counted
by Mar. 22nd)
 2nd: http://dorisas.blogspot.com/
This blog I created it for myself. I decided to write something
happen in my life in another language instead of my first language, so
the name of this blog is “Happen in Life”. I just wrote one journal until
now since I just establish it in such a short time. But I will continue
writing in it after this quarter ends even after I go back to China.

3. My Blog Con’d
 Writing online is really fun and free. You can write down
whatever you want to say and do not have to worry about
what others may say to you. Even though entertaining, it is
hard to run a blog for long time indeed. The most challenging
part is it is difficult to write journal everyday or in a regular
pace. Sometimes I may forget about blog or have nothing to
say. The worst thing may be forgetting username or
password. It may be the end of this blog. So it does require a
lot time and effort in writing blog in order to create a great
one.
 I will keep writing in this blog. Not only for entertaining
myself, but also hope people would find me and know me
through this blog.

4. Facebook
 The link to my Facebook homepage
http://www.facebook.com/doris8023sj
 For me, I sometimes post photos or status on my own page to
let others know what am I doing these days.
 I think the most effective way to attract people’s attention
for both individuals and corporations is highlight the most
important information in the topic or in short words. Since
there are too much information popping out all over the world
at the same time, the best way to grab people’s attention is
tell them what you want to convey in a very short time or
space. Then who interested in your posts or status will follow
you immediately.
 Actually my Facebook did not change after I have this
course. I followed some companies and celebrities before an
I will keep following them after this quarter.

5. Twitter
 1) My twitter account: Doris8023SJ
https://twitter.com/#!/Doris8023SJ
 2) I follow four companies and one celebrity:
Express: I usually buy clothes of this brand
Disney Parks: I love playing in Disneyland
Blogger: I am using Blogger right now
iHeartRadio: I always watching videos made by iHeartRadio
Ryan Seacrest: I listen to his shows through radio for years
 3) Weakness and strength of Twitter
I think the biggest weakness is it cannot upload photos. And the
limitation of word is too short.
The most strength is it is very convenience to express your
feeling at almost any time.
I will keep using Twitter in the future to track what others do
and what they say to know about the world.

6. Closing Thoughts


7. Closing Thoughts Con’d
 After taking this course, I know how important social media
is and why is it so important. In the past, I just regarded
Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other social media networks
as tools to see what are my friends doing recently. Now I
know that these tools can help my market myself even
without paying any money. So maybe when I looking for jobs
in the future, I will post information about myself on those
platforms in order to let more people than my life circle to
know me. The most useful way to let everybody know you is
you tell everyone who you are directly.
 I really gained a lot through this class. And I will apply what
I learnt here to help me solve problems in my future career.

8. Thank you for teaching me
and watching this slices!!!
