How to make the world a better place part 1 the media

One of the most powerful tools every person has is information. If you control information you can control people's judgements. The goverments of the world have already control what information the people have had, this dates back to when the only way to talk to someone far away was to sent a letter that could get lost, when radios were forbidden, when phones weren't common place. Today we have the internet and now almost all people can speak freely to anyone in any country.

But the media still haunts us, the media will freely call opinions facts and facts opinions, not tell us the biggest things or the smallest, and their payed by the powers that be. Why don't we do anything about this. We have the biggest information database in the world, The world wide web. Devices that can record video and sound have been around for years and theirs prices have drop so much over the last few years.

I say if the media won't give us what we want, we should take it on are own hands.
It doesn't have to be that high quality, If 100 people for every state would buy a video camera of some form of recording device with video and audio would let us see and hear what's going on in the world, we would have over 5000 thousands eyes and hears in the world. Don't just record the things related the state, goverment or country, Shared anything that happens at school, at work, at the park or in the street. Its only because they are dark alley that crimes can occur freely. With information comes freedom and power to stop problems before they begin.

If you can't get camera or even if you can, a blog can be just as helpful. Increasing awareness will make are world a much better then now were people can freely alter the facts as they like and get away with it because theirs no where else to turn. Thank for you for reading this, please share your thoughts.

WWW:Wake by Robert j sawyer review


This is a review on the book Wake by Robert J Saywer. Note there are spoiler in this review, I'll try to avoid putting too many on here. The books are about a girl name Caitlin Decter. Caitlin is many things: A math genius, a master of using the web but, she is also blind. One day she gets an email from a professor in Japan name Masayuki Kuroda whom thinks that he can cure her blindness. She goes to Japan and has implant installed, however she still can not see.

She returns to her home in Canada and is told by Kuroda to download in update to the software in her Eyepod the hardware pack that's suppose to corrects the signals from her Retinas. However instead of seeing the real world she see what is undeniely the world wide web, and there's something in the background, and its getting smarter by the hour.

This book really makes you wonder about the true nature of our consciousness and the consciousness of other animals. It talks about hundreds of different topics such as self awareness and theory of mind. About cellular automata and the true values of all this, as well as more casual things such as the life of a blind teenage girl and her autistic father. This is a book really worth a try.
