New Society Are You Interested???

EXTREME SPORTS SOCIETY!

After seeing the societies on offer i was sad to realise that there is no form of society that caters to the adrenaline junkie other than snow sports so i have requested to form a new society for extreme sports which will cater for the needs of roller blades, Skate boards, Bmx and possibly scooters, I intend to have arrange trips to various park through out England and possibly even further a field if the group becomes a success, As well as regular meet ups and other activities. I will also encourage the assistance of other groups such as photography and filmography so that hopefully some of us can get coverage and noticed if you want to take the sport further. But even if you just want to have a laugh with like minded people then please contact me also if anyone is welcome no matter your skill or ability. If you have any ideas please don't hesitate to contact me i am also looking for signatures from people to show NTU that we have a keen amount of students interested...

The Google phone I Phones demise?

With so many new phones being created daily it seems that the use for your basic laptop is going to be a thing of the past and with Google creating a new phone to rival the I Phone you have to ask your self what kind of effects will this have on society and the phone market in general? To me this phone is nothing more than a small version of your laptop or computer and then some. It has all the features, at a tenth of the size this to me shows that consumers are wanting all the features of laptops, computers and the internet but in a small pocket sized package. It seems that the smaller the item the more people want it much like the mobile phones predeceases, bulky brick like items which you wouldn’t exactly look “cool” pulling out your pocket in a big queue. Phones got smaller but the technology got bigger as did the price. This had positive and negative effects on society as you can imagine phone thefts went up, people stole to sell on or to keep for themselves because society in a way deemed it “cool” and “hip” to be up to date with the latest technologies. I feel much like the I Phone the Google phone with have the same stigma attached to it people feel the need to be “cool” and have the latest gadgets and sadly some people will not acquire this threw lawful means. But there positive for the Google phone outlays the negative much like the I Phone the amount of information now available to people at your fingertips is increasing at a ever growing rate, mainly due to this technology and down to the fact its so readily available much like your standard computer but can now fit you pocket, But like the price of a personal computer when it first came out expense was a huge issue and only the privileged could afford one, but in the last ten years every home now has one and I feel it will be same for these wonder phones they will follow the same trends it just takes time to develop the technology to lower production costs. The impact these gadgets will have on society will be immense. It will make information so widely available to the average person for example access to news, current events and trains times will be so much more available you can just pull the phone out your pocket and check. A constant supply of information at your fingertips. With this society will move so much quicker because people can now access common interests which at a time would only be available from a fixed location.

Paggerd Fresher

Three days of alcohol abuse have taken the toll on my body. As a fresher your expected to take part, and taking part as a Nott's Trent fresher means getting hammered. But its not all stupid costumes and games, Its the meeting new friends the new experiences, this is what being a fresher is about! Your first three years can go easy or hard. But at the end of the day its the sacrifices and the lengths that you are prepared to take which the deciding factor.

What do I want to get out of my course?

As part of my course Ive being asked to write on here what I want to get out my course, the straight up answer being to pass. But were not aloud to write that, so here it goes...

What I would like to achieve on my multimedia course? A greater understanding of media in general as well as the techniques and skills to make my filming and editing skills the best they can be. To pursue a career in this over populated area I must have these skills, In a dog eat dog world were the biggest dogs get the food, I don't want to be a small dog eating scraps I want to be the big mother beast eating all the meat!
