  • #12 – Comments section

    My blog is a space where I just want to provide personal opinion, and I do not really seek it as a place to spark debate or conversation. It may sound cold, but should there be polarizing opinions left in my hypothetical comments section, I am not really interested in defending my content, as I…

  • #11 – Pokemon and transmedia storytelling

    Pokemon as Transmedia Storytelling was an article written 10 years ago, and the world it exists in has shifted since then. I want to use this article as an excuse to get something off of my chest: my take on the Palworld vs. Pokemon debate. The dust has settled quite a bit now and the…

  • #10 – Marketability of my own site

    Completing peer review #3 was a good opportunity to think about marketing happyvibes.space to an audience. In conjunction with reading about SEO’s this week, I felt like there were a few areas that I could improve upon to build credibility. Domain name While at the beginning of the semester, I was content with the name…

  • #9 – Are analytics worrisome?

    What, really, are the effects of having your information held hostage online? The digital era is not the first time that people have readily given away personal information to corporations and anonymous crowds – perhaps this idea stems from my lack of understanding of the pre-2000s, but initially upon reading the week 9 process post…

  • #8 – An AI-generated blog

    Week 8’s readings were predominantly about generative AI tools. I do think AI applications are powerful tools and are already in the public light as such, but often, I find that it’s difficult to find definitive stances about the social implications of AI. In the context of my blog, there’s something that AI-generated content makes…

  • #7 – Digital literacy and social responsibility

    Week 7 readings, pertaining to the types of information that can be obtained online in the modern day (Something is wrong on the internet, and Yes, Digital Literacy. But Which One?), discussed the consequences of children being able to roam an internet world overtaken by adults who are leaving behind content that has little regard…

  • #6 – Design analysis on Semantle

    https://semantle.com/ To set the context, my friends and I, over Discord each night, do a little ritual we like to call ‘dailies’, where we will play Wordle and its many variants together (ie. Connections, mini crosswords) over the screen sharing feature. The game we save for last is Semantle, where players have to guess the…

  • #5 – Digital Gardens

    Inspired by the idea of digital gardens, I tried starting my own on neocities.org for week 5. I’m confident that it’ll be abandoned for the duration of this semester as I want to focus on maintaining this blog as well as my UX design portfolio site, but as soon as I have time again, I’d…

  • #4 – Audience

    What audience have you been imagining so far? Because I haven’t talked about this blog to anyone but a few friends, those are the only people I expect to be reading my blog, aside from members of PUB101. With my friends, I have a sense of what their humour is like, and know that I…

  • #3 – Mapping Out My Site

    Layout of happyvibes.space My website layout intends to feature all of my posts as the primary content, which is why all posts will be accessible from the landing page. For the purpose of this course, I’ve also made all the categories visible in the header, but this may change if I decide to revisit this…
