In Tokoyo, Japan the 10 best-selling novels, were cellphone novels with a love story invovled. Cellphone novelists are rackign up the kind of sales that some many people only dream of. A 21 year old year, named Rin used her cellphoen to create a novel and is now turned into a 142 page hard cover book and No.5 best-selling novel of 2007. Cellphone novels started in 2000 but it really began to boom in 2004-2005. Last year the number of novels that appeared on a perticular site got up to 1 million this year. The largest provider, Docomo, began offering this service in mid-2004. But becuase of thsi constant use of the cellphone, the bills were becoming as high $1,000,these high expenses have slowed down the amount of novels though. The cellphones were tools that desired peopel to write and to do something that they might not of thought they would do.

Mr. Yang has become the co-founder of yahoo. And he wants to change the program to have it connect to some outside connections beyond the inside applications that it has. It will supposedly help money income. Right now yahoo remains the most popular property on the web, but that can change. Mr. Yang wants to transform yahoo into a powerful communication hub. He wants to take some similar ideas of facebook and others to include in the changes made to Yahoo. Some other challenges after changing all the necessary things, yahoo also has to deal with having better advertisement then Google. Which will be very hard since Google, in only a year has taken the 22 million visitors of yahoo to 5 million. Yahoo is loosing so many also due to the new generation who uses more search engines and social networks A yahoo chairman said that yahoo has to offer instant messaging, e-mail, news maps and also other content and services that may interest the new generation. In the fall of 2006 yahoo, an effort towards making it available to everyone began. One of the changes of yahoo was link outs. When yahoo used these on a real estate page they received 96 million visitors in November, more than any page on the internet. They are also trying to add more interesting things on the main page of yahoo that will draw the user in. The changes started to work the visitors for the first page increased by 6 million people in the last year. All these changes and modifications to yahoo have either been successful or not hat far away from being completed.
I think that this plan will start to help yahoo alot but i think with the new networks coming out like the one created by Mark Zuckerberg which was facebook, it will becoem a hard challenge. I think the help of having others contribute to the facebook webpage will help it be up to date with new and exciting things.

Place of Creativity

When i try to be creative i have to be very concentrated on what i am doing. It is easier to be creative when the topic is soemthing new to me, and makes me think abotu what it is i am actually do. When i take notes they arent very helpful at that tiem and place but later on i usually go back to them and use them for guidlines.

From Fustration to Learning

Throughout 2007 i have had alot of troubles with html coding while trying to make even a simple table. Though i have had alot of help with the notes that i take which i can go back to at any time. They help when i have no idea what im doing and no one is there to help me or guide me in the right direction. Most of the time if i get stuck in a horrible situation i start to scream in my head which gets alot of my fustration out and then i go back to my notes and try to solve it.
