Project II Proposal




DSDN206
Project II proposal



Continue with the project one, after I got the first project feedback. I decide just made things ‘step by step’ will probably more reasonable than what I thought for the first project idea. I will at first make it and scale it smaller than what I used to thought. It basically a social networking website which consider ‘people’ and ‘object’ at the same time. First, the users collect and share their same interest with other people online. As sharing the common interest, trying to make them interactive with each other is quite important. So I will have a group (seems like forum) for each group member who get interest in something. And they can do sharing idea and talk on that platform. That is what my aim at right now. Because I am new to the website design, and all the below technology part is just after I have browse the website and codeacademy to get the basic idea about the whole structure for a real website page should have. I will talk with tutor, students or teacher more about that after hand in this proposal to get some recommendation from them.



The basic and the core language for building this website will be HTML, CSS for its framework and JavaScript to add little interactive function on the website. There are also lots of HTML and CSSs frameworks like Twitter Bootstrap or Yahoo! Pure. After you download their framework and by looking tutorial online or just test with their CSS in your html files, and its responsive website design feature also makes the website good looking on any screen device. There is lot of users suggest to choose Python for the common gateway interface. As Python is not only a good programming language, compare with PHP as a very mature language can probably be simple and easy to use. It plays a role in a variety of network tasks, both on the server side and on the client side. For web development, it also have web application framework like Django. As I intend to have some social networking feature, maybe have a look some powerful open source social networking engine like ‘elgg.’ ‘Drupal’. Those engine include the social network module to have look and can provide the framework and Plug-in for the developer.

Website Wirframing

Opps, it really taking a long time to find one website wirframing software to suit with you. After what I have searched and suggested by my friend at the same class. I have choose the Wireframe.cc for making the project 1 website wireframing.



Home Page

Log in Page
Status Page(see what is friend or the following people doing)

My personal page(record the interesting I had collected)



Explore page (User can find what happened at the same city and also "Discussion Group" for sharing similar hobbies content with each other ) 
Movie Webpage for example (showing the hotest movie poster and there scores/ reviews/ comment on the left hand side, on the right hand side is the tag/ genre/ and film ranking list)
Logo I consider to be.. use UG = universal glue or Uni Glue


Flowchart for the website

That is what I thought for the flowchart...
WOW, cannot believe I conclude some similar page interest or subpage during brainstorm time...

DSDN206 Proposal Update



 After second week friday class, I finally choose the empty space for the DSDN206 internet paper.
Because at that day I just have roughly thought what i might going to do. So I post the original one of my idea and then update the newest one as an update for my proposal. I did not find out my hand in folder last time. Hopefully could be fixed out for my next hand in.

-Here is the original rough idea-
Today, you will find it is really wasting time always change the Apps during using your mobile or webpage to get the information you want from social media. The inspiration from the idea is like ‘Mail’ on each Apple Products and ‘Outlook’ from Microsoft, it is so helpful that you could just by using one click to access all the account under that. For this project one idea that comes into my mind is to create a combination platform for the user. Trying to make a website that take advantage of the others and at the same time without suffering the disadvantage from them.
 Try to combine the already existing social media platform. Such as twitter, Facebook or YouTube. 

After doing some research, I had change the plan, because of I find there is a well-known App called Flipboard.
Flipboard, as one of the magazine platform made the information from the twitter and Facebook looks like magazine and provide the same article for you just take a look but you could not do anything like comment or something else. You still need to login their accounts to post anything else.

 -Here is the newest version for my proposal-

For this project one, the idea that comes into my mind is trying to make a website that take advantage of the others and at the same time without suffering the disadvantage from them. As we know, using the real name for the username on SNS will leak lots of privacy information and make people worry about their private life. so this website could allows user suing the anonymity as they wish.

The new generation web which called web 2.0 describe the website allow users to interact and collaborate with each other in social media dialogue as creators of user-generated content in a virutal community. I have summarized some basic and similar hobbies or the way people spend on their leisure - Book, Movie, Music, Social activity. In this virtual world, I am think to propose a social website that depend on people sharing their similar hobbies with others and then make a friend with each other by those things(won't be know each other in real life) or you can just have your friend ID to play with each other and record what you have done on your spare time. People might access from the book, movie, and music to get know with each other. And this website is focus on finding the interesting thing for you when each time you log it on your homepage.

Unlike the other website such as Facebook mode need to people , that brand / website is open to  everyone [registered or unregistered users] for browse.The difference between the registered and unregistered users - the website could record your favourite books/movie or music and trying to provide some potential interesting one. For unregistered users, what their can do is just take a look what is the ranking list and the registered user review or comment about a book/film or music album.

Original Thinking [little bit messy thinking]

As last time I did not find there is a hand in folder for my Task II

So I just talked with Walter about my proposal this week on the class.

Today, you will find it is really wasting time always change the Apps during using your mobile or webpage to get the information you want from social media. The inspiration from the idea is like 'Mail' on each Apple products and 'Outlook'. It is so helpful that you could just by using one click to access all the account under that. For this project one idea that comes into my mind is to create a combination platform for the user.

Because of using the real name for the username on SNS will leak privacy information and will make you worry about your private life. So this website could allows user using the anonymity as they wish. From collect the idea and what social status and user taste just like what Facebook did for their 'like' page, or doing the survey asking user which kind of information

You might access from the book, movie, and music to get know with each other. And this website is focus on finding the interesting thing for you when each time you log it on your homepage.

First post for the DSDN206

Okay, after those two weeks on the waitlist I am changing my course to the DSDN206 Internet and identity. Hope everything i did was not too late... 

As my friend and mates told me about the first project and after i check the schoolofdesign website. I think our first project is kind of free way. Like Ian said :'if you have infinite resource around the world, what are trying to do with the Internet? '

find YouTube and biztech accidental logo match with together...
And as i knew last week Friday on the class, Walter showed a documentary called We live in public. I just have a look it on the website to get the idea what the track we are on right now. We live in public is a 2009 documentary by Ondi Timoner which profiles Internet pioneer Josh Harris. It has as its the theme the loss of privacy in the Internet age. Although Josh Harris probably like many other corporation like Google/Face book or twitter did thing right now to make him wealth - eight million dollars for his pesude.  He just spent his all money to build this experiment or we could say his artist experiment. Test many people live in this underworld and record his privacy life and his ex-girl-friend. To expand the idea 'We live in public'.

-Collect, distill and present a specific set of information that defines your digital identity

There are some history for my interenet from the past to right now, pretty much about the SNS website and some game platform or self study or some tutorial website
