Comment on Mobile phone Ads targeting youth in India by Raahil Dhruva

Raahil Dhruva — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 15:54:00 +0000

I am a university student studying PR and it just goes to show the importance of target market and how PR is becoming more and more common in today’s youth. Firms such as Motorola are among the leaders in their industry and they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on marketing. PR is one of the fastest going trends and it ties in perfectly with new technology. Phones are now becoming smarter and PR has never been easier. The youth of today is the future for companies like Motorola. Blogging, PR and social media is the new trend and youths have really taken a liking to it. The value promoted here is about being cool and being liked in the school environment. The culture we live in, no one is liked for being good. Doing bad things and being naughty is the new “cool”. So what PR has allowed is that one can show an image on the net and be a completely different person behind the screen. For example through Facebook and blogging you cab choose how to be represented. So you can put up pictures of partying and blogs about what “cool” things you have done. But you can go home and study for 4 hours and get 95+ in your exam and no one knows about that from your “followers”

Comment on Guided by Inner Vision… by Rosy

I like what you said about being guided by inner wisdom. I think it described it perfectly! So many times in my life I’ve been guided by it and have found tremendous results and other times, when I didn’t follow that inner wisdom, the opposite was true. Thanks for sharing.

Comment on Mahatma Gandhi Statue in the heart of Washington DC by Russell

Russell — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 18:25:22 +0000

Thanks for including this remarkable statue to a most remarkable human being. Please allow me to include the following about the plaque on the front of the statue: “In the spring of 1945, Denton J. Brooks, an African American reporter for the Chicago Defender, arranged a brief interview with Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Using the respectful but familiar “Gandhiji,” Brooks asked, “Is there any special message you would care to send to the Negro people of America?” Gandhi replied, “My life is its own message” ( Chicago Defender, June 10, 1945; reprinted in Raghavan Iyer, ed., The Essential Writings of Mahatma Gandhi, 2005, pp. 40–41). These words, shortened to “my life is my message,” adorn the front of the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial in Washington, D.C. Carved beneath “Mahatma Gandhi” and the dates, “1869–1948,” those five words speak to the promise and the challenge of the Gandhi Memorial—to communicate in stone and space the multiple meanings of a long and diverse life. – http://jah.oxfordjournals.org/content/93/3/830.extract

Hi! i am a mother of two, both girls, 7 and 9 years old. They love this game in fact, they would want me to get them the premium membership!! they really enjoy the game and i have to say that i am pretty impressed with the community too. i see they play games with the moderators who at the same time oversee the behaviour of the members. it’s safe. kids cannot swear, give out phone number, address or other personal info. i recommend this virtual world! http://www.ekidnaworld.com
