Final exam:  Thurs. 12/18/14 at 9:45AM-12:00.  Please bring in your textbook, workbook, and handouts. You may need them during the test.  You may also bring in your dictionaries.  Electric version, computers, is OK unless you are addicted or rapidly tumbling toward trouble.     Trapped in SNAD (Social Network Addiction Discorder) or HEGAD (High-End Gadget Addiction Discorder)?   Take these IAD (Internet Addiction Disorder) tests to see how sick you are:   Have you ever wondered why everywhere you go visit, the Google sites, Gmail,  facebook,  even overseas sites, and other Social networks,  HEG ads are everwhere.  Think about it.  What are they (G......)  trying to do to us?   Effrontery!

No chewing gum, no drinks (except bottled water), no food, no iPhone, no iPadno iPod,  no SmartPhone,  no iWatch,  no text-messaging, no anime/manga in the classroom.   Rationale: Chewing gum in the classroom is considered rude and unkempt (Japanese culture & values).

re: attendance.  It is very important that you come to class regularly on time and participate in all class activities.  If you miss a quiz, you will receive a zero (0) point for the quiz.  Remember, if you miss a class, you will lose the portion of class participation which will affect your course grade a lot....  ;((     Individuals who need extra help, feel free to see me in my office (CL410P, TWR 1030-1145am).

Take a close look at the sites: Craigslist, Jim Breen, and ymshimazu's sites. What do they share in common?  You'd think you'd stepped into a time machine that has shot you back to the Web's pre-commercial days?  Mosaic, NCSA, Marc Andreessen?  There are no fancy graphics. No flashy animation. No banner ads. There's hardly even color. It has all the appeal of an elementary school mimeograph. And that's by design. Stay true to its original "populist values” that draw people together. Online communities change over time.  Simple and fast is good,  Craig Newmark agrees, because it makes the site easy to use. This practice will help people make life easy. And provide a culture of trust, one that's very useful and very effective.  "Ostentation and ornamentation are disdained as vulgar, and simplicity and understatement considered as signs of sophistication (Zen)."   Think why people use Twitter?  Prajna. 円融三諦 Are you already addicted or rapidly tumbling toward trouble?
