Thing 10 – Wikimedia

All through high school and college, Wikipedia was my most-used resource to gather general information on any topic I planned on researching. I did not want to set-up a Wikipedia account, but upon further reading I learned that Wikipedia offered a number of other open knowledge projects: I was amazed by all of the information … Continue reading Thing 10 – Wikimedia →

Thing 10 – Wikimedia

Thing 9 – Collaborate Ultra

Through my studies at the University of Edinburgh I have been given the chance to work with, and within, Collaborate. As an online student, being able to connect with my classmates and professors is an invaluable resource. Working through a master’s program with little to no contact with the university is a lonely, and often … Continue reading Thing 9 – Collaborate Ultra →

Thing 9 – Collaborate Ultra

Thing 8 – Facebook

Like many people my age, I’ve had a Facebook profile for many years. Over that time I became more aware of the array of features that Facebook offers its users. One of these features is Facebook Groups. Since graduation, I have used Facebook Groups for a number of reasons, both professional and personal. One of … Continue reading Thing 8 – Facebook →

Thing 8 – Facebook

Thing 7 – Twitter

As I do not have a Twitter account, I opted to see what I could find without opening an account. I was surprised to see that I was able to access a great deal of this social media platform without a username. I’m not sure if this is something they have changed recently, but the … Continue reading Thing 7 – Twitter →

Thing 6 – Accessibility

This was an interesting topic for me to dive into because accessibility is something I didn’t realize I think about constantly. While there is nothing keeping me from accessing most websites and interfaces, some are definitely much more user friendly than others. As an iPhone user, I have the hardest time using my husband’s Android … Continue reading Thing 6 – Accessibility →

Thing 6 – Accessibility

Thing 5 – Diversity

Does the introduction of more diverse emojis really matter? My answer: kind of. While I think that it’s important that companies are moving in the general direction of equality, I think that there is more that needs to be done. Is that the responsibility of a social media mogul? Maybe. The more importance we place … Continue reading Thing 5 – Diversity →

Thing 5 – Diversity

Thing 4 – Digital Security

I have to say that when I dove into my iPhone privacy settings I was worried that something would surprise me. In actuality, I am pretty responsible when it comes to the number of applications I download and the data that I allow each application to use. With that said, I am also very aware … Continue reading Thing 4 – Digital Security →

Thing 4 – Digital Security

Thing 3 – Digital Footprint

I was happy to find out that what comes up when you Google my name, Michelle Nelson von Euw, is exactly what I would want to come up. The three links that refer to me are my LinkedIn page, my Facebook page (which is private enough that only the photos I highlight are available), and … Continue reading Thing 3 – Digital Footprint →

Thing 3 – Digital Footprint

23 Things – Things 1&2 – Blogging

In accordance with my previous post on the Year of Intention, I finally set time aside to work on completing the University of Edinburgh’s 23 Things for Digital Knowledge. I began my master’s program at the university in the Fall and I wanted to get the most out of the university’s provided resources. Unfortunately, because … Continue reading 23 Things – Things 1&2 – Blogging →
