Comments to video post

To Dinorah

Wow, you have a lot of tech stuff in one corner of your room. From ipods, to electric piano, to the wii, etc. i dont know if thats how your room really looks like, but it shows that you spend alot of time on your gears. I also liked that you played a breif demo of your piano skills to the viewers before you got distracted to SSBB.

You probably weren't acting out the scene you presented, but to me it shows how video games can be very distracting to people. Even if you were trying to imitate your ipod, its still considered pratice compared to playing the wii.

The part where you wrote about wishing your sister wouldn't spend so much time on the computer, or how if you had a child, you wish they won't spend so much time is similar to the answers my partner and i got from interviewing adults, how if htey had kids or if they do, what the maximum time they'd allow. They all agreed that electronics are taking people lives away.

The only thing that i have problems with is the video and how you didn't show any expressions because the video is focusing on what you are using, not how you are reacting.

What i found interesting is how you muti-task, and usually that requires movement of some sort, but the way you listen to your ipod, to playing the piano for 30 seconds and then suddenly switch to the wii, it all seems too convenient.

Thanks for the piano song, it sounds pretty nice, and your thoughts.

I like how you took the time to make the video, and i guess you got carried away or was distracted by watching whatever it was on your labtop, but i think thats good. Also like how you invited people into your video.

Most of your point in your answers mostly talk about how a person looks, they look like zombies, out of it, basically how you interact with it.

Just like Dinorahs' blog, it talks about how a person really looks towards how the person using the gears actaully feel, its like a contradiction from what it looks to how your feeling.

The only thing i would look over is the grammer mistakes, and to view things more deeply.

The timing of the video you said was about 2 mins, althought you fast forward it so it must've been about 3-4mins. I guess what i consider is how time flies when your distracted.

Nice video and thoughts hope to see more.
