Hubba hubba

Wendy Cheng AKA Xiaxue strikes back. There's a whole article on her and her blogging featured in the Sunday Times dated 150804. Do check it out. It's worth a read (or a good laugh) anyhow.

Meeting on 130804

Statement of intent:
The purpose of the study is to explore the role of blogs in the way Singaporeans communicate, using in-depth interviews.

Reasons for doing this project:
Currency amongst Singaporeans and in the Media
Changing the ways we relate to people and others (intra and interpersonally)

Research Questions:

• Why are blogs so popular?
• What are the alternatives to blogging?
• What motivates Singaporeans to blog?
• What are the implications of blogging in Singapore?
• What do Singaporeans blog about?
• Can a pattern be discerned that links either profession or age with blog content?
• What part does blogging play in the Singaporean communication landscape?
• What facilitates blogging?
• What are the relationships between a blogger and his/her audience?
• How do Singaporeans bloggers communicate with each other over blogs?
• How do blogs play a part in intrapersonal communication?
• What are the marketing/political possibilities in blogs?
• How do our identities “in real life” differ or correspond to our identities on the Internet?
• Why do people read blogs?

And it has begun...

Homework.
Oh lordy.
