Assigment #3 - Time Diary

To complete this assignment "Time Diary" I decided to use the social media "TikTok" and record the use. I give to the application on my mobile phone since Friday the 17th at 7:00 p.m. until today Wednesday 22 at 11 a.m. It should be noted that I chose TikTok because it is one of the platforms indicated in the assignment. Since personally, until before taking this course, I only used Facebook and WhatsApp. Therefore, the use of this platform is lower compared to the other two applications mentioned. previously.

I started using this platform at 7:00 p.m. meter. because it was part of this week's homework until 7:30 p.m. approximately. However, little by little I have been liking this application since I can find interesting videos and tutorials. Also, I use this app to find videos and I can upload them to my other apps like WhatsApp where I can put it on my status.

Use the TikTok platform from 11 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. to watch music videos. Then I used it again at 2:00 PM. to see makeup tutorials. For the third time, I used it at 7 pm until 7:30 pm. Finally, the last time I used TikTok was after 11 p.m. at 11:30 pm. to watch music videos.

 

Sunday, 19, 2023:

I opened TikTok for the first time on Sunday at 11:00 AM. to watch music videos for about 15 minutes. Then, I used it again at 2:00 PM. The last time I opened TikTok was at 7:00 p.m. for about 15 minutes.

 

Monday, 20, 2023:

On Monday, since it is a weekday, I started using TikTok at 9:00 am for about 10 minutes. Then use it at 8:00 p.m. until 8:30 pm. to watch music videos, this being the last time on Monday.

 

Tuesday, 21, 2023:

I opened TikTok at 7:00 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. to watch music videos and upload them to my WhatsApp status so they are visible to my contacts. Then I used it again at 10:00 PM. for about 15 minutes to share another video on my WhatsApp.

 

Wednesday, 22, 2023:

This being the last day I record in my diary. I started using TikTok at 9:00 am. for about 30 minutes to watch makeup tutorials and review how to make videos within this platform. Then I used it at 2:00 PM. for about 15 minutes on tutorials on how to create videos on TikTok.

 

During my use of TikTok these days I have noticed that the time patterns I use are 11 am, 2 pm, 7 pm and 11 pm. These times are the most repeated because it is the time when I have a little free time, or go to sleep. Among the less frequent times are 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., as I have used them during these times to try to maintain my daily TikTok usage. During my use of this application, the most frequent activity is to search for music videos to share on my WhatsApp or makeup tutorials. Since I am new used this platform, I do not used chat feature because I do not have any friends. Without a doubt I have started using this application for the course, but I have realized that little by little I am liking this application for the music videos that are shared in it.

Metrics and Analytics: LJ2

    After reading the article "We are data" by John Cheney-Lippold, I have understood that technology has become an important part of our interaction in personal and professional life. As the author mentions, our activity on the web provides us with an online identity that does not necessarily match our identity in real life (p.4). This interaction allows the algorithms created by different companies such as Google to create a database to offer us through its interpretation what we need, such as news that may interest us, advertising, etc. Since as the author mentions, this database is created by all the information that we enter on the web and/or on the pages we visit (p. 6). Hence the author's statement, with which I agree, that we are “data.” Since this database is created thanks to all the information that we provide voluntarily and anonymously.      In fact, and as the author mentions, this database with which the algorithms have built our online ...

"My Interaction with Social Media: LJ1"

   In mi life social media allow me to interact with my family who are in other parts of the world as well as friends, to share music, fashion, etc. On social media I can find news or inform myself about events that are happening. Certainly, social media have gained prominence due to the Covid-19 pandemic. When I started on Internet, I started with "Hotmail" because it included a messaging service. Also, I used different chat rooms which allowed me to talk and play with people on the world. Due to the boom of Facebook, I created my profile as it offered an inclusive and more interactive platform. When I first started interacting on the Internet, it was certainly less secure than it is now, so you could easily end up with your online service site accounts hacked. However, it was even more fun to browse the web to find the wonderful easy ways to unlock our accounts through programs or free codes that were put there by programmers to help those in need. No doubt, when I fir...

Social Media, Metrics, and Analytics: LJ3

During the last two weeks in this class, I read about Microblogging and how social media can be used for research. Therefore, part of the readings are based on metrics and analysis with the use of Social Media. These readings make me understand the article "We are data" by John Cheney-Lippold , where he tells us that technology has become an important part of our personal and professional lives. Since we constantly share information with the Internet and it is being collected to be shared with third parties. A microblogging according to Nations, D. (2019) , mentions that it is a mixture of blogs and instant messaging, achieving a faster form of communication that allows sharing short messages online with other users. Among the social medias that are considered Microblogging are Twitter, Tumbler, and Instagram. This type of content has become extremely popular because it allows sharing not only text but also images, videos, audio, and hyperlinks. According to the readi...
