Review of TED talks and the articles

The internet use to be our hero that may allow us to get the imformation from the world without any limitation. It's quite a impossible thing in the last centry, the leaderships of every contries had the controls.
However, the time changed; the internet limit us right now. As Eli talked in TED, google and facebook and many of the other company limited the imformation. They are not allowed the people to see what was really happened which was hamful to their government. That was not the hoping from the people.
In my contry——China, people are not allowed to use facebook or etc; the government is kind afraid of the  truth are heard to people. They set the firewall that stop the imformation and block the way of Chinese people to get over it.
Some of the programs became personalized that create the user's own world. They made you fall in this, let you think it's a freedom and unlimination world, meanwhile a fake world that you can't get out of it.

Review of "How Obama Really did it"

It's an article talked about how the computer and internet helped the present Obama to be winner in that vote. He used the network as a propaganda media to be more appealing.
To use a network is better then artifi voting. More people choose to vote instead of give up. Obama campagin also create their own website which shows to the people how many of votes supported them.
They collected the public opinions and post on the pages, then they tried to create a solution and also posted beside in the web so that people can trush them and support their campagin. It's an efficacious and new way to publicized himself. Nobody did it before, so I think it's the way made him successful.
The MySpace' friends, facebook supports and weekly website traffic all shows how hot of the Obama supports were. By mainly use of the networking, his supports had a huge difference between with the rests.
In the graphic I had seen, Hillary Clinton had a high rate in weekly website traffic also, I'm not sure did he use the networking as his publicize way.
The post of comments did a great job that helped Obama to be successful in voting. The citiziens write their troubles on the post that let Obama know what to do. It was the time of economic crash, he promised to provide the jobs and chances on the posts, that made people trust him.
The only issue in that website, by my personal opinion is that all true in there; the fake presentations and the artifical votes.

Review of the PBS presentation——China From the Inside. Power

In this program, it talked about pretty much issues. First of all, China is a coutry which has a huge number of population. Like the qutation present in the first page, a Economics and Politics had talked the poor people in China were nothing; no power, no rights, even no fair. The second issue that I want to talk about was the women in China. I'm as a Chinese has Impressed about the talks. And the last issue was the problems of the environment in China.
The poors and workers are nothing, you can ignore them in the populations. It's the game work in China; the richs and the officers rob them, they did a hard labor works but were paid only a little that even can't keep a family. However the richs and the officers can have a luxurious life. Meanwhile, the workers can't resist them because the richs and the officers are collusions. The best example is builders worked for their boss for like two years, they can't get their salary when the work finished. Can you image that a group of people lived one or two years without paid? Most of them were migrant workers and no support from the local government.

There is no true love in China, you marriage is going to buy a woman by a horse. The only thing in Chinese women is the money; it's not their fault but the Coutry. The high competition of the jobs and the dear price of the commodity made this. It's no fair between male and female in this republic contry. The women can get a job eaiser than a man but still had a high cometition because of the population is huge. The rest of the female who can't find a good job, they can only find a rich husband who can raise her. At least he has to own a horse.
The environment in China is the worst, I remembered a sportsman said this a few days ago. The trash were everywhere, people throw them immediately as they felt them were useless to them. They were not much trash bins in most of the courtyside, even in the city, the elder don't like to use them.
The factories break the rules and produce the polution just for their benefits. They created the haze in BeiJing.
