My pro­duc­tion lab will be focused on the improve­ment of www.Blomap.com, my social network. 

This implies not only usabil­ity improve­ments, which I am work­ing on with a web-developer, but also the expan­sion of the com­mu­nity and the con­ver­sion of the com­mu­nity in business. 

Adver­tis­ing

It is clear that I need to spread the word, there­fore I started adver­tis­ing the web­site through a few days campaign

The feed­back I had for the 1st assign­ment of the Media Enter­prise Mod­ule at BCU was 58% which is not so bad, because very closed to 60% which means “Evi­dence of under­stand­ing key mod­ule con­cepts and top­ics; a devel­op­ing aware­ness of alter­na­tive posi­tions; a devel­op­ing skill of evi­den­tial rea­son­ing; com­pe­tent plan­ning & organ­i­sa­tion with minor lapses.” Con­tinue reading
