I put the ipad3 and ipad2 together and I saw that the new one is actually thinner and lighter, actually in more detail (50g and thicker 0.6mm). The second item that got my attention was the screen which helps people that want to read a book or watch movies, and definitely better quality picture in gaming.The new ipad3 is faster, and also they say that there are some differences in some standard applications.

Impartiality in the news
What is the criteria applied by journalists and editors in news organizations to determine whether or not to publish particular items of news? In commercial news the consensus of “Value” is used to determine whether an item is likely to interest a potential audience. However, there are some other sources of value, including the judgment of intrinsic significance or the pull or pressure of influential interests other than those of the audience. Therefore, the Informative character of the television and press has been affected by contemporary social and economical changes.
Newspapers and broadcasting corporations have their own particular way to inform people. Based on their own policies and agendas – and sometimes regulated by economical and political interests- those are the sources of media which produce news that audiences consume.

World Table Tennis Championships
Originating in 1926 in London World Table Tennis Championships take place on a yearly basis in different locations around the globe.

That means in every odd year we have individual WTTC while in every even year we have the international team events.
I HATE FACEBOOK!
I think at the beginning when Facebook appeared on the internet space, everyone liked it because you could find anyone that you “liked”, but I think it had some problems.
I had it for couple of months and I saw people were putting their pictures & writing their comments. After some months this website became bigger and bigger, then all of a sudden other company ads appeared on the website.
Traditional Media or Internet?
Recent political experiences have shown different ways of doing politics. The politicians and the campaigns that they have to run are being adapted according to the social context, cultural aspects of their audience and electoral preferences. Therefore, with the fragmentation and individualization of the audience, politicians are adapting their discourses to target voters in different ways. Nowadays, they recognize the importance of the heterogeneity and diversity of publics and their preferences. For example, some campaigns are still using traditional media to persuade voters that are not familiarized with the internet, or simply because this target public do not have access to the web or they do not like this way of communication. In this case, the traditional media holds the radio spots, TV commercials and press media called Traditional Campaign. Continue reading
