Death of LimeWire!

Lime wire after being used my millions of people for years was finally shut down this year. The users of Limewire would most of the time download and share copyright material. The owners of the web service are currently being sued for copyright infringement.

Twix - Get The Girl

Propaganda in advertising

This ad uses oversimplification because its implying to the audience that a Twix bar will solve a complicated situation like getting  a girl. It also uses Slogans. "Need a moment? Chew it over with Twix". Both of these techniques are used to appeal to peoples humor. This makes them like the product and eventually remember it at a store and buy it when they see it.   

Internet

So I just looked at the list and wow was I surprised. How many are there? lets see.... A LOT! There must be roughly 200 websites listed. I'm not very big on the internet and use it for essentials like email so I don't know many of these sites. I did recognize Facebook, Myspace, Twitter and Yelp. Out of those I only use Facebook and Yelp. I found it funny that this website (Blogger) is not on the list. I did see Bloggster on there but Im under the impression that they are to different websites ( I might be wrong). I hadn't heard of Lafango until I saw on someone else's Internet blog post and they mentioned it. Is a website were you share music.  When I found it on the list I looked it up and liked it. I'm going to give it a try since I still use Limewire to get my music. Since I don't use social websites much its hard to think of an incident. Although, for my birthday this year, Facebook really helped me get the word out to all my friend about the party and it made it easier than sending everyone a txt message.
