Online Star Newspaper: 27 April 2007
Printed Version
From the Paper
"When scrutinising advertisements in the two editions of the newspaper it is visible that the products and target markets were different based on the media being used. Despite that fact, advertisements are important to both versions of the newspaper. In terms of user friendliness, both newspaper versions have their problems and advantages, with the paper edition being part of a societal and historical habit, despite being more difficult to navigate compared to the electronic version. The electronic version tends to overcrowd the homepage, leading to confusion at times. Finally, interactivity is the element that best separates the two versions of newspaper that have been compared. The paper version is a classic that has been and will be around for a very long time; however, it cannot compete with the vast interactivity offered by the electronic version. Ultimately, online journalism adds a new and useful dimension to a profession that always has use for new forms of communication and information."

P.E.S.T. Analysis of Taiwan
Porter's Market Analysis of the Online Retail Market
From the Paper
"There is no doubt that the environment within which the organization operates has a great influence on the market share of the product lines of the company. Similarly, there is no doubt that the environment within which the organization operates has a great influence on the sales that the company can hope to make using online retail concepts. For example, a market that has a large number of Internet users will have larger volume of online purchasers. At the same time however, the Internet can also offer individuals located at destinations that are very geographically apart an option to purchase products that might have otherwise not been available to them. Therefore, a customer in Taiwan could purchase a product from a store based in the U.S., U.K. or Australia without ever having to leave their homes."

Online Magazines vs. Hard Copy Magazines, 2007.
A comparison between the printed video game magazine, "Hyper", and the video game website, "Imagine Games Network".

Abstract
This paper analyzes the differences found between online journals or magazines and hard copy examples. The paper explores the similarities and differences between two magazine publications - "Hyper" (an Australian video gaming print magazine) and the "Imagine Games Network" (IGN.COM, an American video gaming online magazine). The paper concludes that both styles of magazine have their strengths and weaknesses - both are popular and both are profitable.
From the Paper
"As of the September issue 2003, Hyper has been in monthly print for exactly a decade in Australia. This makes it the longest running video gaming magazine in the country - obviously due to its success. Hyper's publisher Next Media publishing sells approximately two million magazines a month and is ranked in the top ten of Australia's media publishers (Fish: 2003, Hyper Issue 112 pg6). Looking through the various articles, pictures and even advertisements in the magazine one can gather that it is targeted at a predominantly male readership. Subtle sexual innuendos aimed at teenage boys are scattered throughout each issue. The wording of each article is written in a casual fashion and never talks down to the reader. The magazine never takes itself too seriously either, perhaps in a knowing attempt to allow their readership to escape their hectic lives for a while (much like videogames do). An example of this can be found in Issue 97, which shows a preview for a game by the name of 'Conker's Bad Fur Day'. A picture showcasing the visuals of the game depicts a squirrel character standing over a female dinosaur character with a giant bone in his hand. The caption states: 'oooh, looks like she's about to get boned dude!' (Shea: 2003, Hyper Issue 97 pg68). Although it is clear the screenshot itself is not intended sexually, the journalists of the magazine know their audience and are fully willing to use some sexual humour to spark up some interest."

Abstract
The purpose of this report is to show how computer journalism will be more of an asset to journalism and society. It looks at how computer journalism is better than other news sources, will create more jobs, will affect the community, and will affect entertainment such as sports and movies. The discussion is constructed as follows: journalism in the present & the future, computer journalism in the present, newspapers that are already using computer journalism, how databases help stories become more efficient, why CD-ROM is a needed tool, the future, how computer journalism increases opportunity and creates new jobs and reaches the community, effects on entertainment, and advertising.
From the Paper
"Newspapers have always been efficient in delivering the news but have faced set-backs that leave the public unsatisfied. Surveys show that ?only 38 percent of the public rely on the newspaper.., while 72 percent point to television for news? (Dennis 677). Editors realize the need for drastic change and have already adopted new ways to deliver the news more efficiently. For example, databases are now ??recognized as a tool, if not a staple? (Webb 1) for good journalism. CD-ROMS (On-line databases) are also being used frequently by Newspapers; because of the dramatic drop-off in the price for ROMS, from $10,000 to $4,000 in the last decade, the media has been quick to take advantage. These two new resources hope to push back the newspaper on top of the news industry."

John C. Merrill's "Professionalization of Journalism", 2005.
This paper reviews John C. Merrill's "Professionalization of Journalism", which argues the appropriateness of professionalizing the career of journalism.
835 words (approx. 3.3 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 29.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, although journalism has some characteristics of a profession, it cannot be considered a profession because (1) journalists do not have a direct relationship with their clientele, (2) there are no entrance requirements, (3) journalists do not follow a prescribed code of ethics nor a standard way in which they behave and (4) journalists do not possess one specialized body of knowledge but rather command many disciplines. The author points out that if journalist came from only one shared common knowledge, this would restrict the perspectives, conduct and values of their profession. The paper relates that Merrill believes that, while the professionalization of journalism does deter amateurish practices, it nevertheless creates university journalism programs that squash creativity and inquisitiveness.
From the Paper
"The original definition of profession is one who professes. Since then, it has come to mean an occupation to which one belongs and about which one is knowledgeable. Moreover, one also claims complete domain over the discipline. In other words, a member of a profession declares that because he is educated in that area, he has more authority in such matters than do nonmembers. As such, this specialist has absolute control over the services he provides to others. Professions consist of homogenous groups of individuals. A professional is described as being trustworthy, objective, and inquisitive regarding his profession. Additionally, a professional seeks solidarity with colleagues and protection from the judgment of outsiders. Entrance to a profession is subject to satisfactory completion of prescribed requirements."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"As the field continues to expand attention turns to evaluating its effectiveness. Online opportunities abound because of the advantages however, there have been recent concerns about the quality of education that they provide. The teacher is not face to face with the students. If they have questions they must wait until they get an email or chat response. There are more opportunities for academic dishonesty without in person discussion and testing. While online education can provide a valuable benefit to the students of the world it is important to ascertain the strengths and weaknesses of such a path so that future courses can become even better."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Meanwhile, the coming of the new millennium has brought new and more challenging technologies. Different forms of communications such as Internet, mobile phones and SMS, Internet chat or MIRCs, and e-groups penetrated majority of the countries around the world. Communication through computer - generated networks became very visible. This enables any individual to talk with someone you cannot see in a face-to-face basis, to buy something and have it delivered without having to go out of your home, to research for any information with just one click on the Internet, or to meet new friends. Even on - line studies or distance education through computer - generated communication sprouted like mushrooms. More and more schools started to offer distance form of learning to accommodate students who, due to lack of time, opted to enroll in a much "scheduled-free" learning method. Furthermore, the idea of learning through online gave birth to online academic communities, as pioneered by Stanford University's Club Nexus. This academic community brings the students of the same preference closer to one another and at the same time broadens the students "world"."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses how the extensive collection, sharing and exchange of information between online companies to create profiles of individuals has become a major concern for privacy advocates. The paper defines online profiling and looks at the three primary categories of privacy concerns and the three segments of consumers who hold different views on privacy. The paper examines the benefits and concerns and contends that consumers deserve better protection of their online privacy. The paper maintains that the solution for the above problems is to make opting-in mandatory for all online profiling. The paper shows how there is no need for businesses to violate privacy rights as they are currently doing by insisting on invasive online profiling practices.
Outline:
Introduction
Online Profiling Defined
Privacy Concerns
Public Perception
Benefits and Concerns
Self-Regulation
Compliance with Self Regulation
Conclusion and Recommendations
From the Paper
"Online profiling may involve the collection of anonymous transactional data and it may also involve the merger of this click stream data with personally identifiable information such as name, address, telephone number, credit card number, social security number, email address, etc. (Sax, 1999) A click stream is the sequence of clicks or pages requested as a visitor explores a Web site. The click stream data collected may include information such as Web sites and Web pages visited, the time and duration of the visit, search terms typed in search engines' forms, and other queries, purchases, "click through" responses to advertisements, and the previous page visited (Mulligan, 1999)."

Abstract
This paper examines how the Internet is the new and the quickest-growing media and looks at the changing face of the online news industry. It discusses how Internet sites do not undergo tough editorial and legal scrutiny, which print journalism are conventionally subjected to, and analyzes if this is potentially damaging to standards of conventional journalism.
From the Paper
"In presenting news in the layout of a newspaper, supplementing it with multimedia features might be the greatest strengths of web-based journalism. Apart from the printed story in the newspaper, the text may be come together with a video or a collection of online photographs presented through a slideshow. The Internet gives more opportunities and discovery of novel ways of presenting news. It is a totally distinct environment involving varied approaches. Anything, which goes on fine in traditional media, might not show the same results in the new media. The Internet provides news and at the same time information also. The medium is also that of storage through archiving."

Abstract
This paper discusses how MMORPGs provide an environment in which satisfying relationships can be built. However, the compatibility that players feel with others in the game may be artificially enhanced by game-based pre-selection. The paper further discusses how it is possible, also, that individuals are concealing information that may lead to other players drawing other conclusions about them, if that information was known. Research on MMORPG relationships is scarce, however, existing research shows that players experience greater emotional involvement in these games, rather than outside of them.
From the Paper
"Jason DesFlam is a husky young man with bright red hair, secured by a blue skullcap. He wears a silver chain-mail tunic, overlaid with a yellow doublet and leggings of red dragon scales. In Ultima Online, Jason is a powerful paladin warrior, capable of both armed combat and simple spell-casting. His blue ostard--a creature that is a combination of an ostrich and a lizard--is not the most powerful of creatures, but is a swift mount that possesses some combat skills of its own. Yet when Jason logs out in the inn, another identity emerges, a forty-five-year-old woman. No one in the game knows who "Jason" really is. They believe she fits the standard demographic of the game, a young man between the age of seventeen and twenty-four."
