Original content

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

One of the major problems of the internet today is the lack of original content. Was checking out one website which claims to have hundreds of freelancers on its payrolls. While they seem to have very good systems in place, their websites are not at all original . Many of their freelancers seem to have their articles rejected because they were copied from some other website.  If you don’t make an allowance for differences and want keyword based articles, you get software code not something you like to read.

Price and quality

Though some believe that you get what you pay for , this not always true for article writing. You may pay a premium for an article published on the website and the writer may be highly qualified, but he or she may just copy the article from the first source she or he finds.So it is important to understand the personal value system before assigning work

Newspaper SMS spam

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

When you sign up for a newspaper, you only want the paper copy to be delivered at home, but your mobile phone gets spammed.  I regularly get spam  SMSes  from a newspaper’s  Infoline  regarding a variety of subjects, and there is no option available to opt out of these spam  SMSes.

Editors and news

Most of the general public believes that the mainstream media like newspapers and TV are unbiased, but actually the editors of these publications are selected on the basis of their ability to promote the agenda of the media owners.

Making a profit is also an important motivation.

Stereotypes

One of the problems of lack of exposure and experience is that you tend to stereotype, believe  in the fake images projected by the media.   Most offline media companies have a few large advertisers and their editors consciously publish stories which reiterate this image.
