Hi, my name is Peter Chen. I'm a student of SAS, though technically I came in as Rutgers College, which unfortunately does not exist anymore. This will be my 5th year at Rutgers. I am a History Major, and am taking this course to fulfill a requirement for the Science, Technology, and Society minor.
Anyways, moving on to the assignment: my network usage for the past 3 days. Unlike the rest of society, I actually don't care for any of the social networking stuff. I don't have a myspace or a twitter. I do have a facebook, but i get on it about once a week for like 10 minutes at most. So my network usage is very limited without this major waste of time. I'm a commuter and because of my class scheduling, I'm on campus for like 12 hours a day, so my access to the internet is limited. I don't have one of those new phones, so no internet access through that either. When I do get home, my network access is mostly limited to getting on AIM, and accessing my e-mail, and sakai site to see what homework i need to do for the next day. Accessing my e-mail and sakai takes about an hour or so. And I don't really talk to anyone on AIM and no one usually bothers me either, so not much internet usage there either. My internet usage is actually pretty much very limited, probably much, much less compared to the average of society.Actually, with the most of my free time, I do play games online, specifically games on my Playstation 3. If anything, that would constitute the majority of my internet usage. The breakdown of my average net usage is like 10% AIM conversation, 30% checking email and Sakai, and 60% gaming.
Anyways, my thoughts on blogging is, well, i personally I don't really like it. I did use a xanga back in High School, but I really found no point to it. I really don't care about blogging or blogs or any of the sort. I really don't care what other people think, or what people think about me, or even what I care to share with others. This probably stemming from my anti-social and introvert personality, but whatever. Anyways, that's all there is to it.
