Prof Jorge Entrep is Just a Year Old Netizen
Promoting Entrepreneurial Revolution
As I reviewed my ppt presentation at Slideshare I saw the date April 2011. I realized that it has been only a year since I learned how to use the computer. I used to ask my daughter make my ppt lectures or company assistant to open my emails. My emails were largely unanswered. Talk about social media - naaah. FB? FlickR . What are they.
But reviewing the year that I passed, these were the things that I was able to do: opened accounts at Slideshare, Flickr, LinkIn, Twittter, FB and is connected to most of them. I was able to open 3 personal blog accounts at blogspot, 2 at Wordpress, and 4 corporte blogs. Some of the blogs at the 27,000 page views all ready (this blog) with over 800 blogposts.
I managed to have articles at Google search under 3 names numbering more than l0 pages each, from nothing. Since I am Googleable, therefore I exist. (to paraphrase Descartes)
Did I manage to create value for myself? In terms of PHP it is nada Zero. But I gained a lot of IT ( I learned a great deal on widgets, linking, HTML posting,posting pictures and videos) knowledge and create a new body of knowledge and contributed to the growth of knowledge perhaps (the academe does not recognize blogs as research). In so far as the teaching is concerned, I think this added to the novelty of my classes, increased learning of the student.
The main point is I followed the must for every human on earth: it is about getting better. It is about improving oneself. It is about being useful to all other humans.
Yes, old dogs can learn new tricks.
