I have been playing online for many years now through Microsoft’s service for the Xbox called Xbox-live - now days I own an Xbox 360 and various games in different genres. I suppose that all games played online in a way lets you have an so called avatar since you always have you Xbox alias, but in this discussion I will be talking about a Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG)

I might be a bit late with this one, which has a lot to do with the fact that Google really hasn’t been nice to me for the past weeks and so I haven’t been able to upload anything to the blog. Now everything seems to be fine, since you are reading this. I found the seminars with Michael Godhe to be really interesting. I especially liked the idea of science fiction as a prophecy – that in science

I don't know if anyone has seen the commercial for Sterling airlines on television lately - but the song in that video is brilliant and the group behind it is equally brilliant - with a terrible name. The commercial is here by the way. The group is called Bang gang, their from iceland and make really good pop music. I have been listening to them for the past couple of days. Their Myspace is here,

First of all I would like to start by saying that I will discuss online-communitys in this post and that I have been trying to get this post posted for a while now but I was not able to log in. My own experience in online-communitys is not that good, which has to do with the fact that I do not really like communitys where you have to register to see the material – which leads to the question

So, why am I asking myself if I am a monkey with a typewriter? Merely because the book I have just read says so. I have just read a book called The cult of the amateur – why today’s internet is killing our culture by Andrew Keen. To summarize the book, Keen argues that our moral values is getting devoured and that the usage of blogs, social online networks and the collective intelligence in

So I have read the Terms of Use of Facebook. It was fun, nerve-racking, boring and interesting. Unlike my classmate and friend Per I will not recite as much, merely because you – the reader – can look it up yourself right here. Call me lazy, but I really do think that is more important to have a discussion about the terms then to just tell you what they say. Also I think it is better to relate to

First of all: no I am not very interested in fashion, perhaps I am fairly interested in the clothes I am wearing but I am for from becoming somewhat of a fashion icon. With that said I found some really interesting articles concerning fashion magazines and its movement online. Actually I was lurking around on Myspace kind of randomly and in the process I ended up adding an online fashion model.

As I said before one of our assignments in the course I’m attending is about writing about all the functions that our cellphone has. Unfortunately I don’t think they thought of my phone while thinking in terms of new media. Actually I have two phones. The first one is a Nokia 3210 which was top-notch when I got it… which was about 8 years ago. With today’s standards I would guess that it is more

So I should probably say that I am currently attending a course called “Information retrieval and new new media”. In that course we are suppose to talk about two things at the moment. The first thing is what kind of medias’ we use. To make it easier I am going to name each media and how I use it.First of all I use the TV and interestingly enough I use it to watch various TV-shows on. I would say

So, here it is - my first post ever on a blog. Not a very interesting first post, but it probably has its purpose. Who knows - I surely don't. Anyhow, you probably wonder why my blog is called Mircxism. It has a long and a short answer. The long answer is to long for anyone to stay interested so we'll skip that one. The short answer is that I am often called Mirc by my friends and over the years
