Creative and Innovative

Trainer: Prof. Dr.Barjoyai Bardai

Today I'm very happy and felt lucky because I have opportunity to learn creative and innovative subject. The trainer is very expert and really creative man.




First, we learn the principle: Every new ideas is wrong idea and good idea. He always said, our subconscious mind is very powerful. So, to test our unconscious mind, we need to hit the potato by straw, until the straw penetrate the potato. Alhamdulillah, I manage to  do that.

How to reach an audience through blogging???

 
 
 
In my opinion, blog is one of the communication tools to convey messages to the community. However, only certain people who have internet and computer can interact through blogging. There are various numbers of topics that we can share for example personal life experiences, events, cooking recipes, sports, travelling, hobbies, entertainments, education, job seekers and others.
 
Nowadays, a lot of people have their own blogs, including public figures such as Tun Dr. Mahathir, George Clooney and Julia Powell. And for your information, Julia Powell become millionaire by blogging because her blog had been made into movie.

But, how to reach an audience through blogging?
 
 
 
In my opinions, there are three aspects that we need to be emphasize.
 
 
 
 
1) Topic
 
  • The topic that you want to focus must be interesting and catchy. For example, housewives prefer to search information about cooking recipes or teenagers who love to search more on entertainments and new gadgets. So, we can provide relevant informations for the different target of audiences.
 
 
2) Writing style
 
  • The writing styles also play an important roles to attract the audience. Most people loves to read simple, easy to understand and straight-forward writing styles. However, it is depends on the different target audiences. For example,the businessman bloggers are more serious and profesional in their way of writing to ensure the trustworthy of the clients and customers about their business. But, teenagers bloggers usually use modern languages, write whatever that they want and not serious.
  • So, bloggers have to know how to manipulate the title and the articles of the blog so that it will be more attractive. The contents must not be too long and complicated.
     
    3) Blog appearance
     

    • Besides, the appearance of the blog should be clear with the appropriate font size and colors. The widgets and other applications must be organize accordingly and not too crowded. Once, you have a blog, you need to have passions to update your blog so that the audiences will keep reading your blog and give good remarks.

ReaD TwICE =)



Read out loud the text inside the triangle below.


EyeTestT.gif

 
More than likely you said, "A bird in the bush," and........
if this IS what YOU said, then you failed to see
that the word THE is repeated twice!
Sorry, look again.
 



Next, let's play with some words.
What do you see? 
 
EyeTestT..jpg

 In black you can read the word GOOD, in white the word EVIL (inside each black letter is a white letter). It's all very physiological too, because it visualize the concept that good can't exist without evil (or the absence of good is evil ).  



 
Now, what do you see?
 
 
 file00020.gif

 

 
You may not see it at first, but the white spaces read the word optical, the blue landscape reads the word illusion. Look again! Can you see why this painting is called an optical illusion?

This one is quite tricky!
The word TEACH reflects as LEARN.
What do you see here?

Last one.

You probably read the word ME in brown, but.......
when you look through ME
you will see
YOU!
 

Do you need to look again?
