This week was dedicated to the submission of our group's first newspaper article. My group, comprising of myself, Pooja Maharaj and Yuvetha Sewlall managed to post our article onto the Newsportal website. Our article was on the censorship issues in China with regards to Google.

The previous week has been very disruptive with strikes on campus which has made it difficult for our group to co-ordinate our efforts into our article, however the end result is really good.

Hey,

The last few weeks has been very interesting. My newsgroup has begun to work on our news topic which is Google and its ongoing debate and negotiations with the Chinese government over the right to be allowed to be available to the public. We have also begun to create a zotero reference library for our group. Internet studies lectures are focusing on the history and development of the world news media and there are many interesting new aspects of the development of the news media that we are tapping into every lecture.

This week my group will begin to create a rough draft for our first newspaper article, which is very exciting. Hopefully I will be able to update the progress of the report during the week:)

til next time, take care
