I admire the second article that was posted by Washington Post Newspaper on Social Network for Social Causes topic because it has very detailed information about social causes. The one which I liked called Kiva website where they lend money to poor countries. The Kiva website is doing such a great job to help other people. It is not only concentrating on one country, they also lend money to other poor countries peoples too. I believe that everyone have wants and needs. As a Canadian citizen or working as a Canadian employee, one of the biggest advantages we have is the power of our Canadian dollar. One Canadian dollar will make a lot of difference in the lives of people.. There are many countries around the world, whether a third world country or another low currency value rate country, a Canadian dollar can make a big difference in the lives of their people. The also admire the Idealist because they do not just have one program for charity, they have so many programs that people can help in too. On their website they provide blogs, podcast and community where people can go and help out in any way they can at their best level. You can donate money anytime through any way and by doing this on humanitarian grounds we can change the lives of those who need the most.
I also admire the Razoo social causes website because they are connecting people together to help someone that will award them in future. In their website they provide video and pictures of Nicaragua, where we can see how much they need help. Believe it or not we can change the lives of those if we only donate 1 dollar each day. The social network really makes difference in today’s world. Therefore, from social network website we can help many people.
If I were doing the social causes in blog I would choose Charity given to improve the water sewing systems in areas where water is not supplied on a standard safety level. For example places like suburbs of Sudan, Africa or Villages of South Asian countries like Pakistan, India and Srilanka. I can have a blog about poor countries water problem, describing how the water is delivered in those areas. Also, I can post pictures and videos about what kind of water is being used there. We may donate the water or in future we can help them fix their water systems through our funding and technology. The water can also make a lot of difference in their life, humans need water every minute. It should be clean water. I can promote my blog by adding in Facebook and tell my friends to give some idea how we can fix this problem. If they are interesting to do this we can build a website with more information. I will be also making community about my causes and telling everyone how important is it to drink safe water. This will help poor people in many ways, they will not get sick. We just do not drink water; we use it in many ways in our daily lives on normal basis, for example in our food or for agriculture. I hope we will do something for them and also make their life better.

Resume Blog
The blog resume is a good proposal to have in your blog. It will allow bloggers to find the job. People can comment on your resume, by having commented you can edit the resume. It is much easier to update the resume blog, it is just like a online portfolio, it is available 24 hours and 7 days from anywhere in the world. It is useful tool to find a job.
1, Resume Blog (http://robertshugrue.blogspot.com/)
The blog resume I have chosen is Robert Shugru’s resume where he gave all the information about himself. He includes a very colorful page for his resume. He has written the address extremely unclear. The user can’t see the address clearly. It is a very detailed resume which includes both professional experience and education. The font I think should be little larger so it will be easy to read. His blogs say a lot about his experiences, and by looking at his experiences; people can say he is knowledgeable person. He didn’t mention anything interesting facts about him which will attract the user’s interest. He should have included his interest and separate skills section. I think he should also include awards and achievements. He doesn’t have his personal life in his resume or anywhere in the page. The personal life should be separate from the professional life. His blog have shows that he have a lot of experience about technology, he have worked for many famous company as Motorola, and Adeeco. He also has shown the year when he worked in the company. I would prefer. His blog had shown the serious business where the user can judge him by looking at his resume.
2, Resume Blog http://andrewlza.blogspot.com/2006/10/my-resume.html
The second blog I have chosen is about Andrew Loh resume. He has included his address, education, awards and achievements, creative and analytical writing, leadership and community and skills and interest. It is very interesting resume blog because he has included so many experiences. The format is well organized; the font is very big and easy to read. He has included his GPA also where he indicated he got 4 GPA. He have got many awards, he provided the link to the awards, that the excellent for reader to know about more about his awards. His skill and interest font has change to small. The important part is that he didn’t include his address, and phone number. The resume blog represent him, it discuss about him only and his accomplishment. This blog will help him for his career. He didn’t include his personal life in his resume blog except for his education and achievement. I think that Andrew Loh have tell everything truth in resume. The resume is presented very nicely.
If I were to create a blog resume, I would include the objective, education, skills, experience, volunteer, and interest. These are the very important fields to include in a resume. I would not include my phone number or address because I think that should be confidential, instead I will leave my email address where they can contact me. I would not include any personal information in my resume. The format will be text because it will be easier for other people to read it. For me it will be easier to do in word document because that format is very easy to understand. It will help the company who is looking for employment can easily find the text format and they will be available to contact me quickly by emailing. The resume blog will be very helpful to me to find my future career.

Corporate Blog
Choice of Corporate Blog: Microsoft
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/better-vista.aspx (article link)
Recently World’s biggest IT firm, Microsoft has introduced the new product window server 2008. They are combining windows vista and windows server 2008 to provide customers with better service while they surf and use their products. This articles goes in to specific details about how they going to improve the windows vista. The features that windows vista and Windows Server 2008 will portray are they can hold many data such as offline files, the transactional file system, better communications, Server Message Block, security policy, and network client validation. This will help the business world in a great way because it can monitor specific events. Also it can forward data to windows server 2008 for more information. Another excellent feature it gives that it can make sure those customers, connecting to the network, are secured and clients can print jobs. These two articles provide review of the products stated above. It tells the customers how use-full and simple the product is, therefore everyone can use this product easily. Every year Microsoft is trying to promote new products, vista is one the big example of it. Microsoft’s aim is to provide trouble-free, basic and understandable products for customers to help them make easy usage of the computers for everyday life.

http://blogs.msdn.com/nickmac/archive/2008/02/05/microsoft-releases-windows-vista-service-pack-1-windows-server-2008-to-manufacturing.aspx(comment link)
The purpose of the corporate blog posting was to tell the users about the new product. They are marketing this product so the customer will buy the product. In the blog they are telling about the how useful the product is. They are combing vista and window server 2008 together and seeing how the user will reply to this new product. Many users have given their opinion about the product. Vista and Window server 2008 share same code. Many users gave their opinion how they felt about the new product, I felt some are happy to see the new product, some are not they are just complaining about Microsoft product. My opinion is that it accomplishes its purpose because by searching about this product I saw many articles and blogs about the products, also this blog easily describe the purpose of the product, users have gave their opinion, and they wanted to customer to read the blog and they did. This is the one of marketing the product. I think the one way of improving this is to provide little history about Microsoft products because some users are not happy with vista, they should provide information how useful is vista, they should provide more information about how the feature will work. This should provide information that will satisfy the customer about the product. On the other hand, I would definitely like to use this product and see what have they changed in the new product.

This is also a corporate blog where they are having launch of Microsoft Server 2008 in Los Angeles. Their product is for third generation with lots of features in it. It is a great product for everyone. The Microsoft is really working hard for their customers to create new products. It will be a great opportunity for users to use this product. These blogs will definitely help Microsoft to get ideas what their customers really want and based on that Microsoft can provide better service and products to customers related those ideas or problems. They have accomplished their goal by providing specific details about the product. I would say they can provide more about the past product, for example a little more details on window vista.
