Wiki So Far

Today I contributed to the wiki on the Graphic Design page. I made edits to the section on softwares for graphic design. I study Graphic Communications so I thought I would be able to make a decent contribution to this page. The original entry listed "popular softwares for graphic design", two I was not familiar with. I followed the reference link on that section to an article featuring the best free graphic design softwares. I changed the title of that entry to "Free Softwares" and created a new section for "Adobe Softwares" which are the standard softwares for graphic designers. I'm attaching some screenshots of my edits.

You could have a better understanding of what other people are exposed to day to day and perhaps understand why someone has developed such strongly differen...

I would like to analyze the positive and negative effects of the switch from a television set to computers for watching TV shows and series. I have listed some positives and negatives below and will continue to broaden the list. I want to investigate how the switch to personal devices has caused negative backlash in the cable industry. I also want to discuss how this increased popularity has allowed for more professionals in the industry (actors, writers, directors) to have more work.  Positive -viewers have their own time to watch what they want -more artists have more opportunity for work (screenwriters, actors, directors, etc) -more viewers, more audience, more success Negative -difficult to reach viewers because they have gone rogue, cannot share advertisements  -cannot develop ratings on viewers reception of the sho...
