Internet's net result on election results
HUB OF DISCOURSE: Will the Internet make as big an impact in the next general election as it did the last time? Arman Ahmad speaks to three experts
However, Azizuddin said: "Traditional media still has a significant impact in influencing people's voting trend in the general election, especially for rural folk who have less access to the new media."
Arman Ahmad, New Straits Times
AS the 13th general election draws closer, the battle for the hearts and minds of voters is heating up. The ruling party and opposition blogs and websites are abuzz with activity, working hard at spreading their ideas.
The Internet is widely credited for the opposition's gains during the last general election. This time around, however, both sides seem equally matched in terms of online presence.
But how far will the Internet affect the outcome of the next election?
Experts said what people saw and read on the Internet would influence their opinions. However, they added, people would still vote based on other factors.
"People don't vote based on what they read on the Internet," said Julian Hopkins, communications lecturer at Monash University. Instead, he said, people voted based on what they experienced in life.
The election results will be mostly influenced by what people think about the government, and the direction the country is going.

Report From Internet Prom 2012

Last Saturday was the second annual Internet Prom. Most of my family attended, but the whole concept is still a mystery to people. Come let me show you exactly what this fun, online event is about:
Amanda, who is a musician and vlogger, sent out a video saying there would be a 2012 Internet Prom with all the links to various sites around the internet that would keep people updated: I followed the prom info mostly on Facebook because thats my chosen social site. People talking about their dates saying yes (or not.) Exactly what the prom was all about. And asking if it was OK to go alone (this was a common thread in the months leading up to the prom. The answer was Yes! Or Ill go with you!)
The first step of the Internet Prom is making a video to invite someone to attend with you, or a video explaining that youre going stag, or just reply somewhere that youre attending. Then the person you asked makes a response. Here is my daughter being asked by her good friend: And my daughters response:
Very sweet. I decided to be ridiculous. Heres my video:
A week before the actual prom Amanda asked if I would like to perform for the live broadcast on BlogTV. I said yes and then asked the rest of my band members to join me. Considering they are my family and would be in the house anyway, this worked out quite easily. The Friday night before prom, my nephew Peter and I worked out the kinks to a live musical broadcast. It was a good thing too, several of the performers had problems the actual night (do your homework, people!).
The Internet Prom consists of two activities: one is watching the live broadcast of musical people, and commenting. The other is making a video of yourself dancing. Then everyone watches YouTube videos of each other, and comments.
Saturday dawned beautiful for a prom. Not that it would really matter since Internet Prom is strictly indoors, no one is driving a limo anywhere, no pictures outside. In the afternoon my daughter found out her date couldnt make it and that was quite sad. Then we all made our prom video and that was quite silly. My husband (who was working in the garden most of the day) said they should go for a bike ride since it was so nice out. That was a great suggestion to get them out of the house while I edited. (My husband did pull me away from the computer for a bit since the kids were gone probably the only action the Internet Prom saw that day.) We all ate dinner, I uploaded the prom video, and we got ready for our live musical show.
Fortunately, everything went really well. Unfortunately, we forgot to record it. My son (who is not in the band) sat by the computer to read us comments in between songs. The prom goers were very excited. Someone became a fan of my daughter (our drummer) which made her happy again. After that, we went up to my moms house to sprawl on her couch and watch the YouTube videos, interspersed with the other musical acts on the live broadcast. Here are some of our favorites, including our own at the end:
We veered away from prom videos and showed each other our favorite comedy videos, which rounded out the entertainment nicely. I sent my kids to bed at 11, my mom said good-night, but my nephew and I stayed up to watch the end of the live broadcast with Amanda, the host of everything. She invited the girls to a Skype sleepover afterwards. I declined and went home. It may not have been intended for a family event, but thats what it was at our house and we loved it!
