Hw 28

I'm not sure if I can find 5 sources that insight "cool" in our culture but I know about maybe three websites that talk about being "cool" or keeps us updated on celebrities life or what's going on in the world today.

www.mediatakeout.com

Gossips about Celebrities and what they think is going on between certain Celebrities or talks about "normal people" and things they do wrong that don't make them look cool.
This is basically the same thing as media take out and they both target the same thing.
this websiite shows mostly videos and some audio and it lets you the new hot videos or news to keep you updated. So in a way it makes you cool because if some one was to ask if you saw that new video you could say yea I seen it on world start hiphop.

HW 27

What I notice when I interviewed people on the streets was that some haven't been cool all there lifes and some been cool most of there lifes. One guy he was wearing a buisness suit and had a breif case so it look like he was on his way to work and I approched him and asked him what he think the definition of cool is? He said he thinks the definition of cool is being known by a lot of people so when you walk around people would come up to you and say aren't you such and such. Then I asked him was he cool in highschool and college? He said in Highschool he was real cool because he went to a small school and everybody knew eachother but he was known as one of the coolest guys. When he got to college everything chnage because he felt left out and he didnt know everyone. From interviewing that guy I think a lot of people have that same point of view and feel that the less people you know the more uncool you are.
