Three ideas for wikiHow article's

wikiHow is an informational website, developed to explain the step by step procedures of any task that is being searched on the website. This website is extremely useful in helping anyone that has internet connection, and a question of how to do something. This blog post will be about three different subjects and how to procedurally do them. 

The first of the three subjects will be how to do a “time under tension workout.” As a person who has worked out for over five years this wikiHow article will be very in depth. A time under tension workout is exactly what it says it is. While working out any muscle on your body, the muscles will be spending a longer amount of time under tension. This is used to increase muscle while decreasing fat, at a faster and more efficient rate than regular workouts.

Executing these workouts are fairly easy, but take some getting used to. While working on any muscle people push and pull, then release the motion bringing whichever part of the body being worked on back to the original position. This process is also known as “TO and FRO.” The push and pull are the “TO”, while the body part coming back to its original position is the “FRO”. To properly execute a Time Under Tension workout, the push or pull are going to be done at a normal rate of motion. The part which separates time under tension from all other workouts, is the release motion. 

The second of the three subjects will be how to funnel a beer. Funneling a beer is surprisingly not already on wikiHow. The art of beer funneling is something that doesn’t take a ton of time to learn. Not everything on wikiHow has to be extremely in depth, sometimes people like to learn how to do things in a couple of easy steps. 

Funneling a beer is used to get people intoxicated quicker than drinking beer at a normal rate. Beer funnels are often used at parties or tailgating events. Beer funneling takes two people to complete the process. 

The funnel itself has a bowl type shape at the top connected to a hose, in which the person drinking beer is on the bottom end drinking the beer. In order to successfully funnel a beer, the person at the top must open the can or bottle of beer pour it into the bowl while the person receiving the beer drinks it from the hose on the other end. 

The third and final subject will be how to mix a song on Protools. Now a days there are several people trying to become musical artists. In order to be successful in today’s industry artist’s must be able to mix their own vocals and beat together. In order to do so artists must have the knowledge of how Protools works and what a quality mix sounds like.

In this wikiHow tutorial there will be a step by step guide on how to mix recorded vocals into a track, so that they have a high quality of sound to compete with industry standards. Having been in the music industry for seven years, the wikiHow tutorial will be very educational. 

The Incredible Impact of Social Media

The Incredible Impact of Social Media 

Social media is the most impactful tool of this generation. It can reach anyone about anything, anywhere in the world. This of course can be extremely good or terrible, depending on how the platform is being used and by who. Social media can at times be very intrusive. 

If a family is sitting at the dinner table eating and everyone is on their phone using social media, the in-person connection is lost. It can also be intrusive in the way that people can say anything about anyone for the world to see. If you told your best friend a secret, they could easily post it on social media and now everyone knows. 

The previous example is exactly why there should be held responsibilities when using social media. People should be held accountable for posting or uploading offensive and detrimental content. Social media is an incredible tool, but also requires a massive amount of responsibility, especially when speaking on someone or something of influence. 

Recently social media has been used for a great cause. This cause was bringing awareness to the burning of the Amazon rain forest. If people didn't have social media, they would not have known so quickly. It doesn't just stop there, through social media people set up fundraisers. Major influencers such as Leonardo DiCaprio set up a campaign to raise money for the restoration of the rain forest. Without the use of social media there is no way that such a movement would have been able to take place so quickly. This example of social media being used for good is one of many. Although there are many occasions in which social media is used for negative purposes. 

The effect of social media's future is hard to decipher. With anyone being allowed to post anything, finding the truth becomes harder. People must become more educated and check multiple sources before confirming that an article or post they just read is factual. With that being said there shouldn't be a regulator deciding what can be put on the internet. As the idea might be effective it will become a problem. 

The problem lies in how the regulator would be used. In America we have freedom of speech therefore the people can say and post what they want. If this was regulated for factual information only it would be a violation of our constitutional rights. That is why checking multiple reliable sources for credibility is so important. For social media to have a mostly positive influence in the future, the people using it must be educated enough to decipher fact from fiction. 

If people check their sources and use social media with responsibility, there should be a bright future for social media in general. Of course, there will be negative situations, but with anything involving pro's comes cons. The effectiveness of social is so great positively or negatively that it is here to stay. Learn how to use it to your advantage or you will become the used one.
