PRIMA FACIE means "face the world"
REVIEW includes a Facebook application that is a website where you can design a path and be the web guide for anything online that strikes your fancy. Rather, you may pass on becoming a game board master or zen guru and just meditatively, and with an open mind, follow the cues and take the path. It has an ability, if you finish a path and receive your token badge for the facebook wall, to glimpse the game designer's interior motivations and player intentions too.
GAME MASTER vs. ZEN PLAYER
I invite you to walk my 'webcam social' path
VISIT THERE just read and click banner
- the game path requires some investment so the first recommendation is bookmarking the host site and the game page.
Read about constructing a game path or walking a path ... or both. THEN close the tab and walk away for a day.
Return with intent to visit and invest the first mileage reading the introduction and background of the ='webcam social' path. A bit of a repeat as path author and guide, me, relates my interest, investment and statement of purpose.
You take the path you receive:
- a banner logo or 'flag' for your journey
- a creature revealed as your mascot
- a test to follow the mascot and ensure you are on a mission
- a spin at the Wheel of Fortune - a text-only chat roulette (no webcam needed)
- with luck, a new camarade on Facebook or two or more...
- a reward for journaling your path is a package of free licensed webcam software
- a complete make-over including hair, lighting, make-up and preparation for your close-up in webcam chat roulette
- a stern warning and advice about safeguard and moderating the visual anonymity
- enter the arena, the 'gladiator's dome' of live, streamed and broadcast webcam chat roulette times three
- Complete all the steps and the journey and you will receive your badge.
As a blogger and social network tramp, it is always emphasized in my bios or 'about me's that my alias is "webcamsocial" on twitter.
See s'pose it's a mission to bring masses safely through the past years grunge and gauntlet of chat rooms, chat roulettes that feature webcam use blatantly. I guess it does me no good explaining to you the 'culture shock' that may be reserved from anonymous and random webcams opening a broadcast stream in your browser.
