Today I interviewed an Expert
On Thursday, I did a skype interview with a science fiction author, journalist, and Canadian-British Blogger who is known as Cory Doctorow. Cory is 48 years-old and happened to reveal to me, and my classmates, that he does not own a physical/official degree but he does have an honorary degree. This showed that you can obtain fame and recognition in many ways that don't include having the proper materials relating to education. He began to talk a lot about social media such as Instagram and TikTok ( he expressed how they gain fame from doing totally weird and almost dumb things in front of a camera) and he also talked about how school restricts students from a lot of things, that could also be resourceful, by blocking websites through their school devices. I also learned that a lot of businesses buy out other businesses that are smaller or better in order to reduce any competition coming their way, I honestly see it as a good tactic to get to the top or reach for whatever you want to pursue. Overall, the skype call with Cory Dotorow was quite intriguing and even though his level of thinking is much higher than mine, it still felt good to view perspectives of others on different topics.
