Digital conversations

“A digital conversation is a scripted dialogue between a person and a computer through various digital mediums.”

Quote found on the Internet

A digital conversation is defined as a structured interaction that takes place between a user and a computer, utilizing various digital channels to facilitate communication. This type of dialogue is typically governed by pre-established scripts that dictate the exchange, ensuring that the conversation remains focused and pertinent to the user's questions or requirements. The platforms that support these interactions can include chatbots, social media messaging services, and other online tools designed to mimic human conversational patterns.

The hallmark of a digital conversation lies in its use of scripted replies, which are meticulously crafted to respond to specific inquiries from the user. This structured approach streamlines the communication process, allowing the computer to efficiently access and deliver information based on the predefined dialogue structure. Furthermore, the integration of digital platforms enhances user accessibility, enabling individuals to engage in conversations at their own pace and convenience, thus overcoming the limitations often associated with in-person interactions.

The importance of digital conversations is underscored by their role in connecting human users with technological systems, creating a fluid interface for the exchange of information. As these digital interactions evolve, they increasingly incorporate advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, which contribute to more responsive and tailored user experiences. Ultimately, digital conversations signify a significant evolution in the way people communicate with technology, reshaping the dynamics of interaction in the contemporary digital landscape, particularly in the context of the pandemic from March 9, 2020, to 2023.

Blogs for marketing and strategy purposes

" A blogger is someone who runs and controls a blog . He or she shares his or her opinion and knowledge on different topics for a target audience. Many bloggers feel strongly about an issue or topic, and they are motivated to write about it to bring attention to a need. This might be a social issue or cause, a problem that needs to be fixed, a belief or value that they hold strongly, or just a desire to help people. Blogging enables you to reach the billions of people that use the Internet . Blogging can help you promote yourself or your business. Blogging works as a method for attracting an audience because it provides something of value to them before asking for anything in return.

Why Work with Women and Girls?

" As women, we have been taught to always compete with each other and compare ourselves on the basis of the way we look and act. Working with each other closely kills that way of thinking, empowers us and helps us create together in an environment that we feel safe in." Therefore, working with women and girls not helps me to empower them to feel good about themselves, but to heal themselves from trauma and other experiences that they may encountered. Organizations such as Esther Productions, Inc and the African American Women's Resource Center allowed me to work with a diverse set of women and girls from different backgrounds and sexual orientation beliefs. In 2004, I began to work with Esther Productions, Inc and from 2017 - 2018, I provided services for the African American Women's Resource Center. Esther Productions, Inc. is dedicated to using a variety of vehicles—traditional and nontraditional—to develop communities throughout the United States and Europ...

Father/Daughter Relationships

Father and daughter is a "complex one, and all the more so given that it has perhaps been explored less than other relationships." Unfortunately, the kind of relationship that I have had with my father is the disappointed daughter. I feel as though that my father was a stranger that I met on the street because of the type of relationship that I had with him. It's a chilly relationship between the pair of us, and I am quite aware of this. I became distanced with him when I was 13 which was in the Summer of 1989. I grieved for the father that I could not have for many years. When I was growing up, I experienced all of the symptoms of father-shaped gap. Yet this has also made me slightly distant with other people, especially men, who I always fear will disappoint me. I feel persistent regret at the fact that I missed the opportunity to know my father because he divorced my mother and remarried when I was 13. This creat...
