The Start of M Study
March 14, 2009: M Study is created, first layout produced, rough outline drafted.
M Study initially came from the idea of Mafer’s Study. At first, Mafer wished to create a space to store any knowledge, thought and assignment – forming a base for her to virtually have a study where she can access all the things she had learned and thought about. It all started with a single post existed in her personal blog: Stories From A Weird Wizard, which sparked her desire in owning her own space for knowledge. However, after many considerations, she realized, instead of keeping all the knowledge to herself, restricted to her own, the flow of knowledge might be livelier if she let the space be publicly published.
Everyone has their own perspective towards the same thing. One tiny little object can bring millions and billions of meanings to every different people. Sharing knowledge is never the same as owning knowledge and keeping knowledge.
– Mafer Seow
Just because of this idea and attitude, Mafer decided to create a space for her to share all her knowledge on this site and besides, allowing opportunity for others to reply, chat and discuss about it. In her opinion, one people will never learn more knowledge than learning with more people, no matter whether they are good or bad in any aspect. “Each of us have side or sides that excel and might not be noticed yet. Those we thought were brilliant, are those who presented their excellent side to the world and earn allegiance,” said Mafer. Responsible as the site owner and moderator, Mafer drafted the outline of the site about what she should put up. Here is how this site is created.
