Blog #1 modern media

The relationship that I have with media today has significantly changed and reshaped the way that I live and interact with people and events throughout the world. One primary example is the fact that I am writing this blog for a class assignment. The concept of learning online blogging or journalism and being taught new ways to interact with people digitally has created a whole new relationship in how I can connect with people and share my views and opinions and creativity with people all over the world.

 The most popular kind of media that I use and create regularly is viral videos. Youtube is a website that I find myself visiting multiple times a day. I find it extremely interesting and catch myself wondering aimlessly throughout the world of youtube watching funny and pointless videos that are from all around the world and can be viewed from my laptop and even my phone now.

            The idea of newspapers is almost obsolete now, with internet websites like New York Times and CNN and Yahoo news constantly being updated throughout the day, people don’t have to wait all day and read the news the next morning, we can hear and watch the news as it happens. The news is even done more and more through viral videos and less of Articles. News websites have even become user friendly and allow interaction and feedback, instead of just watching the news now we can leave feedback and comments and people can express there opinions right on the website about different events.
