Week 1: Media Autobiography

 
We are surrounded by constant media everyday. Newspapers, magazines, movies, recordings, radio, television and the Internet are all types of media that I encounter everday. When i was young, television, books, and newspaper was our source of information and entertainmnt but these days it seems that the Internet seems have all the media source availible in one place. This is why I don't read the newspaper as much as i should, and mos of my reading the news is online.  I also use to watch the news on television but ever since I got an iPhone so most of the news information comes from my phone. Music, news and entertainment is so convienant to carry with advance technology these days that my average Internet usuage is atleast  25hrs+ per week. The Internet today houses almost everything we need when it comes to media. From movies to emails, the internet connects everyone together. I rely a lot of the Internet for research, news and entertainmnt more than most the media sources available. But one thing about the internet is that it's credibility could be questionable. Compare to books, magazines and other media that has to go through publishing, the Internet is doesn't have as much restriction than that of publishing media. I do like social netwoking sites like facebook. I believe it is a good way to keep connection to friends, family, and networking. It's especially great experience for my career in communication.
