For my final project, I've created a short video by using MTV's "True Life" theme. In my video, I discuss various issues that our generation is dealing with being addicted to social media. I've posted my video on my personal social media pages such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to get feedback from my followers. The point of my video was to make people realize how addicted and dependent they are on social media networking websites.
PROS:
- Great way to advertise your business/brand
- A successful way to network
- Can make you known/famous
CONS
- Ruining relationships and marriages daily
- Making it harder than ever to stay focused
- Has the ability to taint reality
“We are changed as technology offers us substitutes for connecting with each other face-to-face. We are offered robots and a whole world of machine-mediated relationships on networked devices. As we instant-message, e-mail, text, and Twitter, technology redraws the boundaries between intimacy and solitude.”
