My main takeaway from this class is realizing that as technology advances, something is disrupted. This class brought to my attention of that fact. It something that I never paid attention to. I always seen technology as an improvement as a good thing, but over looked what made
@ShaikhE14 Hi Shaikh, I agree with you. During the height of the pandemic, a lot of technical jobs were hiring. The pandemic has given people a realization on how we all depend on technology. DCIM353A
@QIQIQI86114591 I agree, because of the pandemic, I believe the demand for technology has increased. With that being said, we will see new emerging tech that are very efficient and effective to our needs. #DCIM353A
In the reading from week 3, “Creating the Internet Age” it gave a timeline on the history of technology and media. This can relate to our essay because, we are currently benefitting the most from technology now because of the pandemic.
@kmr3441 Hi katelyn, I’ also wrote about how impactful Elon Musk’s digital presence is. A single tweet from him, had almost everybody buying GameStop stock. I agree with you about him utilizing hashtags to inform others and providing updates. #LIDC93SP21
@NickTorres21 Hi Nick, Lebron is a great choice. I’m not just saying this cause he’s my favorite player either. I feel he doesn’t get the credit he deserved for all the things he does outside of basketball and I love how vocal he is in the digital world. #LIDC93SP21
@laurentenRU Hi Lauren, great pick to do your EDTP. Self-driving cars are becoming extremely popular, such companies such as Tesla, lucid , and waymo are trying to prefect cars for our everyday use. #DCIM353A
@carbeitel Hi Cassandra, AI is becoming extremely popular. They’re especially popular in self driving cars and search engines. Pretty soon we will be seeing them everywhere. #DCIM353A
In the article, Leadership in the Twitterverse, it states that “leaders are not tweeting in order to gain popularity
but rather to inform followers of their opinions”. and I believe Musk is a great example of just that. https://t.co/j7jOHjwoDt

A digital leader that has a strong digital presence is Elon Musk. Recently, he was responsible for the 20% increase in the cryptocurrency bitcoin. Before that, Musk tweeted a simple word “gamestonk” which increased GameStop stock evaluation by 10 billion.
@HuynhhPeter Technology is playing a big role in our life right now. I believe if there was any network outage, I don’t thinking people will know how to react. Right now most businesses and schools are widely relying on technology, with such a outage it will shock everyone. #DCIM353A
@Charlie_317 Digital news plays a big role for me personally. I’m not one to sit down and watch the news. About 60% of my news is receive from a digital means. Also, with digital news, news can be constantly updated. In a sense digital news is more reliable in my opinion. #DCIM353A
@ShaikhE14 Technology is playing a big role when it comes to the dating scene. Apps like tinder, eharmony, and match are constantly being used. There’s no need to actually go out and meet people when you can meet them at your finger tips. #DCIM353A
