@MUcomm1200 While reading the article about how the internet is being ruined by trolls, the part about the disinhibition effect caught my attention. The effects from this has people feeling invisible on the internet and it is now correlating into our non-internet lives.
@MUcomm1200 I found the digital divide to be interesting because it handles the questions to be more or less than a yes or no. People in this day in age, have some remote access and exposure to technology.
@MUcomm1200 I found it interesting in the article relating to Net Neutrality that if the internet providers did not limit video streaming back in the 2000s, we would not have the sources like Netflix today.
@MUcomm1200 In the article, "Free! Why $0.00 is the Future of Business," the quote by Stewart Brands reminds us about how information is free but also is expensive. Our society is driven by both. The tension of them will not disappear as long as the internet exists.
In chapter 5 in Living in a media world, I thought it was interesting that halftone allowed photographs to directly be reproduced in their publication, instead of being copied into a drawing. @MUcomm1200
@MUcomm1200 One quote I found interesting in the reading from Big Data in Publishing is, "James writes emotion turns with such a beat that reader feels thrum of her words in their bodies like the effect of music." This opens up a whole new world thinking about reading.

Social media has been around for many years, one could think that it is the one form of social media that has ever been around. The difference between social media today and back then is that it is more convenient, which helps for more accessible contact with people.
A quote by Twenge, "I think we like our phones more than we like actual people," stood out to me because we can see not only in our generation but the younger generation that they would instead be indulged in social media rather than having social interaction. @mucomm1200
if you’re a slut for iced coffee and saving the environment (like me), Starbucks is selling a reusable color changing cup set. 5 cups, lids, and straws and you save when you bring them in 💓💓
