Social networking have made a BIG impact on our generation and society for the past couple of years. With the use of Facebook and Youtube, many have stopped the use printing networks such as newspapers and magazines. But the use of these social networks can help get in contact with old friends, stay in contact with new friends, or just meet new friends. I know Facebook helped me keep in contact with my friends that went away to college. Youtube (used in our class) is beneficial in that it provides supplementary material to our lesson. Youtube can be a great way to show information in video/picture form and providing a concise example of something you need to understand. Although media technology is taking over, we cannot forget about books. With technologies such as the iPad, or the Nook, paperbacked books are becoming less and less desirable. But for me, holding a book in my hand is more accessible because then I don't have to worry about charging my Nook or all the technological aspects to the device.
