NEW media (Toby)

I agree that new media has benefited our lives. It has changed the way we communicate with one another. It allowed us to express our thoughts and ideas easily through blogs or social-networking websites like facebook. We communicate through the internet more than just communicating face to face. However some might say that we become more anti-social although we think that we are becoming more sociable though the use of new media. Previously, diaries are used instead of blogs. Blogs allows other users to see what we wrote as it becomes public information instead of private information in the diaries we previously used. Blogs help to enhance our way we explain things or events as it allows us to upload pictures to express instead of just words which sometimes difficult to explain. For example describing a place where you had your 16th birthday which requires a lot of descriptions. In addition, blogs allow people to read easily as the font could be choosed. Diary sometimes is illegible to read. Thus new media has changed our lives and allowed us to benefit more by being able to express our thoughts freely and easily.
