Have the new media changed our lives for the better?

Have the new media changed our lives for the better? gracy's P-E-E-L
New media has changed our lives for the better as it provides us an opportunity to make a wider circle of friends and gain popularity.
Before the advent of new media such as blogs and twitter, communication among people is limited to meet ups and functions through the mobile and telephones the people we want to talk to. Now, anyone and everyone can read what you type almost instantly.
Take Bryan Boy, a virtual ‘nobody’ who started to blog 5 years ago has become a phenom in the fashion blogosphere. Through blogging, he has displayed his daily fashion pieces and his life was changed overnight from a person with no status to a person who is renown in the fashion industry. From this, we can see that Bryan Boy’s live have been changed for the better as his talent has been uncovered and his passion of designing clothing is supported by many people.
Therefore, the new media has improved our lives in a way it helps us to become more connected with others.

    Gracy, your understanding of the concept of new media is very clear here.

    However, capitalise on your example and highlight how new media allows consumer/viewer-generated content to become as credible/popular, if not more so, than mainstream or traditional media.
