Four of the greatest inventions in media technology is television, radio, cellular phones, and the internet. Well there are much more than 4, but these are the ones that I chose for the exercise in my communication class this week.
Television is one of the greatest inventions because it can be used and enjoyed by all ages and by all types of people. It is one of the best ways to get information because someone is always going to be watching. The tv is used to send out notifications, amber alerts, announcements (whether good or bad), late breaking news about all types of subjects is seen on the television. It has always been used as a type of entertainment for the entire family, however television is not as family friendly as it used to be so many years ago. Lots of shows now are geared toward real time or "reality t.v.". I personally loathe reality tv because I believe that it lacks real substance. I'm so tired of the Jerry Springer, Maury and Kardashians that I would literally scream. People think that these shows are so funny, however I feel that it is definitely no laughing matter to watch people makes fools of themselves on National television where everyone can witness it. I miss the old sitcoms, like that of Happy Days, Leave it to Beaver, Ozzie & Harriet, Good Times, The Brady Bunch, Eight is Enough and Gilligans Island. They were a lot of fun and wasn't so caught up in violence and greed.
Hi SandraDee, I like how you discussed each technology in a separate post. I may have mentioned it before but your blog design is the same design I selected. The design is easy to navigate and read. Your blog URL is simple and easy to remember. I would suggest adding some type of widget to your blog that is in line with the purpose. Additionally, continue to add content from your previous communication classes. Please review my week 4 discussion 1 post to get a full review of your blog. Thanks,
