YouTube Reflections
After watching the YouTube video about how the world is becoming more digital, I can see how it has changed over time and made things a lot easier for society. The video started out with a person writing about how text is unlinear when it is written on paper. It soon switched to typing on a computer which seemed much quicker and looked a lot neater. From this, I noticed that using pen and paper or researching using books from a library is very time consuming and is starting to go out of style. Digital technology is very efficient and is connecting people throughout the world by just a click. The way people communicate and research is becoming totally digital because it is not that hard to use. Google enables us to search just about anything and be able to find something that is related to it. Things such as Facebook and personal blogs connect people all across the world and may account for the 100 billion people clicking on web pages per day mentioned in the video. I personally like the idea of being able to use digital for everything. It makes is so much easy to search, communicate, or just browse to waste time. The only thing that scares me is how easily someone can get your information. I am just very conscious of what I do on the internet.
