110917 We are privileged to have everything in our hands in just a snap. Not like in before where we have to do things manually. We can get food just by ordering online or dialing it on the telephone and someone would deliver it. The world changed very fast and the evolution of media is a proof to that And I am very thankful with all these new inventions that I can get to do thing fastly without too much work.

110817 Honestly, I didn't know that there are such things like technology literacy, media literacy, information literacy and media & information literacy. At first I thought that it was just merely having the awareness when using media, technology, information and media & information. But the truth is it is the ability to identify, understand, interpret, create and compute using this platforms. I learned that now that I have entered a new platform and with the ability that I have, I also need to follow policies, securities and netiquette. And this gave me a new realization. I remembered what Spiderman said "With great power, comes with great responsibility." and realized that having able to have this blog is a power because I can get to post anything but WORDS ARE POWERFUL. I can post anything but these words can make make someone happy or hurt. I need to be responsible with every actions that I will make.

110717 Media and Internet providers have always been a big part of my daily life. I woke up every morning and the first thing I do was to check my phone for any messages or news. I realized that these providers consume a lot of my time like for example, my Facebook account. Facebook doesn't only serve as a medium for communication for me but I also use it for leisure.Being dependent on technology is very hard especially for us in the 21st century. And having no Internet, libraries, cellphones, newspapers, magazines, television etc. would seem impossible for us to live without. I realized that it would make a big impact in our lives since our lives seem to be easier with these providers.
