How would you define the role of Digital Media in society?
Digital media is becoming more and more prevalent in today's society. It is fast and easily accessible to virtually anyone that has access to the technology. Instead of getting news from a traditional newspaper, within an instant, we can have the same information readily available with the touch of a button. Digital media has an expectation to deliver information to the public at a rapid rate and reach wider scope of people compared to traditional methods.
What is the most valuable piece of digital technology you own?
The most valuable piece of digital technology that I own right now is my laptop. I have access to the internet that is also pretty mobile. I can use my laptop at home or bring it to class to work on assignments. It also has the Adobe Creative Cloud on it which is very valuable since it does cost a lot of money if you are not a student using it for educational purposes. It also has important files on it as well as a lot of my personal pictures I've taken about 5 years ago up until now.
What is your greatest frustration with living in a digital world?
My greatest frustration with living in a digital world is that there is new technology coming out every year or couple of years. A good example of this would be Apple's iPhone line. One might think that they have the latest technology and they are set for a couple years, but then the new iPhone comes out and suddenly your phone that was new a year ago is now outdated. I also get frustrated with the consumer's desire to constantly have the newest best thing. Someone might have year old iPhone 5 but the iPhone 6 comes out and they are suddenly unsatisfied with the phone they have that is still fully functioning.
