Communication Change

Facebook. Facebook. Facebook. The one place that each of us goes. We go there to network. We go there to communicate. And we go there to keep in touch with friends. The common factor is our familiarity with the basis to contact each other. It was fairly interesting to see how each of us spends our time on the internet.

I was not very surprised at my classmates’ dependency on the internet. For me, the internet has always been a big waste of time. I could never figure out why anyone would want to waste so much time, which is precious already. Then I came to college. I have found myself changing how I view the internet, now that I have changed locations. The main thing that I like about the internet, now, is that it does waste time. It seems that since I have come here, I have so much more time to waste.

I started this blog off talking of Facebook, and the ties each of us has to it, but throughout the writing of this post, I have come to realize that Facebook is not the only thing that helps to immerse us all into the internet. However, it is one of many sites that help us to stay connected, while we continue to grow by way of using the internet for information exchange. Facebook, while it can be categorized into entertainment, also helps each one of us get our names out into the world. So, therefore, can it not be said that Facebook, in itself is a learning tool. The networking that goes on can only help to show everyone how to navigate through the many avenues and back alleys of interesting subjects the internet has to offer. Therefore, I have changed in my views through this assignment. It may have just helped me to learn a little bit more about myself.
