Personal Reflection Question

• What is your viewpoint about the role of digital media and how these digital media plays a big part in your life today? In other words, how will digital media impact (influence) on your life in the future? Will this be positive or negative? Why?

I don’t think the future would be the active type, seeing how we are today anyways/ sort of. Though I can imagine the world being very social online but anti social in person. We would either create a lot of relationships or an online war, it all depends.
