Digital Media

Hello Everyone,

First and foremost, thank you for checking out my post. I’m super excited to start this blog i don’t have much experience blogging, but I’ve always been curious about bloggers journey because you can learn so much about someone from reading about their most profound thought or life adventure. Now I’m doing the same, so hang in there. 

Now days, we all wonder what we use the most as far as applications or sites. Well, I consider myself a good browser because I’m always finding myself browsing on social media whether it’s on Instagram, TikTok or YouTube. I like browsing on YouTube, I’ve learned a lot on YouTube whether is self-care, professional knowledge, or personal care.  I like to refer to YouTube as the university of the world, you literally can get all sides of the world through others post whether it’s the love for culture, food, and religion. I’ve literally visited many places through others vlog whether it’s my favorite food bloggers post or just learning something new and educational.Everything in life has pros and cons, we all can relate to how much involvement we have on social media in the past 2 years. We’ve learned to connect with people through watching TikTok so we can feel less lonely during the pandemic. We’ve learned new challenges to connect with our children and families, and we’ve even taken on the trendy dance on Tik Tok to connect with friends and families, for some it’s just using Instagram live to listen to our favorite artist concert.  We’ve had to adjust to a whole new life that includes digital media.

 

The uprise of the digital media has affected us in not so much positive way when it comes to connect with others outside of the digital world. I find myself very comfortable using TikTok to the point that some days i spent hours in between lunch break and downtime watching someone else’s life but not doing much with mine, and i even find myself making excuses for why i’m not doing any of those things i admire others for whether it’s traveling or experiencing new things. My needs are satisfied using Youtube because I’ve learned a lot of skills whether it’s listening to Podcast, or DIY (do it yourself) on hair styles, decorations, cooking and even tools for my career.  Using social media has its pros, whether it’s receiving email on products you use or simply receiving email through sites you were seeking information. I usually receive email that relates to Instagram whether it’s promoting a product or an offer of becoming an ambassador for a brand, or just receiving information about a company i was researching on or brand i was interested in. I’m usually thrilled when i received email on anything that spikes my interest whether it’s feedback from a particular brand I’m interested in, or an employment I’m interested in. Digital media and marketing today have evolved tremendously and i think it’s just the beginning of new era.
