Awesome YouTube Video's!

Some of my faviourite YouTube video's are from the user FluffeeTalks; most of the time he gives his opinion on different things that are in the news or soemthing that has happened to him in his life. He makes it fun and enjoyable to watch; making fun of the many many dumb people in the world. He does swear a fair bit in his vodeo's but no adays there is hardly anywhere you can go without hearing swearing. So I think that he has the best video's on YouTube and also keeps you informed on this that are happening in the world. So check out FluffeeTalks!

Key Concept # 4

I think that a commerical during the superbowl is worth alot of money because so many people watch the superbowl. The more people that watch the more money a company would have to pay for their commerical to be during that time. If more people are watching the superbowl then more poeple will know about the product, whitch then could mean that more poeple will buy the produt. Superbowl commericals are alot more expencive then commericals that are at 11pm or so because they are during primetime; primetime is the time period when most people are watching tv. (i think) So that would make the superbowl more expencive because more people are watching. I think that the price of a commerical during the superbowl is reasonable for a large company because they will most likly make the money they spent on the advertisment back beacuse more people will see thee commerical so in turn that could mean that more people will buy the product making the company more money.

I really enjoyed this video because it shows what real poeple go threw; alot of movies just show the beautiful perfect side of life even though life really isn't that beautiful. This video show what happens to many woman and young girls, it doesn't perfect it and show skinny woman with money and a prince charming but shows the hard side of life. That people live on welfare and dont have many materialistic things. It gives notice to the fact that there are many young girls who have been raped by a family member or step-father, and that not everytime omething like that happens the cops are involved. Sometimes like in this movie the mother acts as if it was the child's fault; and the reason for that could be a mental illlness that hadn't been diagnosed. This movie is great and i would recconmend that you watch it. Its a beautiful story of hardship and love. It shows the strength that women can have and empowers them; it also shows that some women need help to become strong minded. I think its an empowering movie for women that could be struggling with the same thing and know that there are ways out and there are things out there to help these woman.

I use the internet daily for face book, weather and information for school and anything that I need or want to know. I watch TV daily as well I usually watch informational shows or shows that teach me about something but sometimes its fun to sit back and watch cartoons :) I also listen to music EVERYDAY! It's a part of my life to make sure I have my ipod and cell phone before I leave my house everyday. I text everyday at lest 100 times a day as well. I probably spend about $60 a month on my phone bill and music; and that doesn’t include the satellite bill that my parents pay for or the internet. I guess I make the media a far bit of money considering that what I pay for what they are selling is 10x's higher then what they pay for it.

Key Concept #6 Media have social and political implications: A vision of students tomorrow

I think that technology will have become more advanced. Technology is changing and becoming better all the time. We have new cell phones and ipods coming out all the time and those companies who own these products are looking to change them and make them better and add more things to them to make people throw out their old things are buy the new ones. The future students are probably going to know more about computers and technology then our generation ever did because they are being born into a world where technology is always changing and they can keep up with it better then we can. An example would be my 4 year old cousin; he's already a computer wiz, he can download games off the internet and then play them at his will. He's so smart and know what to do when the computer gets too slow or the game he's playing isn’t working anymore. If at 4 his generation can already do that just wait until they are a bit older. They could be hacking into things and working around the web like pros. This could be both good and bad, good in a way that we wouldn't have to teach these kids about how to use the computer as much as we needed to be taught how to. Although a bad thing could be that we'd need higher security for banks and other government things in case of hackers coming out with better technology. All in all you can never know what is going to happen but you can guess by the trends set now and how they have changed so much from the past.
