Digital media in my life

 I hope to learn more about appreciation of digital art and seeing digital media in a new way. Most people only have an impression about digital media is practical and convenience. But I believe there are some more values in it other than practical use.

 YouTube and online communication tools. YouTube is like an audio and video library. Many clips I found are so entertaining. YouTube is very user-friendly, input one key words and then hundreds or more results are listed. For sure, it is a good way to kill time. But on the other side, it can be educational and inspiring.  And what's more important is free. When comes to here, I want to make a short conclusion, as YouTube and online communication tools share quite a lot of similarities. They are free, good way to kill time and brought convenience to our lives. Work efficiency is enhanced with these medias and most people can enjoy them without price. But still one good point I want to highlight for YouTube is the creativity and possibilities it generated. Many people with passion in making video, they can have a world-wide and free platform to do whatever they want. It can be shown to millions possible audience. But the negatives always follow from the positives. We always unaware how many time we used in these two medias. Over-usage is unnecessary and a time-waste. Also because of the convenience and instance they brought, many things that are shallow were produced. For example, online communication tools allow instant messaging, we would say many things without a deep thought. When it becomes a habit, we maybe fast thinking with many logical mistakes and emotional.
