Internet Media

Another important type of media technology used is the internet. The internet is the fastest growing type of media technology used and is growing more and more every day. The internet serves several purposes. The internet is popular among everyone especially younger and middle aged audiences and is one of the quickest ways to find out information and to pass on information.

A person can use the internet to find out information about numerous different topics and is used quite often when doing research. You can also use the internet to check out the weather and local news in your area or to even find out what news is going on in other parts of the country and world. Many people use the internet to help plan their vacations as well. People can even do banking online and can shop and purchase items online and then have them delivered straight to their home without ever stepping into the actual store.

The internet connects people together through the use of social networking sites like Facebook and Skype. Facebook allows individuals to connect with old friends and make new friends. It is a good way for people to stay in touch especially if they live in different states or countries from their friends or relatives. Skype also connects people by allowing them to chat with each other and view each other on webcams. This is a very nice tool to have when you are separated from those you love and want to be able to see them live in real time.
