The influence of the internet on daily life...

The Media as a whole has a large effect on everyday life.

As we know the Media is everywhere; TV, internet, magazines, radio etc, and they is no way to avoid it. This has made it a lot easier for us to be influenced and for us to be able to influence others.

One major part of the media industry is the internet. It is used daily and it pretty much gets used by every one of all ages.

Anything can be found on the Internet and as it is so simple to use there is no way to hide it even if we wanted to.

There is a 100% chance that at some point the Internet will influence you. We may not think about it but even looking at films reviews is helping you do decided whether or not you want to see it; also things like looking for cars for example, all the checking of details can be found somewhere on the Internet, therefore you don’t even have to leave your house before you need to pick it up.

Everyone has a lot to say and a lot of people like to use the Internet to tell us what they are thinking. Home made websites, chat sites, blogs and networking sites such as Facebook, Bebo and Myspace are all created by the public therefore everything that is on them is what they want us to know. Networking sites are possibly some of the most influential sites as they are the most visited and used by all ages; this means everything from music to sport is on them and we get the chance to read about them.

Although this may be a good thing, at times there are things we may not want children to see, and as children are easily influenced, straight away the Internet in some respects is to into something negative.

When we were first asked to do the blog, I thought it was going to be a lot harder than it actually was. Not only have I found it a lot easier to create I have also had the chance to look and find out more about other blogs. I didn’t realise there was so many, but I think our group blog is something different.

I think that the blog was a good idea, and it is something I think should be kept with for others years; as the Internet keeps on evolving so will the blogs.
