Saturday Morning Debate

What is the future of media? –

      More collaborative style – everything will all be together online

      Equipment will be smaller, touch screen

      We will rely on media more and more

      Changes in advertising – targeted advertising, when you log onto google it keeps every search you do and it adapts the adverts to what you search. 

      More big screens in places like train stations for news and adverts, may be multi media.

      “Smaller but bigger” – technology is getting smaller but the impact it has on our lives is better bigger. 

      Lot more information coming to us in the future, how do we know what is real and what is not?

      Big Brother society, CCTV everywhere

      Tags on  people

      Do everything via mobile

How will that affect information?

      Quicker

      Effective

      More balanced opinions

      A lot of inaccurate info more personal info about you

      Getting info faster, anywhere while multi tasking

      Lots more but is it all true?

      All in one place

How will that affect Relationships?

      Keeping in touch is easier

      Lot less personalised but you talk a lot more to people

      Online relationships

      Creates multiple personalities – more superficial
