A Research Study On The Internet

Most of us assume emerging economic, political and climate changes will be remodeled by the emerging technology we have today. We are sure YouTube, streaming, and video on-demand will be the wave of the future and change our lives for the better; giving us more money, free time, and control of our lives. Our well-oiled lives in the Tech Age are incompatible with our grandfather's blue collar days scratching out a living turning wrenches at the local garage. We’re at the top of our technological game.

MTV, formally known as Music Television, is one of the most viewed networks on television today. Roughly thirty-three years old, it has changed the American culture drastically in more than just one way. Specifically targeting teens and young adults, the MTV network provides all of the most up to date gossip on celebrities, highlights the latest fashion trends, promotes versified lifestyles, and defines the music industry of our generation. However, this so-called “idolized network” has not always been this way. The American culture has been affected by MTV through the creation of the network, the transformation from simply just music television to inappropriate reality shows, and the promotion of inappropriate content.

One example why today’s youth is being hooked on media is the TV channel, Adult Swim, which is the nightly block for the channel that most kids watch during the day, Cartoon Network. I can say, from personal experience, that Adult Swim is the first broadcaster to truly embrace the digital platform of the internet. When we look back on some of our most cherished forms of media content from our childhood, we don't just think about the music or the laughs or the rest of the emotions that they evoked. We cherish these films, TV shows, and bands because of their ability to capture the spirit of our youth. Not everyone looks back on The Beatles and wonders what the 60’s were like or you don’t look over The Breakfast Club without constantly thinking

It is easy to get lost in the sea of information that is ever present today. Giving tips on what is safe and acceptable on the internet is very important to a growing child when they are using more technology at younger ages than ever before. In a followup interview with Dr. Owens, he says that “media today takes many forms and not all of them are reliable or even safe for all eyes. Even some adults could benefit from media literacy training and the idea of this course being taught at a young age means that those children will grow up to have more skills and knowledge than the generation at came before” (Owens). Media literacy training is not a new idea. When radio and television were the dominant forms of media, there were courses to help the average person understand the ins and outs of these forms of media. Today, there needs to be an appropriately developed course for digital media because it is equally if not more complex as the generations of media that came before it. The best way to advance media in the United States is to begin media literacy training at a young age. By the time these children have grown and are ready to enter the adult world, they will be qualified to work in our increasingly digital world with

Music has always acted as an effective vehicle to enhance people’s lives and connect people together. Ever since the advent of the Internet, news and pop culture has been able to easily reach millions of people not only in the United States, but across the world. Music has become an even more effective medium over the past decade through the use of websites and programs that allow people to listen to music and view media online. To this day, music represents one of the major avenues of pop culture and media that people consume on the Internet daily. Social media websites like Facebook and YouTube have over a billion users (Protalinski; “Statistics”). Media that gets posted to websites like these have the potential to be viewed by some of the largest and varied audiences in the world. Artists have the ability to release music videos and promotional material online, which contributes significantly to the amount of units they sell. In 2015, many artists were able to sell millions of units and

The first step was the online research in order to gain an overview of the subjects in question. The bibliographies of the online articles and research papers laid the foundations for further literature research and the selection of suitable works. Next, the information was collected from libraries in and outside of Cambodia as well as from online data bases of the BTU Cottbus and Cloud Deakin. Finally, this information was analysed and compiled.

“Over the past few years I’ve had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory. My mind isn’t going—so far as I can tell—but it’s changing. I’m not thinking the way I used to think.” These daunting words were echoed by Nicholas Carr, author of the non-fiction , “The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains.” His work has received both acclimation and criticism for exploring the extent of the internet’s influence on cognition. While Carr argues that the internet is indeed responsible for rewiring our brain leading to negative implications, others believe that the internet can be tailored to generate long-term benefits, and some believe that it there isn’t enough experimental evidence to support either side.

Music videos are easily accessible to everyone, especially adolescents. From its earliest origins on TV to recent upgrades to technology on the internet, such as YouTube, anyone can watch music videos at any time of the day. Online music video sites draw an average of 150 million people each month who view more than two billion videos per day (Mischner, Schie, Wigboldus, Baaren, & Engels, 2013). Sexually objectifying music videos have increased in the last couple of decades. With this, more adolescents are being influenced by viewing these videos and mostly all of them are affected in some way, either positive or negative. What a lot of people do not know is what is happening to adolescents after viewing these types of music videos and how it can lead to concerning effects later in development.

Perhaps one of the greatest inventions of out time is the Internet. Without a doubt, the net has had a profound effect on almost every aspect of our lives. The formation of the Internet has changed the way we do business, communicate, entertain, retrieve information, and even educate ourselves. Nevertheless, the Internet might have never materialized if it had not been for some innovated thinkers from the Advanced Research Project Agency, who created "ARPANET." In collaboration with several educational and research institutions, the agency created the packet-switching technologies that form the basis of the Internet today.

Many established YouTube users are now reaching a wider audience than any of the main stream media outlets could ever wish to achieve, for example “user Phil DeFranco, whose channel on YouTube, as pointed out by a recent article in Fast Company, has beaten 'Larry King Live' and 'The O'Reilly Factor' in daily audience” (Yen, 2010). As a means of communicating, YouTube has developed in to a form of interaction between individuals and communities much the same as blogging with the use of video logging, known as ‘vlogs’ by which users post short video messages that highlight an activity from their day or an incident of interest to be shared with others who share similar interests. The uploading of personal videos that promote ones self, interest or talent has increased in use to the extent that many of our modern celebrities have attributed their rise to stardom from using the YouTube platform, Justin Bieber and Greyson Chance just to name two (Elliot, 2011).

The utmost, overriding facet of our society has been placed in our hands, perched on a stand, and then plugged into a socket: modern technology. Today, individuals without up to date technology are christened anomalies that are late to the ‘smart era’ of smartphones, smartwatches, and smart televisions. In Is Google Making Us Stupid? by Nicholas Carr, and Be a Gamer, Save the World by Jane McGonigal, it is made comprehensible that, as a society, we have begun to intertwine ourselves in the tangles of our electronics, which we cannot seem to relinquish. Our generation has been advancing with technology nonstop to the point where a new gadget is practically released daily. Recently, the latest technological fixation that has rapidly spread like wildfire is video streaming: whether it be video-on-demand or live, it has concurrently seized and fashioned jobs, as well as intermixed communities and individuals alike.

The worth of media is a very controversial topic. Media has given us the ability to do things in new and creative ways such as how we learn and accomplish our everyday tasks. However, we do not always know how to interpurate this information. The technology available today is constantly impacting and influencing society in tremendous ways. Many of the impacts that are accocated with media are addressed in negative ways, but can be seen from a positive perspective as well. In the current generation, media and its influences can be found everywhere. These influences widely impact today’s adolescents and maturing teenagers because they are still developing into adults. Medias purpose is not only to inform us, but to allow us to mold ourselves in how we want to be perceived online. Also, it allows us easy access to unbelievable amounts of information. Living in an era known as the “information age” is riveting, but what are we suppose to do with all of this new technology and information?

Many businesses are currently using various online platforms to promote and marketing their products. With the advancement of technology and increased access of the internet by people, the business have taken the opportunity to reach their potential customers through the internet. There are various advantages that accrue to a business entity that uses internet as a marketing tool. The internet marketing has tremendously increased and the businesses that have not embraced internet marketing are missing out on great opportunity (Schibrowsky, Peltier & Nill, 2007). The importance of using internet as a marketing tool is as explained below;

The very fundamental purpose of Internet is to provide an open information framework with few access barriers to information. There are several potential risks associated with the implementation of Internet in the organization. So managers should pay attention to it and avoid it.
