For instance, the role of a public figure that supports what they believe to be a honourable ideology, what was once a primarily television based role, has now become dominated by personality from social media platforms. These individuals used to be limited by their success through traditional media sources, providing a gate keeping sort of effect (Singer, 2013).

Mat Honan previously a senior staff writer with Wired an American magazine, published in both print and online editions in 2014, would report emerging technologies that affect culture, the economy, and politics. He wrote an article called “I liked everything I saw on Facebook for Two Days, Here’s What It Did to Me.” Honan wanted to see what would happen to Facebook if he liked everything even if he hated it. This was a test to see if there are negative effects of liking everything on social media. He also claimed liking is a way for businesses and ego-feeders to be successful. They can track their campaigns on Facebook by how many times it is liked. The more likes they receive the more successful they will be. Analyzing his article his purpose was to convince his readers Facebook has become about brands and messaging, rather than human interaction and Facebook’s robots decide what you can see in your feed. He uses personal stories and experiences to make Facebook users and the Facebook PR department believe his credibility. These appeals to ethos, combined with his humorous tone creates an effective argument that Facebook 's liking has become a serious problem

Now that we are in the second decade of the 21st Century, it appears more and more evident that the so-called "Digital Revolution" is in a second phase.

The second phase of the revolution occurred a few years after the turn of the new century, when applications such as instant messaging, Friendster, and MySpace became more and more popular, particularly among the youngest computer users. Today, computers are used even more widely for basic interpersonal communications, often replacing even the ubiquitous cell phone.

In some ways, these new modes of communication represent responses to needs; in other ways, the media through which people choose to communicate are actually changing the nature of interpersonal and professional communications.
