In this age of digital media creativity, influence, ownership and art within the digital age is something that is necessary. One must be creative in every aspect. We have developed new ways of having conversations with others from all around the globe via webcam and applications such as Skype and Oovoo. We've developed new ways of conversing via I.M. and social networks such as Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter. All of these aspects of new age media can have a huge impact on those around us. We now as a culture stray from that of our tradition and into that of the "new age". Rather than speaking, people would much rather text message one another and rather than taking pictures for sentimental reasoning and having a "kodac moment" people upload pictures via Facebook to be hopefully tagged in. It's quite sad what our generation has come to and how much of an impact digital media affects us and those around us. We rely mostly on machinery and electronic standards rather than the traditional way of doing things ourselves. We've even become so lazy to the point where we no longer have the patience to press a simple button which is why the invention of the iPhone, iPad and other touch screen comrades have come into play. We as artist can use all of these sources to our advantage and help further our prosperity as a whole. Using networks such as Youtube to broadcast our works and talents can be very beneficial and can also be a great for us.
