Week 2 - Social Media

'I can't live without the internet' that is just an understatement to how much I rely on it to get my life going. I check my mails daily and watch videos from Youtube and Veoh. I need the internet to do research for my projects ranging from articles to pictures to videos. And i get my daily dose of news from the internet too. it has replaced my traditional ways of reading from a book, newspapers or watching from television. And sometime i find it too tedious to go to every single website to check if they have updated any articles, so i use RSS ( Rich Site Summary ) to list down the latest updates without me going through every one of them.

I'm still pretty new to Podcast and the first time i heard it was from the Mr. Brown Show. It was the Prime Minister's speech and he turned it to a different phrase, 'Mai Hum'. haa haa... actually i find it troublesome to listen to Podcast. why do i have to go all the way to download their conversation just to listen to their views when i can hear these from the radio or from the news? Now i only listen to podcast once in a while for movie reviews like flimjunk and that's about it. ____________________________________________________________________
