THE WORLD OF MULTIMEDIA

1. Where do you commonly use multimedia in your daily life, list as many examples as you can

I commonly use multimedia at school and at home. At school I use to internet mainly, but we are allowed to listen to our iPod's in IST and occasionly some other classes. At home I use the internet, iPod and phone. I use all these multimedia devices all the time at home, they are a way to entertain ourselves when we are bored.

2. What multimedia device or service would find it hardest to be without?

The device I would hardest to lvie without would be a phone (in general). Without a phone, it can effect our safety. This is because one of the reasons why I have a phone is because if I ever get into trouble or I'm lost and I don't know what to do, I can call my parents and they'll come and get me. And the same goes with a home phone. If I feel unsafe or some creepy person keeps coming around and asking to come in, I can call my parents to come home and then call the police. Without phones, we wouldn't be able to get out of trouble and our safety will be in danger.

3. Do you think the video on future directions (second video) will come true. Do you see advantages/disadvantages to the use of technology?
Yes I think the the video shows future directions which will come true. I have no doubt that they are already inventing things that will be similar to what was shown in the video. And advantage would be that it would help us to get more organized and a disadvantage would be that it might be to confusing to use and a lot of older people wouldnt be able to use it.
