This class was very interesting, in part, because I am not very into all the technology and because this was not for my major. I admit I did not think there was so much to communication, but I find myself enlightened with all this new knowledge. Through the semester we read many articles of research done on internet and communication. I use the internet, but I never realize all the things that go on, even when I see them. I guess when you are open to them you notice them more. You can point out things that you maybe passed over in other occasions.

I think my favorite part of this class is researching first hand by analyzing other peoples profiles. Once you know what you are looking for and you examine it, it makes more sense. When had to examine the blog and the myspace profile. People put so much information out there that many people can see an judge you off. You have to be careful because anything that you share online could come back and haunt you.

What I took from this class is that technology as a whole is not all bad. There is a good side and a bad side to everything. Balance is key! We have to remember to keep a balance with our offline relationships and our online. If we have one we cant neglect the other. Also, occasional brakes from technology are very refreshing. We have revolutionized communication. There are new languages and new forms of communicating. People are still communicating, they are not isolating themselves, they are just changing the location and form of communication.
