My Media World

Task: Answer the question: What media do I use? How does it affect me and the world I live in?



I have a mobile phone Blackberry Curve. I mostly use my phone for communicating with my friends and family. Through my mobile I am able to contact and keep in touch with my friends through phone calls, texts and bbm (BlackBerry messenger-a free messaging service to blackberry users).
If I upgraded, I would choose an Iphone4 as this phone allows me to use many useful applications that I cannot get on a blackberry including games, travel etc. I would be able to use these games and apps to keep me entertained and useful for when I need to find out information quickly. The Iphone also has a better quality camera than the Blackberry.

      To keep in touch with my friends, I use my mobile phone and social networking sites such as Facebook. Through facebook I am able to view photots of my friends, chat,                     view friends posts and keep up to date. 


If   

     If I want to see a film:
  •       I tend to go to a cinema 
  • Rent a film from services such as Blockbuster or Lovefilm.

I tend to like to watch action and horror genre films.


I keep up with films by:
  • Watching trailers online
  • By watching television adverts.

I tend to book cinema tickets online as this will save me time and often guarantee me a seat  for the film I want to see in advance.




            Music is important in my life.
H   How do I listen to my music:
  •      With an ipod
  •      my laptop,
  •      radio 
  •      television music channel.

      I pay for music using iTunes. I like playing video games for entertainment. I can also socialise with friends through online gaming such as Xbox live.  I use the internet for 3 hours on weekdays and 2 hours at the weekend, I use internet to socialise on facebook, listen to music and often to help me with my homework.

In the future, what I think would be useful technology is a robot that can take care of household choirs.
