Media:

“Social networks represent the digital reflection of what humans do: we connect and share.”

— Jeremiah Owyang.

My perception of media before is that media is a medium of communication for humans, that can be written in paper, type in any electronic device, and heard in any electronic device. My view of media is still the same.

            For me the most relevant function of media is socialization. Because after all, media is a medium of communication. Socialization and communication have the same function but differ in spelling and pronunciation.

            I can recall a situation wherein media and information literacy could have been useful. When I was using Facebook, I seen a lot of news pages like Daily Mail, CNN, ABS-CBN, ABC News, BBC News, TV Patrol, and Fox News. It was useful for me because I got information regarding of the events that happened around the world.
