» pink101 - How The Media Works

.
We're using a media about which we have little foreknowledge. It's called the New Media by some of its students. And, others just call it cyber space. Either title, same thing.
.
New and different.
.
When people who really do not "know" each other gather on common ground, there is a tendancy to associate with certain others. In the beginning, there may be a little fencing that goes on to help persons identify with others who are like minded. It might be a little like people gathered on the platform in a subway station or--maybe more like being in the concourse of an international airport--have you ever done that?
.
Sometimes, people make investments in such gatherings as though their personal identity were involved.
.
Persons gather here for various reasons.
.
One of the reasons I come here is to learn how the media works. Another is to bounce my ideas off others to see what kind of feedback I get. It seems like a reciprocal situation to me. You might come here for similar reasons--maybe not.
.
Some people think, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."
.
Do you have any thoughts you might care to share?
