Through the forum on social impact of new media i have made this conclusion:

i also think that technology has made a significant impact on us. In the pass, we use to get newspaper sent to our houses in the morning, it is still this way for us but there is a few alternative, the internet and the hand phone. Go to any news site like Channel News Asian and you can get news instantly for free. Also, some hand phone users subscribe to Reuters so we can get breaking news straight away every day.
i think social networking is a great way to meet friends. networks such as twitter and facebook are the common ones. at first, i did not know my friend's brothers or sisters, but through social networking, i knew them. also in primary school, i did not know much people from other classes except for my basketball friends. but when i joined some social networks, i made friends with my school mates.

And through the forum about copyright, i made this conclusion:
indeed this is wrong. through this, i learned that we should only copy things for personal use and should always seek the acknowledge of the copyright holder. if not, the copyright owner has the right to sue you and thus we will regret. we should always think before copy or downloading any file from now on.

this is all i have to post.
