Question of the Week for Sept. 12

The Online Publishers Association's study that describes how my demographic uses their media outlets holds very true to me. I am always signing online to find things out. I use the interent to search the weather, to read news, among other things. The interent is also becoming so advanced that you are now able to watch some shows on the internet. But I also read a lot of magazines, but not the informational kind of course. Well the ones with the hard-hitting news stories, I read Cosmo and things like that. Most of the time though it is because I am bored at work that I read a magazine, or I am traveling. Like most things that go down hill, I do believe that once all the older generations have passed away, that the newspaper will be no more. Or it will surely not hold the same role that it does today. I feel that many people still do read the newspaper now a days, but once those people are gone, whose left? The internet generation, thats who.

Question of the Week 1

All of my experiences with writing for the web have been positive ones. As a consumer of writing on the web, I think that it is very useful. But you have to remember that anyone can write for the web so you have to make sure that if you are using information from the web, you have to make sure that you have a creditable source. As a producer for the web you have to watch how you write certain things. You have to make sure you use the correct spelling for certain words and not use shorthand for them. In the future, I believe that writing for the web will become easier. I think it will be based on experience, once you learn the ropes of writing for the web, such as the necessary format and way you need to word things, then it will become easier to do.
