This page in “The Medium is the Massage” really caught my eye after the class discussion we had about KONY 2012. Social Media ranging from online websites to television news channels have made it possible for people to know about every current event going on all around the world and it is making it hard for people to stay interested in one thing. Like when we are in a typical grocery store we sometimes are stuck in there for quite a while because although we go in with a list of items we are given many options but when you are in a wholesale store like COSTCO your options are limited but you find what you want and you buy it. With so many options in current events, we now rarely fully engage in specific current events and try to know little about everything that is going on. Not everyone in the class knew all of the specifics about KONY 2012 but almost everyone knew it existed with all the Facebook posts about it.
