For my Comm 2400 class we were asked this question: "What is the one Web 2.0 characteristic, platform, or feature you would find hard to give up if you had to...and why?"
For those of you who don't know what web 2.0 is, it is the the second stage of development of the World Wide Web, characterized especially by the change from static web pages to dynamic or user-generated content and the growth of social media. In layman's terms it's is the "like, comment, share and subscribe," aspect of online material we have today. What would we do without the "like" button on facebook or the "heart" button on instagram?
If there was one platform or feature that would be hard for me to give up it would have to me YouTube. I love YouTube. I love that I can find any nostalgic video or movie from my childhood as well as fun tutorials and things that make me happy like Good Mythical Morning https://www.youtube.com/user/rhettandlink2 or SNL sketches that I missed last week. It would be hard for me to give YouTube up because it is such a source of laughter and happiness for me, as well as it's not something that I have posted on instagram or facebook and I am constantly watching the like button to see who has liked my photo or video, and hoping that one guy will like your stuff you have posted,(we have all been there). YouTube is a nice outlet for all of that, I just click on a video and I'm suddenly in a good mood.
Untill next time!!
