The internet has become a place where we as humans can post anything we want. There are huge barriers stopping anyone from doing what people want to do on the internet. You as a person can decide in what direction you want your content to go in weather positive or negative. This can effect more than just how the world looks at you, it can also effect how the world looks at the people look around you. Sense the internet became a huge thing that almost everyone uses everyday it has allowed people to connect in ways that we couldn’t image not being connected to now. This can now effect your job prospects, who you become friends with, or who you can date.

Digital Nation talked about how we as humans are now connected to our screens and how this affects our lives on a scale never thought of. The movie discussed how we are never on the same kind of plane of existence when we are on our technology device. We are now in a age of multi tasking everything that we do and never fully putting our time into the work we do now.

We are a society now that depends on short and quick information. We want to get as much information as quickly as we can so we are not wasting our own time. This can even be more seen on sites such as YouTube that have prioritized shorter films so people can get their fill rather than long informative videos that allow you deep dives into the information of the video. I have see how this has effected my own life from me being succumb to this as well preferring short videos more often than longer ones so I can watch even more. I believe this trend needs to end so people can get more time into what they care about rather small bits of information that they can get. This is something we need to work on as a society as we become ever more ingrained into our phones and other technology devices.
