You may be familiar with YouTube or Veoh. Who isn’t? Apparently, if you want your 30 seconds shot to fame, upload your video clip in either or both of these websites. Give or take a few days, then you will start receiving good comments like nice cover of the song or not-so-good comments like you look like you smell. The thing is it is the easiest and fastest way to reach virtually everybody. Aspiring rock stars, or up and coming bands take advantage of these websites to make their music known to the world.
There are issues regarding web postings such as the copyright. Movies and TV shows, as well as songs can be downloaded from the World Wide Web for free. This leads to the classic good news, bad news situation. The good news is that people, judging from the downloads, like the product of the artists’ creativity and appreciate the movie or music. On the other hand, if the market is getting it for free, it means less dollars for the artists, their managers, the record label, and the production.
Another downside of web posting is that few websites are strict with the uploading process. In addition, almost anybody can go into the website. What does these mean? Violence, sex, and other for adults-only content can be viewed by teenagers or worse, ten year old children or even younger. That is why the youth today is considered out of hand by experts. You can hear a five year old kid saying b****, or f***. If that is not bad enough, they even know what those words mean. They know it is a word for sex and that sex cannot be such a bad thing since everybody seems to be doing it. Notice that pregnant teenagers are not much of a shock anymore. It’s like a normal thing which should not be the case.
On the other side of the coin, web posting also has its share of benefits. It raises social awareness. Gone are the days when you can say ignorance is bliss. Information is abundant through the internet. With few clicks, you can learn what’s happening in the other side of the world. How is the stock market doing? Why are post offices closing down? Who is leading in the US election? When is the war in Israel going to end? Knowing the facts can lead to movements. If a person is passionate enough with what’s taking place in the world today, he can take a stand and make his voice heard. Organizations are encouraging other people to join their cause. Through the web, PETA, WHO, and other similar groups are able to reach several countries to participate in their activities.
Aside from social awareness, inspiration can also be found in the web. Setting aside those videos or blogs with adult content, there are those posts that can change a person’s perspective on life. Touching stories about love and family can give hope to those who see themselves as failure in that specific aspect of their lives. A number of support groups gather through the Internet and it really makes a difference when somebody is supporting you to keep your unborn baby instead of having an abortion.
Technology, as a whole, is a good thing. Because of it, many doors are now opening to countless of possibilities. Information is very accessible. Communication is straightforward and nearly trouble-free. Imagine life without the comforts of the machines technology has given to us. People simply have to use with good intention.
