cyberculture

My experience with cyberculture has been pretty moderate I think. I remember first starting to be interested in the computer when I first heard about AOL. I was excited to be able to communicate with kids from school who I didn't see outside of a classroom. It was a fun, new interesting way to be able to communicate with a different range of people. After instant messenger came myspace and facebook, and that lead to an even bigger social opening to many people. I currently have a myspace, and I do go on it occasionally, but I don't think that I go on it excessively like some people might. I like the aspect of it that you can get a chance to learn more about people by what they put into their profile, and to learn more about who they are and what they want you to know about them as a person. It in a way, takes you inside to that person and what type of personality they have, their interests, favorite music, movies, and t.v. shows.
Cyberculture has affected me positively. It is positive in the fact that I get to talk to people who I have not seen because they moved away, or we went on to different schools. It also gives me a chance to meet new people socially, and it gives everyone the ability to learn about one another.

popular culture

I think that pop culture has formed our society by who we hang out with and what we have in common with other people around us. We relate to other people through the mass media and how it affects us. What kind of music we listen to, and what clothes we wear somewhat defines us how we are perceived to strangers. I honestly think that pop. culture has over defined our generation today. I think that we focus excessively on what car someone drives, or what type of clothing they are wearing immediately tells us how that person is going to act. We depend too much on those little tidbits, instead of actually getting to know one another with out judging.
