This is the end

First I would like to start by saying that I am so sad the class is over. I have learned so much about media and the way it affects people in every aspect. Thanks Linda for making the class enjoyable and entertaining.

I never really thought about how much and for what reasons I use my cell phone and the internet. It was facinating having to sit down and think about my identity and the communities that I belonged to because of these different types of technologies. I have learned that I am very dependent on my cell phone. I also noticed that there are certain reasons why I make my online profiles the way I do.

I think that second life was an awesome expierence as well. I was really nervous about it at first because I had hear how wierd it was. I thought it was absolutely crazy that there were thousands of people online from different places around the world talking to eachother face to face....through our avatars. This section of the class was probably most interesting to me because it was so foriegn and more like an out of body expierence sometimes. I think that along with the girls in the class, and Linda I will also miss Greta from time to time.

Thanks again for a great class.

Love you all!
