I was reading the newspaper this morning and low and behold, I found an article relevant to this week's lesson: Social media boosts power of TV:
Boob-tube is benefitting from the digital realm as viewers go online with their thoughts
http://www.canada.com/entertainment/movie-guide/Social+media+boosts+power/2693274/story.html
The article refers to social media as the "new hive" where people gather and contribute their thoughts...in this case, sharing thoughts about what they watch on t.v. The writer suggests that the old "water cooler", has been replaced by Twitter,blogs and Facebook. Yes, I would agree, and think that since the internet has such a large "reach", the participation level within these forums could be huge!
