The new media taking part of our live
The new media takes a huge part in our daily lives and we spend a lot of time using it, and in this time it is impossible to discard it. And it makes our lives easier than in the past, and it has a lot of negative things and all of these problems are not coming from the media but we don’t know how to use it in the right way.
Cell phone problem is economic, it takes a lot of money because you must pay for your account every month if you use it or if you don’t use it, and even small children have cell phones, and that’s making trouble for their parents. It affect your health, if you use a cell phone a lot of time you will have cancer in your brain, For example, a researcher in a Swedish university found that the signal that cell phones give is one of the most common reasons for brain cancer. A researcher who studied wasting time found that people spend more than two hours a day talking on cell phones; for example, international students talk to their family and friends every day. Cell phone is noisy because it rings when you are in class or sleeping or studying and when you are in an important meeting; for example, international student families call them at bad times because of the difference in time zones.
There is a time problem; some people spend a lot of time on the internet, For example, for some people the internet becomes the most important thing in their life; they spend more than eight hours a day, and some people have an addiction to the internet, on the chatting, or on the sex web site or on games on line. The internet is not safe; for example, people may steal your hotmail account, and if you want to buy something from the internet, they will get your card number and they will steal all the money in your account and if you have private information they can take it from your computer and sometimes if somebody sends a virus to you it will damage your computer. The things that we don’t want our children to see, for example sex website and violence, have a negative effect on children's behavior. Every family must have a filter on the computer.
Video games give three problems; video games appear to be violent. For example, a boy in Alabama was playing a famous game which has a lot of violence. The game's name is Grand Theft Auto, and it affected his behavior, and he became a murderer and he killed three men, two of them police officers, because he did in the street what he saw in the game. Some people play games for a lot of time and they are wasting their time; for example, the new generation of children. They have health problems; when people sit and play video games they're not moving, and it will affect their eyes, and they eat and play and will become fat.
In conclusion, the new media leads the people to development, and it opens our minds to things that we never imagined. And it makes the world like a small city. As a result we found that media have a lot of bad effects, especially on small children, and it has a lot of good things, depending on the person who is using it.
