This video on YouTube shows the benefits of media in terms of social interaction. Media is a form of communication. Everyone can agree to that. What people also need to understand is that that communication allows growth in general. Media plays a big role when it comes to social interaction. Through lecturing, talking, publishing, posting, pictures and texting, people are communicating in ways that weren't even imagined a decade ago. The Internet has upped older versions of media by creating a two way communication. Through this communication, improvements are made, and by this organization have evidently developed. The example the video provides is the expansion of ice-cream, in reference to the ideas that grow through the media. The ice-cream started off as a small concept, but with the idea being so interesting it grew local. Then as people come to the local area they are exposed and then intrigued by the idea. Then by starting off with small ideas as having a place for suggestions, comments and ratings. More people were aware because thorough organization and awareness, ice-cream was developed and expanded. Again media is linked to this clip by comparing the rate of growth of ideas with the expansion of types of media. Opportunities of vast communication, perspective and influence had opened up due to the media.
So in conclusion media has provided choices to people worldwide.
