The beginning of an adventure

So I have always been a phantom on social media, I enjoy using it but not necessarily posting on it. However that all changed when I had to take a Communications class that made me look at New Media and its role in todays society. In fact one of the projects in this class is to actually use a new media platform to talk about new media. So that is what I am going to do, I need enough content for what should have been a research paper aka 30% of my grade. So I decided to talk about technological determinism and social shaping in new media and how they are different, how they are the same and even what they are so than more people can understand the terminology of this sort of blog. 

But because this is basically my first time using social media, you will have to bear with me. Anyway I hope you enjoy these next few posts and I hope you learn something along the way.
