Wiki So Far

So far on the Wiki, I have been doing my own research before creating/ editing the pages. I've been doing research on New Media on Transportation and how it has changed the way people travel around the world. Just from visiting another state for the weekend, these services became much more effective and efficient than regular taxi cabs. Social media has had its influence on the methods of transportations by allowing users to pay online instead of scrambling for cash, having a concrete solid path to the destination without much error, being able to share with other people and cutting costs by half, and by being able to know who your driver was in case of anything that went wrong, it is an easier way of reporting them. Another page that I have been doing research on is Advertising through Social Media. Celebrities generate most of their income simply by taking photos with products advertising them to their users. For an example, Kim Kardashian can take a photo with vitamins telling her followers that these vitamins have aided her hair growth and made it become stronger. Thus, the company have a target set audience and both parties can benefit from the ease of free social media advertising. Another page has been the Fashion and Social Media page, in which clothing brands such as H&M and Forever21 can create accounts using social media networking sites to share their products with society whether it be on a model or on a celebrity. These networking platforms can really benefit companies in the ease of appearing constantly on the audience's phones. Along with users who truly want to buy from these companies can follow their social media accounts. Thus, these companies can benefit from the target audience. Lastly, the influence of new media on love, in which multiple sites have been created to help users find people that are very compatible.
