One thing that surprised me, when reading the article was that,âMore people use Wikipedia than Amazon or eBay.â But why is that? Well since, nowadays many people do research work the first thing that pops in a search tool is Wikipedia. But, yet since the information issomewhat not reliable we know that we must not rely on it. There are people, whose source will be Wikipedia because they so do believe that it is very useful information at first glance but the thing they donât know is that it can be changed somehow. Well, since everything is changing in media we will realize that sooner or later we will have to deal with better and improved technology because we cannot always rely on the first things that was invented. Even networking changes because it improves the way people connect to each other and no longer be strangers but friendsâ through the social networking. Social Media can be seen more clear now because of it improvements and new techniques to provide needs for people.
