Have you ever thought how important for an individual has become the Internet in everyday lifestyle? Being online means being available, checking email and social media pages are transformed to a routine for an any modern individual. Nowadays, our life rounded of technological gadgets and artificial intelligence that help us to get an information from the Web sources by clicking and typing, or even by using voice commands. The era of screens and modern technologies have become an internal part of the progress as a whole, and nobody is surprised anymore that gadgets make our life more enjoyable and convenient. But by using all of those innovation, don’t we forget of something important in the world around us? Where exactly we left our reality..what is the most important, our personality, or the personality we are design everyday online? Taylor Lorenz argues in the article “Teens Are Debating the News on Instagram” that Millennials are using social media not for expressing themselves in the Web, but as a news portal. They discuss and comment all of the “hot” news and events (by tweeting, posting memes and Gifs). May we accept it as a credible source? I don’t think so, but modern people could connect with each other in groups, and compare their opinions on something important happened. Same thing is going on with Wikipedia at the moment, the site is transferring from informational to news source. People discuss modern groups, events, and exhibitions. Although for the years Wikipedia was a public project, free encyclopedia and informational resource. As we can assume after watching “Black Mirror” season 3 episode 1, social media could become something more important for the people’s life. It is interesting, how rating on the Web can affect our life and people’s behavior around us. Would it be like it shown in the movie? It seems to be very scary, when Lacie arriving at the wedding, and she is no longer part of 4.5 group of people, her rating is down, and everyone look at her as at looser and potential dangers. The last scene is leaving an uneven impression, because at the first moment in her life, Lacie started to SEE world around her. The sudden part that she was suppose to get into jail, to become actually freedom.
