Internet and Media

•         What is the primary source of news for you?

The primary source of news for me is the Online News. It is becausee my homepage of my explorer is the website of Yahoo Hong Kong. Then when I access to the Internet every day, I will firstly check the news shown in the website. And I make it a habit to be the way of aquiring the basic information such as what happened in Hong Kong. 

•         Do you think that ‘mass media’ will some day be totally replaced by digital media / internet?

Yes, I do think so. Nowadays, there are more and more people using mobile phone,laptop or other digital media to get the latest news everytime everywhere especially the youngsters and office workers. It is obvious that using the digital media and Internet is more convenient than mass media. As opposed to mass media, we not only don't need to buy any newspapers,television or radio,but also never spent time to wait for the broadcast because we can save the webpages on the Internet as the bookmark for viewing everytime and revision in the future.

 Also,using digital media is cost-less since most things shared on the Internet is free and there is no limits of units or time when we access to the Internet because of wifi available in many places and the monthly plan of the payment provided. Therefore,it is probable that as time goes on,mass media will be replaced by digital media when all people enjoy the convenience of using digital media or the new generation dominate society in the future.
