Of all the scholars we had to choose from, I found Sonia M. Livingstone to be the most interesting! She studied and received a degree in Psychology within the field of Communications. I thought that this was interesting because I am a Mass Media major and she works a lot with kids. I'm glad that she takes pride in teaching about Internet safety and the dangers of the online world. Kids are now exposed to a lot more stuff than when I was a kid ten years ago. She also is an advocate of directing younger people to healthier food choices. I can tell that she cares a lot about future generations and the greater being of our world.
Rumor is there's an iPad coming to Verizon? Welp I guess AT&T's monogamous relationship with Apple's iPad has officially ended. Sources say that a wi-fi version of the iPad will lauch October 28th ranging between $630-$830. I personally think that it's a waste of money because there are many compact laptops that have the same features at a much cheaper price. I think apple is getting redundant as well. The ipod touch looks just like the iphone, and now the ipad just looks like a bigger version of both. Who really needs a touch screen anyway? I guess when it comes down to it, the tech savvy people will want it just because it's a new thing on the market.
