New media to me is the way of the world of which we live in. What I mean by that is the technology, networking, and the speed of which media or gadgets drives us as humans. Each day there is something worth noting. The pace of which information travels is far more advanced than how things were in the past. The capacity of which devices impact our lives in are our every day lives is enormous. Lastly, we as the consumers provide feedback to the direct new media that is presented to promote a product or company.

New Media is something we should all be excited for in the future. The possibilities are endless and exciting. New Media influences plenty of the aspects of our lives already, so things can only become more advanced than ever. "In the article, Dixon mentions that self driving cars, clean energy, VR / AR (virtual and augmented reality), drones, flying cars, better food, and more will be the next wave of technological advances." . Most of the things he mentioned are now happening today and are becoming more and more advanced daily. Think about the inventors whose legacies remain in the spotlight today because of the inventions and willingness to push the way of technology forward. The future is still bright and full of big expectations to see how new media is developed to top what is being done today. New media is bound to evolve over the periods of time and never remain restricted from growth.
