Media is being used every day by people of all ages now a days. We use cell phones, iPod’s, computers and radios on a daily basis and various people believe that their lives depend on these types of technology.
When we looked at the statistics of young adults using media devises, I was impressed by the numbers shown. The average number of hours teenagers spend a day playing video games in the USA is about 20 to 30 minutes a day. I use to believe that young adults spend between 1 to 2 hours a day. Another statistic that surprised me, was how a lot of people still rely on the radio, well I though most people had replaced the radio with iPod’s and CD’s.
One thing however that I did have in common with most teenagers shown on the chart with comments, was how I’ve had a Facebook account since I was about 14 or how I mostly turn the TV on before going to sleep. The majority of teenagers and young adults also have inherit the habit of finding all their answers trough Google, I have that habit as well and it’s impressive how much we rely on the Internet now a days.
Two aspects that I would use if I could make a survey on teenagers are on; what do kids from grade 5 to 7 grade mainly use their cell phones for and how many people believe that there should be a certain age for teenagers and kids to have a cell phone, Facebook or e-mail account.
