Lessig

This article had a lot of points and interesting aspects that I had never thought about. I was interested in the Kodak camera talk. Who would have known that such a simple thing that someone invented could someday be so popular. We all take pictures of our selves and our friends and put them on facebook, using a kodak camera. Images play a lot in what we think. I personally get magazines just to look at the pictures not to read the articles. Pictures say just as much as words. We can write with visuals such as in People magazine and we see a picture of Brad and Angelina and they have another baby in their hands, we automatically know that they must have adopted another child. We dont need to read the whole article because pictures talk louder than words alot of the time.
Talking about the 9/11 blog was a good idea. Blogging is very new to me but I know that it is a way to get our feelings out to others. We can turn to blogs to let our emotions out. because most likley other people are having the same emotions. Also, pictures were important to us who weren't in New York. We heard about all the devistating news and wanted to know what was going on. Watching the media and news was a way for us to stay connected to all the horrific things happening in New York. We turned to the internet to watch youtube videos of what was happening because no matter where you are the media and internet will have pictures of what is going on around the world.
