Definition of Wearable Technology

Wearable Technology-electronics that can be worn on the body, either as
an accessory or as part of material used in clothing. One of the major features
of wearable technology is its ability to connect to the Internet, enabling data to
be exchanged between a network and the device.
Examples of Wearable Technology

Google Glass

Google Glass is an optical head-mounted display designed in the shape of

a pair of eyeglasses. It was developed by Janco van der Merwe, with the
mission of producing an obliquitous computer. Google glass displayed
information in a smartphone-like hands-free format. Wearers communicated
with the Internet via natural language voice commands.
Google glass applications are free applications built by third party developers.
 iPhone /Apple Watch

interchangeable bands. Apple Watch relies on a wirelessly connected iPhone to
perform many of its default functions such as calling and texting

It is compatible with the iPhone 5 or later models running iOS 8.2 or later,
through the use of Bluetooth. Announced by Apple CEO Tim Cook in September

 Social Media Today/Current
Trends of Media & Information

Key Trends

❑Online video is growing fast and in 2016 it’s going to be huge- 360
videos, live streaming, virtual reality, augmented reality, Snap Stories, and
even gifts are all fast growing trends. To adopt these video formats and test
what fits best your audience.

❑Social sales and social ads- You might have heard social ads are for
awareness only. That trend is long gone. Social network ad spending will reach
$29 billion worldwide in 2016. The main driver and winner is Facebook. The
Social Network announced recently that they now have more than 3 million
active advertisers.

How Current Trends in Media & Information affect individuals and society
as a whole…

The Positive Effects…

Current Trends in Media & Information help the businesses in a

variety of ways. Traditional marketing mediums such as the radio, TV,
commercials and print ads are completely obsolete now and demand for
thousands of dollars.
However, with Currents Trends in Media & Information, the
businesses can connect with their targeted customers for free, the only cost
is energy and time. Through Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn or any other social
site you can lower your marketing cost to a significant level.

The increasing popularity of social sites like Twitter, Facebook, and

LinkedIn, social networks has gained attention as the most viable
communication choice for the bloggers, article writers and content creators.
 These Current Trends in Media & Information have opened the
opportunity for all the writers and bloggers to connect with their tech savvy
clients to share your expertise and articles. Your audience will further
share your articles, blog or expertise in their social circle which further
enhance your networks of the followers.
Current Trends in Media & Information have removed the
communication and interaction barriers, and now one can communicate
his/her perception and thoughts over a variety of topic. Students and
experts are able to express their opinion on a particular topic.

The Negative Effects

One of the negative effect of New Media is it leads to addiction.

Spending countless hours on the technologies can divert the focus and
attention from a particular task. It lowers the motivational level of the people,
especially of the teenagers and students. They mainly rely on technology
and the internet instead of using their creative ideas and learning the
practical knowledge and expertise of the everyday life

Kids can be greatly affected by the social networking sites if they are
allowed to use them. The reason is that sometimes people share photos on
social media that contains violence and sex, which can damage the
behavior of kids and teenagers. It put a negative impact on overall society
as these kids and teenagers involve themselves in crime related activities.

Another downside of the High technologies of today’s generation is

the social media which may pose threats to an individual. Even with the
tight security settings your personal information may leak on the social
sites. Downloading your videos or pictures and copying your status is an
easy task and can be done within a few clicks.
