Module 8- Content Consumption

How has your consumption of content changed over the past 5 years?

I don’t find it different from anybody else but I think now I only look for specifics on any information I need.  How I spend most of my time on the internet as oppose to over 5 years ago I used to look through encyclopedias. In my house we have a whole book case full of encyclopedia. I used to love looking through those for any kind of content of information. Now I feel they are just out dated. I feel that internet gives you more relevant and up to date content I like to get straight to the point and find exactly what I am looking for.

    Do you still read paper books, magazines or newspapers? If so, which and why?  If not, why not?

I still look through certain types of magazine like I have a credit account with Macy’s so they are always sending me catalog magazines with men’s clothing and cologne etc. That is the only reason why I look through Macy’s magazines is because of my credit account. I also look through a variety of celebrity or music magazines because the thing they put in those magazines sometimes you can’t find online and plus it’s my way of entertaining myself. The only time I would rather read a paperback book then a book that’s on a kindle because I like things to be printed out just in case I have to highlight or make any kind of markings. 

    When you read online content, is it on a laptop, tablet or on your phone?  Why?

When I read online content it is on my iPhone or laptop, but more so my iPhone. I do this because both devices are reliable to me. My phone load time/buffer time is efficient, It has good quality, and I can use it anywhere. My phone just comes in handy because technology is always improving and they make so many useful apps.
