Alright, when it comes to me and my media usage, well, it is slim to almost nothing. Television, Internet and my cell phone is about as far as it goes. These seem like the typical sources of media usage these days, which is true, I just consume a much smaller amount than most.
When it comes to watching television I watch it for entertainment rather than gaining knowledge. I will watch approximately less than five hours of television a week with the rare occasion of watching a move.
As for the Internet, it is probably the greatest amount of media I consume. I am on Facebook but rarely and at short amounts of time. My Yahoo account is full of either spam or emails from family. I do do a lot of research such as finding information on Google or Ask.com but that is mostly the result of a school assignment.
Then there is my cell phone, the second greatest media usage in my life. Even with my cell phone though, a Pantech, all I do is call and text others.
I have knowledge of the basics and details of new media and know how majority of it all works, however, I tend to not make New Media a major part of my every day life.
I'm kind of with you there. Maybe we get we get it from our cellphone/tv/computer-less grandma. (And even my mom only has a TV...)
