A Screen Point of View

This article made several interesting points on the rapid uprising of screen usage today. Its a wave amongst that is only going to grow in popularity. I have opinions about the screen era being both used for good and bad reasons. I think screen have not only shrunk the world but it has given people a more tangible platform to share ideas good, bad, or ugly. While those who have hidden talents can now be exposed much easier the screen also allow those less enlightened or not as talented to be put on screen just as easy. Kelly believes that small sites such as Youtube, iMovie, and Flickr is where the action lies for the genesis of screen literacy.

Kelly sees that screen are being implemented at almost every angle of life which forces us to become screen literate. Screen manufacturing for TV's, cell phones, computers, tablets, remotes, and many other devices are now thriving unlike anytime before. Both book and movie production loses it's once renowned unique quality all due to the versatility to the screen.
