When most people think about media in The Bahamas I am certain the thought of radio and television comes to mind. However, I've got news for those people; Digital Media is on the rise.
Digital media refers to formats used to present information such as digital video, digital audio and other digital content. It provides a medium for information to be passed on which is more than a change, it is a blessing.
The way we communicate with each other has definitely changed over time and the mass media is changing with us. The way we pass on information has changed from the basic television watching and listening to the radio and now we are moving into another time; another phase. From emails, to blog spots, specialized websites, podcast and live streaming, our lives have been changed through this development.
Is The Bahamas left out? I think not. We are surely moving with this change and it isn't about to change any time soon. It is a well needed element in all of our lives to best suite the changing world we are living in today.
Digital Media is on the rise and it isn't going any where!
It is my wish that Bahamians embrace this change and do what it takes to educate themselves about Digital Media. The rest of the world is being changed by it and that would be the same for us so we need to better equip ourselves with the knowledge we will need to survive.
I do think though, that we have made some progress; especially persons of a younger generation. I truly believe that we are the ones that is going to change the way Bahamians live and how we communicate.
Doing this assignment was an interesting experience and I will do it again; except without all the hastle and bastle :).
I was dissappointed about not being able to add my podcast here but nonetheless it has been a fun, learning, exciting, rough ride.
Until next time: Stay smart, stay abreast, stay Digital!
