Intro to brief, Ihi and Wihi.
Understand.

We were introduced to the brief and to the new words Ihi that was described as the power or authority of something and Wihi was the response that we had to that power and authority.

Based off knowledge of the words Ihi and Wihi, I went home and thought of possible ways that social media has a certain power and influence to cause people to become anti-social.  A massive thing that I found contributed to this was F.O.M.O (Fear Of Missing Out).  This is an massive epidemic taking place all over the world.  People want to keep with trends of social media that leads to an anti-social society because of programmes such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, etc.  It has become a huge part of our day to day lives, culture and the way that we treat each other.

I found it interesting that technology invented by man has allowed us to be drawn into this anti-social behaviour that has led to a decrease in productivity in businesses, lower grades increase in cyber bullying and developing narcissistic tendencies.

This clip is about how social media has got us hooked and how through huge usage has allowed us to become 'slaves/prisoners' to it.
