McLuhan Assignment

A BlackBerry is a new innovative medium that shows interactivity. It combines a phone with many different components. One component is the internet and with having the internet on your phone, it combines your cell phone to social networking sites. As well as having the internet on your phone, BlackBerry’s even have their own form of communication, the BlackBerry Messenger, or “BBM” for short. This one device can make calls, send text messages, receive and send emails, allows you to easily access websites and then send instant messages to other BlackBerry users, not to mention all the other miscellaneous features. 









Facebook has recently had a communication breakthrough. Besides being able to just write and post comments, videos and pictures on other peoples Facebook’s,  you can now Facebook chat with your friends through Facebook’s instant messaging system. 





The iPad is a major new invention that connects almost every medium together. On an iPad you can go online, talk to friends, play games, listen to music, and even download and read a book.
