The following is a breakdown of my media and technology usage in an average school week. This evaluation required me to observe and record my reliance on technology and the heavy influence of the media in my personal and professional life.
READING
books: 5 hours
news: 3 hours (approx. 30 minutes daily)
magazines: 4 hours
LISTENING TO
net radio: 0 hours
traditional radio: 7 hours
iTunes: 25 hours
CD: 2 hours
WATCHING
television: 8 hours
movies: 4 hours
SENDING
text messages: 100+
e-mails: 7
calls: 3 hours
RECEIVING
text messages: 100+
e-mails: 6
INTERNET FOR
social media (msn, facebook): 15 hours
surfing: 12 hours
PLAYING
video games (system): 0 hours
online/computer games: 0 hours
Both technology and the media are very apparent in my everyday life, as the majority of the time analysed was spent using the computer and cellphone. I'm not surprised by my findings, as I love technology and know it's something I am accustomed to living with.
