Not only this websites but everything from as mentioned in class the printer screens all the way to the phones, laptops, and televisions we all commonly use.
Then Jillian contributing with notes about:
- Instant Global Communication: With a single click, people can connect across the world through messaging apps, video calls, or social media, breaking barriers of time and distance instantly.
- Immersive Experiences: Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) allow users to experience environments or events as if they were physically present, such as virtual tours of historical sites or immersive gaming.
- Data-Driven Personalization: Algorithms on platforms like streaming services or e-commerce sites analyze user behavior to provide personalized recommendations, making experiences feel tailored and relevant.
These examples show how digital technology transforms how we connect, experience, and interact with the world.
Then Elle finneshed off the convorsation with notes on:
