Because everyone's entitled to their opinion. Politics and New Media. Social media has become a coordinating tool for most of the world’s political movements; just as most authoritarian and democratic governments are trying to limit access to it (Shirky, 2011). While it may be true for other governments, the Singapore government is loosening its control about the use of social and new media regarding politics. Will political campaigning go digital instead?

Because everyone's entitled to their opinion. In the industrial and pre-industrial age, people used to work according to the rhythm of biological time. Although fraught with hardship (physically), life was simple. This change in the concept of time has brought a shift in the way people now work.

DIY Health. Are we becoming our own doctors? | Faithchantal's Blog

https://faithchantal.wordpress.com/2011/04/09/diy-health-are-we-our-becoming-own-doctors

Because everyone's entitled to their opinion. DIY Health. Are we becoming our own doctors? Health used to be an issue of the state where there was a focus on diseases and treatments. However, the concept of health has shifted from public to private as consumers are now the gatekeepers of their personal health information. The discourse of health schemes have shifted to an individual’s obligation to take charge of their own health in the form of prevention and lifestyle. (Leong 2011). Users should note th...

Because everyone's entitled to their opinion. Life is not about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. Shaw quoted in Leong 2011). This cannot be more true as our lives are lived in media- we are living media lives. (Deuze 2011) People view the online world as a space where social networks are forged. Cutlack (2011).
