It is interesting, if the new media, like internet has got an influence for goverments and so on? Think for a while.
I guess it has. Look for the influence which TV has got for it! Internet is different from that, nowadays probably the most popular mass media - gives an opportunity to receive only these information which we really need. Thanks to RSS to dont have to search for news, they will be trying to find you instead of this. Now, you dont have to wait for news service in the afternoon. Due to the iPhone, mobilephones, laptops and so on, you have a possibility to receive your information everywhere.
So, as we can see, the Internet has a great power. But is it enough to have an influence for goverments? The point is that, the internet, blogging, rss etc. give people, not only media corporations!, right to speak, now everyone may show what is his opinion! it help people geather, help to see how many people think the same way like you. And in democratic times, people’s voice is a great power. Now, thanks to new ways of communicating, we have a voice, within its power of changing.

null We’ve just been talking about who know the aambassador ;P :D The question was, how to get to the person who knows George Bush? Very easy. As the researches show, you need no more than 6 people to give an information to EVERY singel person on Earth. Wow! X_X

Hello everyone! I would like to introduce myself - my name is Krzysztof Jankowski (Christopher), Iam form Poland. I established this blog as a participant of Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellows Initiative 2008, Wake forest University, Winston Salem, NC, USA :) You would like to know what it will be about, I presume. The answer is: about our reality. All this things around us, about some important issues, problems of the world and so on. Sounds a little bit gravy, however I will try to show you that it is not as much gravy as it looks like.



Hello world!
