What is the Digital Culture?

When I think of digital culture I automatically think of computers and cell phones. Computers have changed from slow and bulky to thin and fast. A computer allows us to communicate with other people at a faster rate and to look up information in just seconds through the internet. Nowadays the internet can even be accessed through a cell phone. The internet has created social networks, such as Myspace, Facebook and Twitter that allows us to keep in touch with our friends and to make new ones. Almost everyone I know has an email account. Beginning in high school teachers have required us to send them homework or essays online. Now that I am in college some teachers assign homework for us to, for example, post up on a blog. I personally don’t mind because doing homework online is sometimes easier and we save paper at the same time. For example, this year part of my math grade will consist of doing practice problems, practice tests and quizzes online.
