BLOG NO -36

In the fast evolving world and society, especially in an increasingly market driven India, more so in a globalised city like Delhi, the convergence of different spheres and thoughts often open a Pandora’s box of choices, which is enough to confuse even the most determined person as well. Lucky are those who find a way to get out of this maze, built inside the mind and in the outer world also.

Thankfully I got an opportunity to experience a unique course, where all the different spheres of media converged at one place. Where the people could experience first hand, what are the fields in which they feel the most comfortable at.

After the explosion of 24x7 news channels, the face of media is changing rapidly. In the western world, the traditional form of news i.e newspapers, is fast turning as a thing of the past itself. And to keep up pace with the changing world, most of the newspapers have turned digital in the form of online news.

Although, in India Newspaper industry is at its peak and growing at a robust pace. But, it is predicted that here also a time will come when newspapers would also become a relic of the past. To be able to deal with this situation it's important to equip yourself accordingly. Thanks to our online media teacher Ben, we got to know a lot about the distict style of online writing. The blog which I have been writing is solely due to the help and initiative taken by him.

Even the most uninitiated of classmates often say that the best thing which they got from this course is their Blog. Blog, is an online personal diary, which can be used to convey your thoughts and reflections to the other people and in turn get their responses in the form of remarks. One can use it to vent out one's frustration, or to offer the most ingenious solutions to the trickiest problems . Perhaps, students also like the fact that unlike Newspaper and Television Script writing ,here the rules and guidelines are not as rigid and formal.
