2. What multimedia device or service would you find it hardest to be without? Discuss I personally believe that it would be gaming consoles (example Playstation Portable and Nintendo 3DS) because I play games a lot and it's something I treasure... However for most people it would be their mobile phone. This is because with a mobile phone they can reach people immediately by calling them or sending them a text message inside or outside of your home. You can also access the internet on your phone with special phone plans and Wi-Fi hotspots.
3. The video on future directions (third video) has already to some extent come true. What multimedia technologies displayed in this video are already commonly used?
Some technology in the video include smart phones, smart watches, iPad, GPS and the TV screen.

4. Do you see any advantages/disadvantages to the use of such multimedia technology?
Advantages that I see in this video is that the new technology is smart and advanced making it easier to move around in the day. An example is the television where he can use it like a computer to email his working assistant by voice. The man therefore is able to get dressed and respond to his assitant at the same time. Disadvantages however is when people forget about the different things they have in the video (example the smart phone and smart watch). People are relying so much on technology that they would not be able to do many things without technology by their side. If the man forgot his while he was jogging, he wouldn't have known about the change in meeting time, if the man's television blacked out he wouldn't have been able to contact his assistant either. Being too reliant on technology isn't a good thing.
