I think that American apparels ads have most defiantly always stood out to me among their competitors, but if you are too look at the ads they all have the same Polaroid type shot look and the girl and or guy that is in the photo is always generally attractive, skinny tall and somehow modeling the clothing. The quoted and said that they are “authentic” I believe that when they started their adds like this they we originally authentic, but now the concept of the Polaroid skinny attractive girl seems over used and just because they aren't using a real quote on quote model doesn't mean they aren't doing exactly what their competitors are by taking a young skinny attractive female and putting their clothes on them they are creating the same broad premise as their competitors but just trying to word into a way that makes it seem like they are standing out but in reality it is all the same.

hello, and welcome to my blog!

on my blog i will be discussing several points that describe how important the media and social networking are to our lives, though photos videos and blogs posts. this photo describes the hundreds of social networking sites that we have available at the swipe of a finger on a tablet or the click of the mouse on a computer. With the fast growing world of technology growing at our fingertips this allows us to find and view media faster and in larger quantities than say a news broad cast would. media travels and becomes as viral as fast as you can tweet someone a link, send an email, post something on a blog, or on a friends Facebook page. we as humans are always looking for the next best thing and it has arrived. instead of sitting down on a Sunday morning and reading the newspaper with breakfast now, we are able to go online and ready today's paper. the internet is the center of most lives, and this is what i am going to be discussing this semester on my blog, media and how it effects our lives
