Skype which is an internet service is now being used as a broadcasting tool. Reason being is because it is a fast, easy, and cheap way to broadcast live shots. Skype is starting to turn into the new youtube. News stations have actually tried to using skype to help broadcast because skype is able to use USB and also able to be used through a firewire.
The reason why I chose this article is because it proves that as days go on technology is improving, and now more than ever broadcasting can truly be reached around the world just through the internet. In my opinion as improvements are made on broadcasting different things such as news and entertainment, the more people will be able to actually just broadcast themselves. The only downside I see happening is that more and more people might start to lose jobs because people might not watch or use the same technology so places will have to downsize.
I also believe that this will hurt advertisers because they won't be able to advertise via commercials because things such as skype and youtube would just be clips. So overall this hurts the economy along with working people.
