Week 9

Yesterday, we discussed "Rebooting American Politics." We talked about the role technology has in attaining knowledge. Technology makes knowledge acquisition easier, but there is also a "digital divide"because there are certain people that use the internet for political knowledge more than others (typically, younger people use the internet for political purposes than older people). I think that it is great that it is so easy to keep up to date with politics through phones, which we generally carry with us anywhere. Personally, I get CNN updates to my phone, which is a really easy way to keep up to date with everything going on. What do you guys think about technology taking over the realm of political knowledge?
