The internet is so amazing. You can watch a Youtube video on how to do just about everything. What a great way to contribute to DIY culture. What I especially find interesting is that women are so willing to share their beauty secrets. Before the advent of Youtube, women read books and magazines about beauty secrets. There was a lot of faith and trust involved in that, not to mention having to visualize specific steps and imagining the outcome. Now we have you tube- we can watch-rewind-learn things and access them wherever whenever. We can even share these resources for FREEEEEEE

ive learned so many things from the internet. I also feel like internet resources also can help multiple learners attain new skills. For example, i can watch videos, read instructions at my own pace. i have access to images, directions, everything is at my fingertips. in contrast to reading a books, which arent practical to lug around, usually dont have pictures and are never completely up to date with the most current information.
another trend i stumbled upon on a random google search was anime make up. The images look strange but from what i understand the person photographed has their eyes completely closed. This must take a lot of skill and patience. ( although i'm almost positive there are you tube video tutorials on it) it seems that the ladies that want this look study the work of anime artist to bring this to life. What does this mean? in a way this reminds me of avatars on second life.
