So I attended today a debate hosted by Mount Royal University for communication students that dealt with internet and the new social media technologies like Twitter and Facebook. Though it was fairly mild and lot less heated than I thought it would be, it was still very interesting. Of course, it was a fairly small audience and the two debaters seemed to have a level of familiarity with each other, so it was very calm and in a way much less intriguing.
The debate itself wasn't extremely informative, rather it stated what a lot of people know about social mediums in a much more formal and intelligent form, it was done in a way that both contenders certainly seemed to have given some overlapping points without completely being able to expand on it (which was unfortunate).
