AI stock picking machines that will work on algorithms which will produce projections of stock whether to buy or sell or hold a stock.These projections will be based on data and information by social media, news, company valuations and other sources. I imagine this product to imitate Amazon's Alexa or Google's Echo and use language to communicate with the machine.

Any products of new media that allows people to create profiles where its then shared among other users in the community always has issues with privacy and confidentiality because there are open back doors that outside people can get a hold of your information, which makes social networks like Facebook, twitter, snapchat, and instgram look bad.

New media fosters creativity by giving individuals more tools than just a brushes and paint or nuts and bolts to work with, instead they can create more abstract things using technology that haven't been invented before, showing off innovation a completely new way. For example, in the article " Disney Tolerates a Rap Parody of Its Critters. But Why? it shows how individuals can make 2 different things synonymous with each other by matching it to a similar scene or movement with the other comparison, In addition, new media has helped music artists like Chance The Rapper promote music without a record label and other upcoming artists that use SoundCloud or even Itunes to get their music heard by people. 

Here is my so-called, "Bitmoji" which associated with Snapchat the disappearing image sender.  I downloaded the Bimoji app and started to customize my avatar by going through an array of selections such as gender, hair style, facial structure, clothes, skin color, eye size, and I also was able to position my Bitmoji holding a drink by choosing from a selection of other styles and positions. Now I can use this instead of a traditional emoji.  I am sure most students would upload their Bitmjoi on their assignment as its the most trending in the avatar circle.

These different virtual worlds can be used in a few atmospheres such as social, gaming, and healthcare.  In the New York Times, Dave Itzkoff says he was able to leave the jam-packed club and enter it virtually when he arrived home, almost like Grand Theft Auto, except its way more realistic.  One problem that I foresee is that virtual reality becoming too addicting for introverts or those who are just lazy to go out and enjoy the natural sunlight, which would then lead an even higher increase in obesity.  However, there are some benefits to virtual reality as well like connecting with an old college classmate that's now in Europe while you're still in the U.S.  In addition, this might be good for disabled people who don't have the mobility to travel from place to place. I think that in the future virtual worlds will accommodate us individually, such as our room, right now we see 4 walls made up of sheet rock, concrete, and wood behind all of that. Instead, our walls will

While visiting Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat, there were quite a few explicit similarities and differences that I noticed.  Facebook is definitely more well known and has twice as much users than the other 3 platforms, and I would say its more informative as far as random facts or news is concerned.  Whereas, Snapchat is more animated and colorful than Facebook, although Facebook just added filters like Snapchat, but its not the same experience as Snapchat.  In addition, Snapchat is completely different as it just updated its new map so you can see where your friends are at and a option to go ghost so no one can see your location, which neither Facebook, Snapchat, or Instagram has at the moment.
