Social influence-Entertainment

For most people in the 1930’s, entertainments were not as versatile as entertainment today that they were limited to listening to radio or going to movies over a week. Their movies were like TV series today that people went to Movie Theater to watch episodes of films and enjoy cartoons or news of the war. The movies were black and white and are silent that people watched bunch of moving picture with actors having dialogue with only a few being shown on screen in subtitle. At home, people enjoy every night sitting on their couch listening to the radio broadcast. During 1930, over two-third of the American household own at least 1 radio. Unlike present radio, the size of the radio was as big as a TV. People relied on radio for mostly news and stories which are also played like TV series that stories are separated into episodes. As technology improves, entertainment has more and more variety that present day we can enjoy surfing on Internet, checking status on social network, chatting with people from all over the globe or looking at videos on YouTube. Digital games were invented that we play Wii or Xbox 360 over the weekend or simply flash game up on face book. We are truly lucky to be born in the 21st century.
