After thoughts on Here Comes Everybody

Before reading Here Comes Everybody I used to think that a revolution was considered any new invention that made life easier; however, a "revolution doesn't happen when society adopts new technologies it happens when society adopts new behaviors"(160). Which means that a Internet in itself is not considered a revolution, but rather how our day to day life is affected by it. The way we change how we spend our time or do things is considered the revolution.

I also really began to think about how many people are claiming to be things that they do not have professional training in such as "photographers", "Instagram models" , and "bakers". However, they have no formal training  in these occupations. The lack of formal training does not take away from natural talent, but since they are not professionals their prices are lower which makes more people hire them more often than a professional that has the cost of over head which increases their prices. For example my mom has a sister that refers to herself as a "professional cake decorator" but has no formal training in it. Although she has no proper training when it comes to cake decorating she was still hired by people due to her low prices, but her clients were later disappointed by the poor quality of work.
