Consider the impact that Words & Images have on society

Words, images, advertisements, photography, and media engulf our lives. So, I pose these two questions when viewing my postings:

Both visual and verbal rhetoric influence how people think, feel, and react to what they see or hear. No matter how small the intent, words, images, advertisements, photography, and the media have the power to change a community(s), a person(s), or culture(s).

I don’t understand what the developers are going to do with the cartoons children draw and submit, but they do have a valid point: “Children today are growing up in a world of technology and communications. They have never experienced a world without the internet, with every part of their day consumed by mobile phones, websites, computer games, apps, Xbox, you name it.” So, they’ve come up with this site to find out what children’s perceptions of the internet actually is by way of scribble, drawing, or pieces of art. It's pretty interesting to see how children think and what they think about the web and technology through cartoon drawings...
