Do newspapers really tell us everything? I mean E V E R Y T H I N G.
Probably not right?
Too much could happen during the day and they could never capture them all and put them together. This is where the local smaller media outlets could help to fill the gap. I tried to summarise the few options I usually go for when I need the community information.
Although I live in Vancouver, I do spend a good amount of time in Burnaby coz BCIT is thereeeeee. Burnaby Beacon is the first one that I found online and I actually enjoy it more day by day. I subscribe to their newsletters and sometimes they do provide some good inspiration for content creation. I like how they forecast what’s happening in the community and what activities we shall not miss.

Generic one I would recommend 604 Now as they cover a few more cities in the Lower Mainland, from Vancouver to Abbotsford. You can also just browse through category (such as events, culture, food etc) if you are wide open for ideas. Their rich content could drag you to stay for at least a half day to figure out what to choose.

With the introduction of the World Wide Web, people are getting limitless information every single day and trying to stay away from that is an issue now. More and more people talk about social media detox. It can help empty your mind for a while and give the priority to our own lives. We’ve got to think a bit but not living on what the Internet feeds us. Social media fatigue or feeling overwhelmed seem to be a new topic to explore in the modern world. How the technology manipulates the users is also a huge debate to dig in. Isn’t that creepy to learn how your devices actually control you by algorithms. Sometimes I feel like it’s a war between human and AI as we are now trying to fight back its control.
Conformity is the thing to note when socialising but we shall all respect each person’s opinion on using social media. Feel free to dig in the options provided above or just live your life in the way you want~~~
