The newest generation is often described as a society of social media. I believe there is a lot of truth in this sentence and there are some negative consequences of this fact. In the last year or two I discovered a trend involving younger people and their interest. Nowadays, if you look at a teenager in a public transport it would propably watch some 10 seconds video with loud, uncomplicated music. The second option is that it scrolls through some photos with a few word description or none. This observation leads to a very simple conclusion.The point is young people need more and more impulses. They simply get bored when they see a mere text, especially the longer one. There even is a phenomenon in the internet called "attention picture" involving attaching a photo to the post, because otherwise no one would read it.
I think it's quite dangerous as people are going just for media that are not brain developing and may cause problems in focusing when trying to enjoy a more difficult form of perception.
