Printed books and magazines are no longer relevant for teens today. By Soon Qi Wei

Personally, I believe that printed books and magazines are no longer relevant for teens today. As we are in the technological age, social media has a huge impact on the lives of the new generation. Teenagers especially are always using social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to search for latest trends and news. Furthermore, these websites are free of charge, unlike hard copies of books and magazines that have to be brought from stores or borrowed from the library. Thus this shows that printed books and magazines are no longer relevant for teenagers today.
However, many people still believe that books and magazines are still very relevant these days. For social media sites, the internet is required to connect to them. (keep your focus on books & mag, pls add 2-3 sentences)) As for books and magazines, they can be carried all around with you and it is very convenient to read or use. Even with latest technology like 3G or LTC, which allows a user to connect to the internet from anywhere, many people might not have it. therefore, books and magazines are still one of the most efficient ways of learning and are still indeed very relevant.
