Great Products for a Great Price

I know that I am not the only one who feels this way, but all day everyday I am constantly thinking about food. Where should I go to eat for dinner? What kind of food am I in the mood for at the moment? Now that I am a college student the next question is, How much does it cost?
Groupon.com is a great way for all of these questions to be answered.
You can quickly subscribe and after typing in your city a wide variety of options are now available. Right now it says "$10 for $20 worth of Burgers, Drinks, and More at Rosie O'Grady's."
If you scroll down there are the directions to this restaurant along with the phone number followed by an assortment of personal reviews. This website also states how many people have already used this deal and it encourages people who have been to O'Grady's to provide their own input about their experience.

Overall New Media is revolutionary and interactive. I found this website and after reading on I saw that it does not only pertain to food. There are discounts for shoes and other goods as well. The website is fully interactive and by that I mean, people can post their opinion about the discounts directly on the website or they could transfer the information to Twitter and Facebook. New Media requires a high level of participation accompanied with information on demand. Groupon.com successfully connects these two definitions and personally it is a form of New Media I have never seen before.
