About Me

Hi! My name is Tyla Martin and I am a fourth year telecommunications major at the University of Florida. I was born and raised in South Florida and love all things that have to do with the beach and sun!  Some of my hobbies include swimming, shopping, and running a food Instagram with my friend.  We got super into " trendy foods " that all millennials seem to be apart of these days and decided to create an Instagram to show the places we have been and want to go. It gave us a really good excuse to travel and find some unique places and we were also able to get a ton of recommendations from people that we would have never found ourselves.  I turned 21 over the summer and have a younger brother who is still in high school.  When I first started college I had some idea of what I wanted to do but was never really set so I originally was a journalism major and then realized I had a more specific dream career in mind. I love all things sports and entertai...

Throughout the book Steve Krug pinpoints ways in which you can make your website as user friendly as possible.  One of the biggest lessons I think I learned was the whole concept of “Don’t Make Me Think.” A major emphasis is that a website should be pretty self-explanatory. I mean this in the sense that a website shoul...

Millennials and Their "Trendy" Food

Image
Taking pictures of what we are doing in the exact moment that we are doing it has always been what millennials have been best at. However, our favorite activity to capture these days seems to be food.  Specifically what we are eating and where we are eating it. Can anyone honestly say they are surprised that food pictures are so in now? Think about it, the one thing that everyone has in common is food. Everyone loves food, everyone loves trying new things, and everyone especially loves being trendy. So, it is no surprise that the next big internet sensation became about our obse ssion with getting the perfect Instagram worthy picture of our breakfast, lunch, or dinner.  Advertising and marketing agencies are now looking at how influential peoples posts about food might actually be. We live in a generation where just about anyone and everyone has some form of social media, so it is reasonable that the best way to reach an audience is through a social media platform. An artic...
