    New Media

    What is New Media?

    New media are forms of media that are


    computational and rely on computers for
    redistribution. Some examples of new
    media are computer animations, computer
    games, human–computer interfaces,
    interactive computer installations, websites,
    and virtual worlds.
    New media are often contrasted to "old
    media", such as television, radio, and print
    media, although scholars in communication
    and media studies have criticized inflexible
    distinctions based on oldness and novelty.
    New media does not include analog
    broadcast television programs, feature films,
    magazines, or books – unless they contain
    technologies that enable digital generative
    or interactive processes.
    Types Of New Media

    • Blogs:- Although blogs are an early form of new media, they are still relevant and share
    several characteristics of the most recent new media types.Information in blogs is easily
    accessed and searched for, and everything is typically organized naturally.
    • Virtual Reality:- Virtual reality technologies simulate an environment along with the
    user’s physical presence and sensory experience. Commonly, the user experiences
    virtual reality through a special headset or on a computer screen.
    • Social Media:- Social media centers on creating, sharing and exchanging information,
    ideas and content in online networks and communities. Highly interactive, social media
    is a form of new media that relies heavily on the participation of users to provide value.
    • Online Newspapers:-Online newspapers are considered new media for many of the
    same reasons as blogs. Online newspapers blend multiple types of media and are easily
    accessed and searched. Users can also interact with some online newspapers via a
    comment feature.
    • Digital Games:-Digital games are a part of everyday media culture and a unique type of
    new media.
    Globalization
    • The rise of new media has increased communication between people all over the world
    and the Internet. It has allowed people to express themselves through blogs, websites,
    videos, pictures, and other user-generated media.

    • Terry Flew (2002) stated that as new technologies develop the world becomes more
    globalized. Globalization is more than the development of activities throughout the world,
    globalization allows the world to be connected no matter the distance from user to user
    (Carely 1992 in Flew 2002) and Cairncross (1998) expresses this great development as
    the "death of distance". According to (Croteau and Hoynes 2003: 311) new media has
    established the importance of making friendships through digital social places more
    prominent than in physical places. Globalization is generally stated as "more than
    expansion of activities beyond the boundaries of particular nation states".[6]
    Globalization shortens the distance between people all over the world by the electronic
    communication (Carely 1992 in Flew 2002) and Cairncross (1998) expresses this great
    development as the "death of distance". New media "radically break the connection
    between physical place and social place, making physical location much less significant
    for our social relationships" (Croteau and Hoynes 2003: 311).

    • However, the changes in the new media environment create a series of tensions in the
    concept of "public sphere".

    • There is fierce media competition.

    Traditional Media V/s New Media

    NewMedia

    businesses targeting a large to target a smaller yet more
    audience via billboards, print specific target audience
    ads, and TV commercials. through social media, pay-per-
    click ads, and SEO.

    Ethical issues in new media research
    • Due to the popularity of new media, social media websites (SMWs) like
    Facebook and Twitter are becoming increasingly popular among
    researchers (Moreno, Goniu, Moreno, Diekema, 2013).Although SMWs
    present new opportunities, they also represent challenges for
    researchers interested in studying social phenomena online, since it can
    be difficult to determine what are acceptable risks to privacy unique to
    social media. Some scholars (e.g. Moreno, Frost & Christakis, 2008)
    argue that standard Institutional Review Board (IRB) procedures provide
    little guidance on research protocols relating to social media in particular.
    • Observational research
    • Interactive research
    • Survey and interview research
    Conculsion
    Given the rapidly changing media structure, the widespread of new
    media, especially theInternet is rapidly becoming a new force in
    broadcast organizations around the world. It has changingthe way
    for them to reach and understand their audiences as never before.
    However, there are severalconcerns about the new media such as
    online safety, privacy, credibility of source and so on. Therefore,in
    order to better understand the effects of the new media on the
    traditional broadcast media (Radioand TV), our overall objective was
    to study the interrelatedness between traditional and new mediafrom
    different aspects including politics, social development and
    economic
