Advantages & Disadvantages
New Media
New media refers to digital technologies that have emerged since the latter part of the 20th century. These technologies have revolutionized the way we communicate, consume information, and interact with the world around us.
The 3Cs in New Media :
Connect
New media connects people who would not normally have the chance to interact. This helps the profileration of idea sharing between individuals.
Collaborate
New media allows people to work together over great distances and make business transactions.
Create
New media is a tool for creating a great number of things, from photo editing to virtual lives.
Characteristics:
Digital
The growth of computerised technology in the 1990s led to what is known as digitalisation - the vast majority of information is now converted, stored and transmitted as binary code (a series of 1s and 0s).
Interactive
Old media' was usually a very much one-way affair, with professionally produced content being broadcasted to audiences who, for the most part, could do little else other than passively consume it.New media, however, is a much more interactive form of communication in comparison. People can engage and interact with the media as active audiences, customise it, and produce their own content .
Hypertextual
Hypertext, otherwise known as ‘links’, is a common feature of the internet that allows users more ease and freedom over how they browse different sources of information. This contrasts with old media, which is much more inflexible.
Globally Networked
New media has led to cultural globalisation – we can now interact with others globally and form connections virtually rather than locally. These wider networks enable ‘collective intelligence’ in that they allow people to share and combine resources, data, skills and information for any given purpose.
Virtual
New media presents a very different reality than our everyday, face-to-face reality - a virtual environment constructed with computer graphics and digital video. Users have control over their experience in this world but are also subject to many different types of information, opinions, interactions and products that they would not come across in real life.
Simulated
Simulations surpass the virtual nature of new media and create an immersive, artificial life. This is most obvious in computer games, which provide opportunities for users to experience a 'virtual life' that is simulated through digital technology.
Types:
Blog
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. For instance, blog posts are often nested under categories, and users can navigate posts by a specific category, tag or via search. And like other forms of new media where content is posted such as online newspapers and some social media platforms entries often contain mixed media such as photos and video to go along with text.
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. All virtual reality delivers a highly interactive, immersive experience that places the user in a lifelike or fictional environment. Some say that virtual reality’s unrivaled level of immersion qualifies it as the ultimate medium in new media
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.
As opposed to forms of new media like virtual reality, social media is commonplace.
Online newspaper
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.
Online newspapers along with social media and other forms of new media are a major part of why traditional newspapers are shifting to digital form
Mobile Games
Digital games are a part of everyday media culture and a unique type of new media. Certain types of games demonstrate the possibilities of new media. Massively multiplayer online role-playing games immerse gamers in virtual worlds that are built upon social interaction and these artificial worlds have their own structure, culture, ethos, economy and politics.Another example is how live video game streaming services are rising in popularity. This trend has led to a legitimate new sport called e-sports, or video games as professional spectator sports, The Economist reports.
