2. Introduction
New media is a term meant to encompass the
emergence of digital, computerized, or networked
information and communication technologies in the

time, anywhere, on any digital device, as well as interactive
user feedback, creative participation. Another aspect of

3. • Some examples may be theInternet,
websites, computer multimedia, video games,
CD-ROMS, and DVDs. New media does not
include television programs, feature films,
magazines, books, or paper-based
publications – unless they contain
technologies that enable digital interactivity
4. History :
• Until the 1980s media relied primarily upon print and
analog broadcast models, such as those of television and
radio. The last twenty-five years have seen the rapid
transformation into media which are predicated upon the
use of digital technologies, such as the Internet and
video games. However, these examples are only a small
representation of new media. The use of digital computers
has transformed the remaining 'old' media, as suggested by
the advent of digital television and online publications.
Even traditional media forms such as the printing press
have been transformed through the application of
technologies such as image manipulation software like
Adobe Photoshop and desktop publishing tools.
5. Definitions
New Media versus Cyberculture – Cyberculture is the various
social phenomena that are associated with the Internet and
network communications (blogs, online multi-player gaming),
whereas New Media is concerned more with cultural objects and
paradigms (digital to analog television, iPhones).
New Media as Computer Technology Used as a Distribution
Platform – New Media are the cultural objects which use digital
computer technology for distribution and exhibition. e.g. (at least
for now) Internet, Web sites, computer multimedia, Blu-ray disks
etc. The problem with this is that the definition must be revised
every few years. The term "new media" will not be "new"
anymore, as most forms of culture will be distributed through
computers

New media has a lot of disadvantages to it as well for instance we spend a
lot of our time on social networking websites such as Facebook, Twitter etc.
that we don’t interact with our fellow students or work colleagues as much.
News spreads fast on the Internet at an uncontrollable rate once it on the
Internet it’s hard to get it off. Also if we are searching news topics online we
can find some extreme views on the subject that we might find disturbing.
Another disadvantage is cyber bullying children at school could be getting
bullied non stop when they go home and go on to sites like Facebook and
Bebo and there still getting bullied this could cause the child to get depressed
or worse kill themselves. Paedophiles and stalkers can use social networking
websites to get valuable information on there pray, during the riots in
England people could go on YouTube and watch footage of it. The people in
the riots took pictures and posted them on the likes of Twitter and Facebook.
Terrorist use the Internet to post video of potential attacks. We have no
privacy online anymore any picture we post of ourselves are on the Internet
for good it’s not safe for us to put any valuable information online because
someone could steal your identity online use your credit card to buy anything.
We can see that we our controlled by the Internet but it can be danger for
some who put themselves at risk be outing their information online for people
to look and steal.
