New Media

Blackberry messaging "bbm" has become one of the newest and most direct forms of communication between individuals. I personally have become an addict for the technology because of its direct speed and ability to be aware of when the person you are bbming has read the message. In today's world it seems that speed and promptness has become the key to technologies succeeding. Bbm has definitely achieved the mindset of new media users.

One of the most important social networking sites that has come into existence is Facebook. Facebook has not only become important for socialization but, as I have learned personally this summer, it has become a new media market for companies. Advertisement agencies have used Facebook to create new markets and to also create pages dedicated to their brands so there is awareness of their products. This type of new media that is being presented allows people to become apart of the products growth and development and give them the ability to directly influence the thoughts and ideas of the business.

Skype incorporates all forms of communication; visual, chat, and phone calls. Skype can be used in a number of ways. Skype is mostly used on computers to either make phone calls long distance because it is free. It is used for video chatting between two different computers and can even be used on the iPhone4 for its video capabilities. This type of technology expands communication for all people to be able to become even closer in distance to those people they desire to be close with.
