NEW MEDIA

New Media, according to me, has a lot to do with people communicating/interacting via the internet. "New Media" definitely makes the world a little smaller because everyone can create something and broadcast it for others to view. People even meet their future spouses on the internet nowadays!?! On one hand New Media is good because it triggers creativity. People like the idea of creating something on the internet that is all about them: their pictures, their hobbies, their whole life story...etc. and people also like the idea of other people viewing what they created. No one is forced to use the internet; people choose the websites they log onto and the things that they view. On the other hand New Media allows for fewer social interactions (physical communication).
