Term Project

For my term project I will be comparing Social Networking, with the real thing. I will give a brief description of what both are. I will compare the two and give my opinion of which is better. For Social Networking I will discuss websites liks Facebook and Linkedin. I will compare those with regular business networking, and talk about how different life would be without social networking.

What is New Media?

New Media has changed the way that information is communicated. An example, is me writing this blog now and expressing my thought about New Media. A main aspect of new media is the advancement of the internet. Through the internet we are provided with a variety of special resources that enable us to better communicate. Blogs allow people to be able to share there thoughts and express themselves. Wikis are a very useful source of information as well. For example, Wikipedia, with Wikipedia people are able to get quick background information about certain topics. Through social networking sites, like Facebook and Myspace people are able to communicate with others all over the world. Websites like Ebay creates opportunities for people to sell items to people that live far away. New Media is a great advancement in the way people communicate across the globe.
