New Media is NOT…
- avoiding print
- putting down pen and paper
- swiping or pinching-and-zooming
- neglecting newspapers
- forgetting magazines
- believing that YOUNGER is BETTER
- being “Web 2.0″
- Tweeting
- WordPressing
- Facebooking
It’s thinking outside the box whenever possible and using any resource that’s fit for using. It’s about communicating a message regardless of the media required or desired. New Media is for starting, pushing, and ending revolutions; it’s also for family, friends, and adventures.
New Media is what you make it.
So make it great.
Agreed. I think people get a little freaked out by the title “new media”, especially those of us that aren’t entirely computer literate.
Yeah, you’re right. A lot of people that claim “they and computers just don’t get along” are likely to get pretty intimidated by the idea of “New Media.” I think it’s our job to make sure people understand that it’s more than websites and Photoshop. We should insist on staying in touch with the layman.
Wow! Talk about a positng knocking my socks off!
Your name is spelt the same as mine…
I say we need computers! New media helps us all. Be patient and take the time to learn,
