What's new media?

The term “new media” has its challenges because looking back, every new development in media technology is “new” at the time it comes out. New media is a term meant to encompass the emergence of digital, computerized, or networked information and communication technologies which began in the later part of the 20th century. The online society can also be broken into societal groups to be successfully targeted by advertisements and subjects of interest. Another place to look for present and future media is the massive realm of massive online multiplayer games. so i think new media is making the access to information and everything we want to know about more convenient and faster.

You Tube vs. hulu

In my term paper I want to compare www.youtube.com with www.hulu.com. I will mainly focus on the differences and similarities between both websites. YouTube is of course older and more popular among people but there are some shortcomings which YouTube needs to pay attention to in order to compete with hulu. On the other hand, there are some advantages which youtube has on hulu too. The big question which people are more debating over is which is going to be the next winner.
