"What is New Media"

New media refers to the emergence of new technological advances in the computer industry. Most technologies described as "new media" are digital, often having characteristics of being manipulable, networkable, dense, compressible and impartial (1). Websites such as 'facebook', 'myspace', 'twitter', 'blogger' and 'bearcat search' are all examples of new media that allows one to network, interact with others and also do research. New media is rapidly improving and is replacing other old types of media as it faster and easier to use.
