New Media

Media has been evolving since the beginning of time. The first form of media started hundreds of years ago through oral media such as stories past down through generations, and it has changed to a world of new media in which we can interact and find out information and news that is occurring on the other side of the planet within minutes of its occurrence. New media has many different attributes that have made the entire planet able to network with one another on a very personal basis. Media was made for one purpose and through new technology, ideas, and complexities, is now used to form new media. New media allows any person to share information with the entire world. It has been artificially constructed and given meaning through every person using new media today. New media is a complex form of technology created by the world as a whole.
