New Media

New media is all the media the involves us right now. From the Twitter to the telephone, everything has a little part in what we call new media. New media are all the ways that we have to communicate with one another. New media creates social media. Everyone in the world conected to discover new ideas and new ways of thinking in a click of a button. Since the popularization of computers, most of the new media today is related to computers and the internet. It is almost crazy to think that about 15 years ago Facebook, YouTube, MySpace, Wikipedia, Google were not popular or not even invented of that matter. The industrial computer, personal computer, the desktop, the laptop, the mobile web capability are examples of how media has changed over the years, but "what is next?" you might think. The answer no one knows.

Description

In this project I will research the history of YouTube and how did it impact the lives of millions of people around the globe. I will further research the negative and positive impacts of the this website. Possibly also I will look into the future of YouTube and attempt to find out if this new media today will ever become old media, or will YouTube turn other medias into old medias.
