  1. Introduction to New Media Dr. BurçeÇelik

  2. POST HTTP AGE People are more inclined to get what they have on social media rather than searching for files. Thus, we are now on the age of social networks.

  3. BLOGSFrom Andrew Sullivan, “Why I Blog”, The Atlantic, November 2008 The word blog is a conflation of two words: Web and log. It is a log of thoughts and writing posted publicly on the WWW. (p.1). http://www.theatlantic.com/video/archive/2008/10/your-brain-on-blog/24261/ No retroactive editing, spontaneous expression of instant thought. Unlike print journalism, its borders are extremely porous and its truth inherently transitory. The unique narrative structure which has no ending, no structure similar to a book or anything else printed.

  4. BLOGSFrom Sullivan, 2008 Blog is hourly writing not daily –the risk of error or the thrill of prescience that much greater. More free-form, more accident prone, less formal, more alive…like writing out loud. The most similar form to blogs is diary that is read by others and not solely about private matters. It is similar to blog in its confessional mode. The difference of feedback to bloggers is it is instant, personal and brutal. Bloggers have to do self-correction, if not s/he would be left behind by the competitors and abandoned by the readers. Brevity and immediacy. It is like a broadcast not like a publication. It needs to be short and clear. Like conversation (the readers relate with the blogger), not production. Hyperlink to the original source is the key in blogging news. Links to other blogs and sites.

  5. Internet JournalismFrom Nicholas Lemann, “Amateur Hour”, The New Yorker, August 7, 2006. Blogging, web journalism. Is blogging a real journalism? Amateurs blog! Jerome Armstong who is a blogger defines this as “netroots”. Many bloggers see themselves as journalists. The inspirational concept is ‘citizen journalism’. “The internet is not unfriendly to reporting; potentially it is the best reporting medium ever invented….To keep pushing in that direction, thought, requires that we hold up original reporting as a virtue and use the Internet to find new ways of presenting fresh material –which inescapably, will wind up being produced by people who do that full time, not “citizens” with day jobs”. Ethics of blogging and blogging as alternative journalism.
