Tell me the Future and The age of Permanent net Revolution. questions.

The age of Permanent net Revolution. questions.
1. An 'Endism' is the perspective that sees new technologies as replacing older ones, named by computer scientist John Seely Brown.

2. A 'Media Ecosystem' is the sense that the media runs like an ecosystem, with the 'Organisms' being the broadcast and narrowcast ntelevision, movies, radio, print and the internet. Mostly the system which we relate to most is the TV. therefore this ecosystem is the media enviroment in which most of us grew up.

3. 'Narrowcasting' is where special content is aimed at subscription-based audiences and distributed via digital chanels.

4. The difference between the internet and the web is that the web is enormous, but is just on thing that runs on the internet's tracks of signalling, but is already being overtaken. Cambridge firm Cachelogic have said, peer-to-peer networking traffic now exceeds web trafiic by a factor of between 2 to 10. Therefore all these types of traffic are contained withing the internet.

5. We talk about a 'push and pull' medium when thinking about the future, it captures the essence of where weve been and where we are heading. Broadcast Tv is a 'push' medium: a select brand of producers decide what is being created. The web is the opposite it is a 'pull' medium, nothing is given to you unless you choose it.

6. A positive part of blogging is the way people can recieve loads of info about anyhting they want at a tocuh of a button, it also allows people to interact and creats a community between people using the blogs. It allows people to be creative, photos can be posted on website and uploaded in seconds the way you want.

7. The internet has added a whole new dimension to digital technology, by allowing people to upload and tag their pictures on websites, which they can search an entire database for. Snapshots of anything can be found, and truely beautiful images uncovered, it has added a whole new lease to photography.

8. I think TV is becoming less and less popular with the vast increase in new media technologies, these open wider horisons to the public, allow them to communicate with whoever they want, and creates a communtiy of the internet. All of this means people are spending more time exploring the media than watching TV.

9. To try and stop this change big companies such as 'Microsoft' and 'BT' and setting up and internet based TV on demand where anything can be watched at anytime, and new media centres are being developed so who can do all you need to on one machine.

1.Chris De WolfeCEO, co-founder MySpace.
Social networks in the will become an infinitely more personal, more portable socila destinations.
These destinations will be expanded to all corners of the world, with the increase of social destinations people are wanting there online experience to become more personal.

With this huge increase in demand current hardware will have to be thoroughly enhanced, with a more collabrotive and dynamic web.

2.Chad HurleyCEO, co-founder YouTube
In five years video broadcasting will be the most accesible form of communication, people will be more open to cheaper better devices allowing to send anything they want to the friends or everyone on the internet. Chad's goal is to bring people together and expand the way youtube is used on the internet. he is a positive technological determist because he is for technology helping the way we live.

3.Maurice Levy says the challenge for advertiser will be to keep up there creativity so that viewers are kept interested.
Liquid media: this is where you can browse millions of things whichever you want whenever you want without having to want of look at other things first.
Linear media: this is viewer media in a set order with no choice about it.

4.We can see that Norvig is suggesting that Edison new what was needed and what was useful much in the way internet is developing, we will be able to do alot more alot quicker, and be able to find anything we want to.

5.In the developing the acces to new media technologies is very limited meaning we are at a digital divide and will inevitably leave them behind as we progress with our need for infoormation.
