In my opinion- it is the way in which you are socialised that shows how you erxperience media. The word 'new media', expresses that what is media is brand new and an improvement from something in the past.
Films are an example of this, with technological enhancements that occur within films, it is easy to say that this has effected films as a whole. with action shots being of a higher standard, i believe that as a society, we are instantly gratified. We are always demanding more and more. I believe we have become greedy and rely on technology an new mediums far too much. Does anyome else agree??
I have to say though, because we have been bought up in a world where we are surrounded by media, we do take it for granted a little bit. I cant imagine a life without media and its new medias that make our world go round. we simply cannot live without it!
What do others think??

"New Media" also seems like a strange title, don't you think? Radio was new once upon a time, but wasn't called New Media. Is the Web so special? is it really different? Is it really NEW? Is the difference in the DISCOURSE surrounding the media?
