New media is the term used to refer to anything digital or computerised that disseminates information or that is used for communication. This takes into considerarion the internet, your blackberry smartphone as well as that new computer game you just bought last christmas! Until around the 1980's media depended on print and analog models to get information out to a news-starved public, but with the growth and manipulation of various technologies (such as the digitization of photography and cinematography) within the last 25 years or so, there is now a marked difference in how news and other information is created, manipulated and disseminated.

New (digitized) media is being used to transform almost every aspect of human life. Let's take a look at digital technology's influence on the various ways in which we communicate.
