New media are the cultural objects which use digital computer technology for distribution and exhibition, but in my opinion the definition thereof must be revised every few years.  New media has radically broken the connection between physical and social place, making the physical location less significant to us. Social movement media has a rich and storied history that has changed at a rapid rate since new media became widely used.

Media has been used extensively by social movements to educate, organise, and share cultural views. Although the social media has given aspiring journalist and the industry of journalism a platform to distribute our works and views and have the audience to communicate by participating on daily comments, social media has also brought doubt to my mind that security concerns over new media have increased due to the amount of cyberspace, people can easily hack into people personal information through social media, but never the less has it open a vast amount of space where people can share their news with others audiences.

It is an improved medium that can also be a source of job creation, in a sense that if you are good in writing daily blogs or whatever you’re interested in and receiving daily comments on the topics that you will unravel, then the software publication will pay you for every person that joins the daily conversations. So in other words, professional journalist and aspiring journalist with the appropriate technology can now produce their  online media and include images, text and sound clips of some of the videos  that perhaps relate to the topic at hand, because media is a social instrument of communication for example radio or newspaper.

From my opinion social media helped me be creative in any possible way by creating a large platform that is diverse and also versatile in a sense that under blogs alone there are different types of blogs, such as the genre blog that focus on particular subjects such as a political blog or an education blog. And the media type which comprise of videos, shorter posts and mixed media. In counterpoint Hugh Hewitt who exemplifies a mass media personality adding his reach by being an influential blogger and helped me get an idea of the platform and it’s inexpensive.
