Privacy

With New Media people are posting more and more about their private lives online. People may not realize that their posts are insecure or what kinds of information they are letting out.
In addition, because of the lack of privacy/security people may hesitate to post. This is very unfortunate as everyone deserves to have a voice and to have their voice attributed to them.

    Privacy is very important and I believe that people should know who views their personal information. The lack of privacy is actually making people more wary of what they post. However, I have noticed that although people do know about the potential information leaks or the privacy invasion, they still use these platforms because they are used to it.

Creativity

New media fosters creativity in that it creates a place where people can freely share their new creations. In addition, as seen in the article 1+1+1=1: The New Math of Mashup by Sasha Frere-Jones, new media and new platforms give people a place to collect tools and media to create new and different things. The article speaks specifically to music mashups, however, the same can be said for still and moving images. There is a treasure trove of open source images that can be used by artists.  https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2005/01/10/1-1-1-1

Blog about Twitter

A conversation or discussion on twitter differs greatly from a conversation or discussion that happens face to face. People will say things from behind their computer's that they would never say in person. In addition, twitter conversations need to be in short 140-character bursts which is not necessarily how conversations flow naturally. In this way it differs from a blackboard conversation as well.
