Over the course of this semester I have done a lot of research on Twitter and plan on creating a page for twitter or adding to the topic, which is currently under the social media page. In addition I would like to add some information pertaining to the privacy and security of the new media technologies that have become a part of our everyday lives. discussing things like Privacy Policies, PII, and more.
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
These sound like excellent contributions! Twitter seems to have changed so much lately that I'm sure the wiki needs to be updated. Good thinking!! Also love the idea of adding to privacy and security.. That is one of the things that will constantly change as society changes therefore Im sure some time of update is needed. I look forward to reading your contributions.
