Further Understanding-
Years ago, information which is now much easier to get hold of was not 10 years ago. This is due to the fact technology has taken over, mobile phones have been created, computers that are able to store data have been made, the internet has been created. Advanced technology has been made and is still developing. This day and age is of digitalisation is something which has continued to be created and hasn’t stopped this is because new ideas are being made. When computers were first invented dial up connections were the original way of accessing the internet. Now in most houses you’re able to have up to several laptops and PC’s sharing the same internet with a wireless connection- This is an example of technology changing.
Other forms of digital culture include social media. Social media is a social communication space which is web based, this allows you to send messages online, share photos, talk and video chat, web blogging, podcasts, internet forums.
Kaplan and Haenlein define social media as ‘a group of internet based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of web 2.0, and allow the creation and exchange of user generated content’.
Both Kaplan and Haenklein came to a conclusion that were six major social media types which included content communities, social networking sites, virtual games worlds, blogs, micro blogging and virtue communities.
Digital culture has become so huge we are now able to be a part of it, this is called new media blogging online is an example, we are now able to make our own websites feeding others information by just writing, sharing other useful links, adding videos and picture created by us-This is a form of digital, whereas objects like books or magazines would be seen as analogue.
