4. Social
Media
Social media is a type of online media that
expedites conversation as opposed to
traditional media, which delivers content but
doesn't allow readers/viewers/listeners to
participate in the creation or development
of the content.

6. Sociological
Defini=on
of
Social
Media
Social Media refers to not only the
technology but the cultural and behavioral
traits of people communicating and sharing
with one another. Through social networks,
people are listening, sharing, creating,
judging, and innovating in ways that are
reshaping relationships (e.g., government
to constituents or friend to friend), power
bases, financial models, and knowledge.

broadcasting
brought media into

10. Shou%ng:
One-‐to-‐Many
“The
one-to-many
approach is out…It was
replaced by CRM, the
one-to-one model. This
gave the ability to
customize a message.
This model was, in turn,
replaced by the one-fromone, or search model ”
But all good things must change…
11. Shou%ng:
S%ll
Effec%ve?
“There is no question that the future of
advertising will look radically different from
its past. The push for control of attention,
creativity, measurements and inventory
will reshape the advertising value chain
and shift the balance of power.”
12. Advertising is the price
companies pay for
being unoriginal
- Yves Behar, designer
13. Fourth
Media
Age:
Internet
Everyone becomes
their own media
company because of
infrastructure,
Internet, digital
technology, and
interactive easy-touse sites.
