  1. INTRODUCTION TO NEW MEDIA DR. BURÇE ÇELİK

  2. THE NEW NEW MEDIA • Words and photos were new on the net, now videos, news feed, RSS, apps are there. • New hardwares such as ipad, android mobiles, iphones, smart phones, tablets etc. • The hope is that new kind of journalism will enhance companies’ earnings; their fear is that if they don’t adapt they will lose audiences’ attention.

  3. The New New Media • Videos- create sustained engagement, but many news organizations found it to be expensive and difficult to produce. They don’t get much ad traffic. • Mobile devices- create great access to news but screens are small. • Tablets, especially ipad created intensive experience but Apple insisted on charging higher fees and controlling economically valuable information.

  4. The new new media • First it was convergence: TV, newspaper, magazine and pure online sites all started to look the same. • Now comes a new divergence: online journalism organizations must distribute news into distinctly different modes of presentation.

  5. The new new media • By the end of 2011, 60 million ipads are in the market, and new tablets are entering the market. Approx. there are 25.000 ipad users in Turkey. • Apple’s strategies of pricing trouble the news orgns, it wants 30% cut of any subscriptions paid through iTunes and do not share the users’ information with the news organizations unless customers agree. So they do not know the readers’ profile. • Google is pushing an alternative, One Pass, it charges 10 % and share the information of users. • For now, the readers of these apps are bonus for publishers-

  6. The new new media • Time is on all platforms –kindle, ipad, androids, web 2.0 • http://www.time.com/time/ • Someareonly on tabletssuch as the Daily, someareonly on web and tablets, dipnottv • http://t24.com.tr/ • http://www.dipnot.tv/

  7. Videos • Video has become an essential element of the digital experience. • Broadband access has made video distribution more feasible. But persuading users to watch news is not easy. • Online video journalism: http://edition.cnn.com/video/ • http://video.milliyet.com.tr/ • http://video.ntvmsnbc.com/ • http://banuguven.com/

  8. Print vs Digital Consumption • Estenson (CEO of CNN) says “going online is a private experience, versus watching in the living room. When people are online, they seem to gravitate to things that are more provocative than they would if they were in a room with their friends”. • 2 minute stories – people’s attention span is short. • There are hits and flops- crises times are hits for video watching online.

  9. Pricing strategies • Users do not appreciate to pay for their online access to news. • Monthly, yearly subscriptions • Other complex models such as New York Times’, users are limited to 20 stories a month… which led a blogger to write in his blog post “The New York Times is Delusional”.

  10. Two arguments • Should it be free or paid? • Pay proponents say, high-quality journalism costs a great deal to produce, so users ought to pay to get it. • Pay opponents say, paywalls cut sites off from “the conversation” online and will deprive them of the attention they need from blogs, aggregators and social media.
