Media vs. Massmedia George Tsonev’s (Plovdiv University) idea, furthered by me. • One person to one person by tools – media; • One person to people/communities by tools – media; • Institution to people/communities/nation(s) by tools – massmedia.
Non-Anonymous/Anonymous(media) • Chat by writing • Chat by speaking • Video chat • Group chat • Options to call GSM or another type of phone • Skype 5.5. is integrated with the FB chat.
Semi-Official (media) • Chat/Messages in the social networks. • Email (lately named as ‘conversation’ – because of the the exchange of email messages). • Official – documents with e-signature.
Anonymous in general (media) • Websites for different kinds of dating, esp. for persons who seek sex (proto social networks).
Non-Anonymous • Blogs & Personal Websites (media) • Websites of institutions (massmedia) • Social Networks (massmedia)
