  3. User generated content, also known as Consumer Generated Media, User created Content or Social media refers to various kinds of media content, publicly available, that are produced by end-users. • The term entered mainstream usage during 2005 having arisen in web publishing and new media content production circles. Its use for a wide range of applications including problem processing, news, gossip and research reflects the expansion of media production through new technologies that are accessible and affordable to the general public. • All digital media technologies are included, such as question-answer databases, digital video, blogging, podcasting, mobile phone photography and wikis. In addition to these technologies, user generated content may also employ a combination of open source, free software, and flexible licensing or related agreements to further reduce the barriers to collaboration, skill-building and discovery.

The people formerly known as the audience," who“ were on the receiving end of a media system that ran one way, in a broadcasting pattern, with high entry fees and a few firms competing to speak very loudly while the rest of the population listened in isolation from one another— and who today are not in a situation like that at all. • The people formerly known as the audience are simply the public made realer, less fictional, more able, less predictable. • Social media are primarily Internet- and mobile-based tools for sharing and discussing information among human beings We Media User Generated VS Journalism
