Q & A

Social media allows for user-generated content and interaction, while traditional media involves one-way communication from media outlets to the audience. Social media platforms are built on Web 2.0 technologies and encourage participation, while traditional media typically relies on editors and limited public interaction.

What is the main difference between social media and social networking?

Social media is a platform for sharing and publishing content online, while social networking focuses on connecting people with others, such as friends, family, and colleagues, often through these platforms.

What are the key advantages of social media over traditional media?

Social media allows for instant communication, global connections, and real-time news updates. It provides interactive platforms for users to share content and feedback, unlike traditional media, which is typically slower and more limited in its reach.

How do the processes of content creation differ between traditional media and social media?

In traditional media, content creation follows a one-to-many approach, where editors decide what content gets published. In contrast, social media operates on a many-to-many model, enabling users to create and share content, making the process more democratic and interactive.

How does interactivity differ between traditional media and social media?

Traditional media offers one-way communication, where content is delivered to an audience with no immediate feedback. Social media, however, encourages two-way communication, allowing users to comment, share, and interact with content in real-time.

Social media provides immediate access to information, allowing for instant updates. Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, requires time for content production and distribution, often resulting in delayed reporting.

What is meant by 'convergence' in media, and how does it apply to social media?

Convergence refers to the ability of different types of media to merge into one platform. Social media enables this convergence by allowing users to post text, images, videos, and audio, whereas traditional media operates within specific formats like print, radio, or television.

What are the limitations of traditional media's reach compared to social media?

Traditional media has a limited reach based on the size of its audience, subscription base, and geographical constraints. In contrast, social media allows global connectivity, offering a far-reaching and almost limitless audience.
