Discuss the power structure of new-media environment with focus on blog.</li><br /><li>“Convergence Culture maps a new territory: where old and new media intersect, where grassroots and corporate media collide, where the power of the media producer and the power of the consumer interact in unpredictable ways.”</li><br /><li>What are the new patterns of online-media consumption and production?</li><br /><li>Habemas and related on public sphere. How can blog be considered an answer to the assumed lack of public sphere and strengthen democracy? What are the obstacles?</li><br /><li>Blog publishing – A re-mediation? Some form of blogs can be seen as a remix that recycles and reproduce thoughts, culture, politics and media </li><br /><li>Blogs as a participation medium? Participatory Journalism?</li><br /><li>Credibility? How does blogging affect media credibility?</li><br /><li>Blog vs. traditional media:<br />Publish then filter vs. Filter then publish?<br /></li><br /></ul><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/883552695221231493-8450189034967834661?l=itu-thesis.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sigurður Högni Jónssonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10184659525256137919noreply@blogger.com0
