什么是social media?

阅读更多

什么是社会化媒体,首先要从媒体的定义来看,媒体就是信息的载体或者平台。

周口店猿人之间的对话不算媒体,一个猿人把狩猎场面刻在了石头上,其他猿人和今人看到了,这个石头就是媒体,后来的猿人可以模仿上面刻画的狩猎技能,今天我们看到的所有文物都是媒体,这个意义上说媒体具有存在性,至少能存在一段时间,凡是不能存在的东西,必然不是媒体。

具有存在性不一定就是媒体,我在我自己的杯子上写了一首诗,杯子就不是媒体,因为不具有发布性,没有受众,媒体一定需要有消费者。没有消费的信息,不是信息,其载体也不是媒体。因此媒体要具有发布性,要有一定规模的受众。

其次,为什么是社会化的?和工业媒体(industrial media)有什么区别呢? WIKI做了很好的概括(参见推荐阅读)。

为什么social media会选择互联网作为载体?其实这是一个很深刻的问题,从PC机开始,信息复制的成本变得越来越便宜,复制本身的成本,复制载体(磁盘,U盘,光盘)的成本都越来越便宜。从互联网开始,信息传播的成本越来越便宜,连电话都是IP电话,可见互联网在传播上的巨大优势,因此正是因为复制和传播的成本降低到这样一个程度,Social Media,人人都做信息发布者,分享者,消费者成为了可能。

Social Media有哪些形式呢?wiki上也有丰富的交代,其中推特和脸谱最为突出,并且在刚刚突尼斯和埃及的历史进程中扮演了重要角色。国家是需要控制媒体的,大众的思想需要有效的维护,社会化网络,社会化媒体扩大了信息的传播性,透明性,必将成为媒体研究者新的重要课题。

作为搜索引擎或者相关研究的人员,Social Media孕育着哪些机会呢?

(1)信息的分享,产生可以由每个网民发起,因此可以收集大量的体验性,评价性的观点类信息,这是非常有价值的。

(2)厌倦官方新闻的人们更喜欢一些来自“民间”的新闻,生活化的,百姓自选的新闻,Reddit这类社会化新闻,或者一些新闻热点类聚合新闻,这种在普通新闻上,增加了若干处理的新闻获得了多的关注。

(3)统计性信息,我们不可能看所有新闻,和领导一样喜欢看简报,如何将信息处理得更简洁,更有效,更有数据性,真实性必将是一大趋势。

社会化媒体的定义

Social media are media for social interaction, using highly accessible and scalable communication techniques. Social media is the use of web-based and mobile technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogue. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein also define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, which allows the creation and exchange of user-generated content."[1] Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media (CGM). A common thread running through all definitions of social media is a blending of technology and social interaction for the co-creation of value.

社会化媒体和工业媒体的区别:

  1. Reach - both industrial and social media technologies provide scale and enable anyone to reach a global audience.
  2. Accessibility - the means of production for industrial media are typically owned privately or by government; social media tools are generally available to anyone at little or no cost.
  3. Usability - industrial media production typically requires specialized skills and training. Most social media does not, or in some cases reinvent skills, so anyone can operate the means of production.
  4. Recency - the time lag between communications produced by industrial media can be long (days, weeks, or even months) compared to social media (which can be capable of virtually instantaneous responses; only the participants determine any delay in response). As industrial media are currently adopting social media tools, this feature may well not be distinctive anymore in some time.
  5. Permanence - industrial media, once created, cannot be altered (once a magazine article is printed and distributed changes cannot be made to that same article) whereas social media can be altered almost instantaneously by comments or editing.
