For the general media
Social Media is the buzz phrase of the web today, however, request either professionals the web as "Social Media" really is and get two different answers, in fact, social media means different things to different people including the largest group of all users.
Users are bringing change to the website by the way your web surfing habits are evolving. This is leading to new and creative ways to meet the changing demands of how information and content is searched and used.
Social Defined media
The World Wide Web was conceived as a medium for exchange of information between users, however, is only the advent of social media innovations has become a reality for ordinary users as individuals and groups, including businesses. Media Social is not defined by "what", but more for "making" - is enabling anyone to share information on whether upload to the website to others or to view and download content for your own use.
Having said that we will be looking at what different parts of the media social do in practice so you can grasp the concept.
The currency of the Internet is the exchange of content and this includes the written word, but also share photos and images, video footage and audio tracks. Consider the journal entry, vacation photos, favorite music and favorite TV show or movie, although users can now make and share their own content and not just commercial development and distribution of music and film.
Web 2.0
Web 2.0 is synonymous with Social Media and again opinions differ widely as to what it means. Web 1.0 generally refers to the underlying technology that allows the Internet to work and function at a basic level, HTML, for example, the code for making web pages. Web 2.0 refers to the tools and developments that are less concerned technical behind the scenes "stuff" and more to the application by users of the sites themselves. This is particularly true when it comes to how people are putting the World Wide Web for their own applications to share information and interact with each other, and the entire community Internet.
Social Media Sites in Action

Users write and upload their entries along with other pages and web links as a practice has developed so has the ability to upload and post pictures, audio and video for others to see.
A blog has the ability to reach all Internet users, blogging is authorized users the ability to reach large numbers people around the world and has been adopted by many organizations and companies, as well as a means to convey your message to the market.
More blogging platforms popular are WordPress and Blogger, although many websites have their own blog integrated herein.
The Blogosphere "refers to the community blogs of bloggers and readers, and blogs themselves interconnected and has generated a need for specialized search services like Technorati, to help users to find information as much as search engines like Google and Yahoo do.
A blog is the development of Vlog (video recording contraction) which is simply load your recorded spoken and video to your blog.
Microblogging
Microblogging enables multimedia communication over very short messages similar to a blog, but in a very truncated. The most popular service is Twitter, which has come to dominate this space and is a form of instant messaging, but to a much wider audience than just one-on-one or conference calls. Imagine a room full of people talking and you have the ability to dive in and out of conversations at will, and to initiate further discussions or make an announcement that will be picked up by others if they so wish.
The Online social networks
Currently dominate the Internet users' time and challenging the search engines have access to user information. Social networking provides a virtual replica of the current real-world social networks in cyberspace, with the added benefits of recovering connections lost due to distance and time as the maintenance of social relations in near real time regardless of the distance between users - and mostly for free.
In addition, online social networks offer the possibility to instantly share content with an individual, group, or the public content can be generated by user images, photographs, videos and thoughts in writing or they can share common interests in a product, a personality, a cause or a commercially produced piece content. Other tools are typically provided, such as instant messaging and chat deviations, as well as online games and entertainment.
Online social networks are fluid and dynamic and the space is dominated by the big sites like MySpace and Facebook, although there are many other networks focus on interest groups specific, such as lifestyle, social activity or hobby. LinkedIn is the network's most successful specialty line of service for business users maintenance and development of professional networks. Online social networks also appeal to all ages and demographics but different regional tastes, dominate the U.S. MySpace, Facebook in Europe and Orkut in Brazil and India, while older users tend to favor younger users of Facebook and MySpace.
Multimedia
The demand for sharing images, music and video has led to the creation of many sites to satisfy, there are several important sites operating in this space, including:
- YouTube - A video sharing site owned by Google, which dominates this space in terms user traffic;
- Flickr - a photo sharing site as an online photo album where images can be stored for use elsewhere on the web, and allow the exchange and
- Hulu - a place where TV shows and movies are available at no cost to the viewer.
Wikis
A wiki is a collection of web pages created and modified by users and are often used for collaborative projects where teams of users to create a resource for their own communities and the world at large. By far the most popular wiki Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia created by users and groups, but wikis are also used as corporate intranets and knowledge-sharing groups and bringing different sets of skills and experiences to influence member area.
Web Page Editors
The networking site carries with it certain common barriers for users who wish to publish web content - you must purchase and register a domain name and then create and publish pages Web - all of which costs time and money.
Web page editors provide an easy and free to create your own web pages using their own platform for you to operate within. You can create text, upload images and video that will have a web address and a link to the page and the items contains (including links from other websites) to another site that the user wants. This creates a huge database of user generated content that can search and access to other users or restricted to a private group.
Examples of these sites include Squidoo, Xanga and Zimbio.
Social bookmarking and social news
Social bookmarking is a method to identify the web pages of interest to a user and then share that "tags" to other users; other interested users can then browse the website and also make your own assessment of whether the page is relevant or not - a form of voting or Popularity Contest web page.
There are two main sites in this space, Del.icio.us (Delicious) and Stumbleupon although there are many different target stakeholders.
A similar system is used by Digg and Reddit on emerging news articles on the web with users voting one item up or down, the more votes a party receives, the higher ranks which increases the exposure and the opportunity to receive further votes until it is superseded for other inputs more newsworthy as determined by the votes cast user community in near real time.
