創出支援に注力している副編集長のmaskinッス。 いわゆる人と人とつなぐという意味での “メディア” は、いわずもがな変容を続けています。大きな特徴は、一方通行の発信のみに留まらず、各ソーシャルメディアとの連携が不可欠になり、さらにはメディアそのものが何らかの機能性を持っていることにあると感じています。 とはいえ、何がどう機能しどういう構図になっているのか市場全体像が見えにくいということもあり、実験的にマトリックス図を作成し初めてみました。 ソーシャルメディア成長の鍵は「小さな対話」 まずは日本国内の状況を表現しようとしてスタートしていますが、マルの大きさが現状とずれているなど表現が統一できてない部分もありますが、横軸は「ブログやTwitterのような一般に発信するもの」ー「家族や友人とのやりとり」を定義、縦軸にはそれぞれの「対話」や「コミュニケーション」の頻度を現わしています。対話には

Amazon(s amzn) CTO Werner Vogels had some words of wisdom Thursday for IT customers: “You should keep your providers on their toes every day.

This is clear hack of the Matrix if we've ever seen one. In the video above, YouTube user Brusspup shares an experiment with sound and water. He first plays a 24hz sine wave towards a stream of water and records it using a camera set to 24 frames per second.

For public figures, the digital age means one thing: a 24-7 rolling press conference. Think about it.
