We at SocioApps attended the BBC’s Mediafutures event at Alexandra Palace. A slew of talks about the future direction of media (new and old ensued). Some notes below.
The History and Venue:
Media Futures is an anuual, one day event organised by the BBC looking at the trends and dynamics of current media (both new and old) of which Facebook development and developement for other social networks plays a part. We here at SocioApps went along. The event was held at London’s Alexandra Palace
The Presentations:
Our Conclusions:
There were a bunch of wide randing discussions about what the popularity of media like Facebook and Myspace actually meant and whether there was still room for growth of theses of if a high water mark had been reached.
There was also a wide ranging discuss of what constituted the media. Current day tech allows any memeber of the public to become part of the media. With a simple Blog, anyone can self-publish.
