P2P

File sharing has become an integral part of business practice. This refers to the ability to transmit files from one computer to another over a network or the Internet. One commonly used file sharing software is Dropbox. This is useful in the accounting industry because clients can save their bank statements and other financial documents to Dropbox and the accountant can easily see them once they have the login information. P2P file sharing is the process of sharing and transferring digital files from one computer to another. It is an easier way to read or watch digital content like books or movies. The article, "Content producers should take advantage of P2P, not fear it", explains how a P2P site called The Pirate Bay helped make a film called Steal This Film popular. With the help of small blog sites, this film was able to "reach more then 2m downloads and an estimated 3m viewers in 18 months since the film's release."

Next New

With the media constantly evolving each year, it's hard to wonder what is next. One of the latest technology that is slowly becoming popular is virtual reality. It is easy to see how this will become a big part of our future and future innovations. This will also change the way new media will be communicated to the mass audience. In movies that takes place in the future, we have seen communication with media through holograms. One movie that comes to mind is I, Robot. We see buildings have holograms of the current news on the lobby. I can envision this happening with twitter or instagram where everyones tweet or post is popping up and companies can easily see this. This can be helpful for companies that are coming up with a new product because they can get quick opinion from their followers. This can also lead up to a new media that is based on polls and surveys for all types of businesses. Each profile will tell the type of person someone is which will help the business by diversifying the type of followers they have and they can anticipate the feedback they will get on a future product.
