[Air-L] UPDATE: Glossary: new media & journalism

[Niels Hendriks]

Some days ago I sent a message to this list to ask for help in preparing a
course on the opportunities of new media for journalism students.

I wanted to create a glossary with relevant terms.

I've had some interesting suggestions (from a.o. Kevin Guidry, Jay Hauben,
Bertil Hatt & Martin Garthwaite. Thanks!). 

They told me to add:
SMS 
Flash mob/flash crowd - both linked to the mobile-idea
Meme
Reddit
OhMyNews
e-mail
listserv 
instant messaging
newsgroup
ftp - The idea is that you first learn on the 'old' technologies to fully
understand the importance and impact of the new ones.

>From their suggestions I did not include domain squatting (not relevant -
though Kevins argument that this term serves as a starting point for a
broader discussion on the importance of domain names, is relevant.); Social
network Software(I think this is covered by other terms); netizen (by
creating a separate term for internet users, you are in fact marginalizing
the people on the internet. In my opinion 'everyone' is using the net) & the
triptic Journalist / Expert / Active Reader (they are covered in a separate
lesson dealing with the produser-idea).

But maybe I should include them...

Any more suggestions?
