Clay Shirky End of audience 2009
social capital
the moment were living for is the largest increase in expressive capability
only 4 periods in the last 500 years media as changed enough
1. printers
2. telegraph, telephone
3. photos, recorded sound, movies
4. electromagnetic signal- tv and radio
media that is good at creating conversation is no good at creating groups
media that is good at creating groups is no good at creating conversation.
internet gives group and individual conversation
Internet becomes the carriage for all other media phone calls, text, tv, social media all carried by the internet, every media is next door to every other media.
audience can now be producers instead of just consumers
news stories are found from twitter before any official reports- news is reported live on twitter.
gives power to citizens
china is probably the best social manager in the world
people can interact with higher powers and create conversation with each other.
ametures are more than professionals
most media that is produced now is produced by ammetures

icons- computers, mobile phones, laptops, games console, internet and media outlets.
narrative- each teen has a different type of media addiction which affects their lives in different ways putting them at risk, making them loose out on life opportunities but also providing an outlet for expressing themselves.
characters- Ryan and ben 15 porn addicts, page 15 addicted social media and her phone- her addiction put her in an unsafe position with males because they stole her phone , Tobin addicted to video games kicked out of Oxford missed his opportunity because he didn't revise as much as he should have spend alternative time on games console , tom 15 came out on twitter and replaced real relationships with online relationship although his relationship seemed safe could potential cause a dangerous situation, social media made an easy outlet for him to express his true sexuality and made it easier to tell his parents and meet other people who share his sexuality. Each character very young had different experiences with media many resulted poor life choices or put them in danger in some way, were some positive effects of media such as outlets to express themselves- easier to be truthful behind a screen than in person.

Facts:
40/100 of teenagers spend more time with their friends online than in real life.
