The Profound Effect of Technology on Media

New Technology: A report from BBC News

Key Term: Mass-amateurisation

Mass-amateurisation describes the effect of the power and voice given to the masses through the use of blogs, social networking and 'on the scene' news footage. The concept also refers to ability the mass has of carrying out tasks which would have previously only been undertaken by professional or skilled individuals, such as book and music publishing or recording and commenting on news events. The term 'amateur' reflects the fact that these tasks are often carried out without payment, making the need to employ or hire someone to carry out the task increasingly redundant.
