New MediaFacebook - The average person has 130 friends, one person sends a link to a film trailer; there are 130 potential people clicking on that link, if only two other people post that link then that has risen to 390 and this may continue to rise. Youtube videos are a good example of this 'sneezing panda' has millions of views this is down to people sending the link or talking about it to their friends. This is why celebrities are on Facebook and twitter, if the link is continuously sent then it has the potential of reaching all 629,982,480 people!
Twitter hasn't got as many users, but if something is re tweeted then maybe 170,000,000 people will see it. Even this blog has the potential to start a new media chain reaction, with 5 followers, each of them with a few followers and if they blog about this > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2NwacUX2xo&feature=fvsr < then maybe eventually every user of blogger will see it. It hasn't even got to be advertising something, there are a lot of posts on facebook that have a message for soldiers or a disease, where they ask people to re post, this is just to create awareness, something New Media is very good at.
Well done you! :):):):):):):)
