1	Weblogs and the Technology Lifecycle: Context, Geek-Chic and Personal Community Milne, James M 16 March 2004 (has links) Weblogging is an Internet social practice that became known as a technology. This project investigated weblogging (blogging) as an example of a media technology that arose under particular historical circumstances. To investigate this, blogs were examined in detail, participant-observation was used to construct and run a blog, and practicing bloggers were interviewed. The study found that blogging, like all technology, originates within existing social practice (context); has a diffusion process that causes it to spread between people (Geek-Chic); and leads to certain social outcomes (Personal Community). This is seen as a general pattern for the lifecycle of technology, serving to argue the case that shifts in social practice lead to technology, not the other way around. blog mass media journalism virtual community mediascape American Studies Arts and Humanities

We want to look into the process that lies behind this huge intercontinental corporation. Through literature studies we present the mechanism’s that paved the way for MTV growing into the number one music channel of modern time. To investigate how MTV was received in Sweden, we analyse articles taken from databases providing us with essential information about how Swedish journalist’s debate the issue. To show an assumed development within the Swedish mediascape we are using two different time periods, the first represents the year 1993 through to 1995 and the second, 2000 through 2003. These time periods are also used within statistical research included in this paper. This part shows the differences between MTV and other music channels that are competitors in the Swedish mediascape. Altogether these parts helps us to bring out topics that hopefully gives answers to our main quandary – what kind of effect has MTV had on the Swedish mediascape?</p> Interdisciplinary studies Medialandskap Mediascape MTV musikvideo music video musik music musiktelevision music television television videor videos TVÄRVETENSKAP INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN
