News has been the staple of the print business for centuries...a far cry from the first print press. Since the world-wide-web came alive, the dead knell of the newspaper industry was pretty much announced.
Topix and Bing, and other search engines were first to mark their territory and carve out a share...and soon they stepped into news aggregation, a natural 'next-step' in their development.
Today, one will not need to spend a minute flicking by way of a newspaper, since the news headlines in on the web along with just a finger click away.
Some services nonetheless provide audio news!
Such has been the story across the world this 1 wonders why it has brought so long for the world to latch onto the newest trend press wire. Never the less, this indicates in a few years, or decades, particularly due to the 'save the forest' campaigns all around the planet, print press may be retired to the annals of history....fodder for historians and scholars...but very little more.
In its place, an easier, quicker, simpler, and more accessible and free system of consumption: online newspapers!
The near future is not totally grim notwithstanding this, as print industry leaders start the ball rolling to understand the significance of web-based presence for their brands. While they adopt more aggressive online marketing, pr and advertising approaches they'll adapt with the newest trends and hopefully, carve out a new model for their flagships.
Having said that, it won't be described as a monopoly on information ever again. What with the bloggers and citizen reporting taking root. The Iran elections to the fore a modern phenomenon...citizen contribution in journalism, or in a nutshell citizen journalism. Iranians send images and videos throughout the worldwide web and gave use of millions who wanted to know that which was happening in the 'now'...something the print media would have round to after editors and journalist had polished off their articles, edited out any unfriendly footage and doctored some of the material to place across 'the proper message' ;.
The clear presence of bloggers also complicates things for the old model of doing things in the news headlines industry. No longer do people need certainly to take what the editor and his sponsors want them to hear...no longer are people forced to hold back, and no longer is the proper to regulate information dissemination the only real privilege of ruling dictators and parties...anyone can be quite a newspaper, anyone can be quite a journalist, and anyone, can share his opinion.
