SOCIAL MEDIA VS NEW MEDIA

Social media and new media are related, but not identical concepts. Social media refers to platforms that allow users to create, share, or exchange information and content with others. Examples include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn. New media, on the other hand, refers to the use of digital technology, such as the internet and smartphones, to create, distribute, and consume content.

This can include everything from traditional media forms like online news articles, podcasts and streaming video to interactive platforms like virtual reality, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence. In short, social media is a specific category of new media, one that is centered around user-generated content and social interaction.
