changed remarkably. We use to have and even now had hard wired telephone lines which
is used for our daily usage but since the introduction of mobile phones everything seems
to be in effective and on the go method. The truth is any brand or individual can be a
publisher. The mass communication in which we understand is all about the printing
press and moved on into greater leaps. The growth of mobile and social media
consumption is staggering and ensure elements of changes in the method of brands target
their messaging and reaching out to the audience.

We used to have hard copied of newspapers and magazines for reading and there would
be advertisement of jobs, social services, education opportunities and many more but all
these elements or concept in shrink into the fingertips of ICT where it would be available
in the mobile phones, IPad, and lap tops. Many social website which deliberate news,
social media services and also have almost everyone to be always on the go and all
information and services on their fingertips.

With the ICT on high range of usage and super high tech there are many aspect of media
and mass communications are involved.These would be from the aspect of move
making,shopping and even many banking services and even work is specially needs the
usage of technology and ICT in wide aspects of work and daily life.These would be

INTERNET AND ELECTRONIC MEDIA:

III) Communication technology is not the end point but to supply and preserve
information and content, By seeking advantage of latest development in the aspect of
technology it will definitely demonstrate how the latest technology has enhanced the
capacity of electronic media to fulfil their role. Electronic media has various important
aspect of delivering news,coverage around the world and creating many opprotunites for
its users.But this depends on time of delivery where it would take maybe a day or two to
pass on the needs but Internet has various advantages which is:

Super-Fast-Messages,media communications,news ,adveritsiment,emails

and other related stuffs would be passed on immediately after the click of a

button.

Easy Access and user friendly. Almost 6 billion people around the globe

are internet users and basically it is user friendly and useful.

Internet covers more than a media as it has various choice of delivering

the news such as real and live video captured news, events, disaster updates and

many more. Media meanwhile would just have the coverage of the photos and

some info which find the user not interesting.
