What is the media?

The media is the media that spreads all kinds of information.

The media can be private institutions or official institutions. Communication channels include paper (newsprint, magazines), sound (radio), video (television, movies) and modern network (computer video).

The first media:

It is one of the traditional original media to receive each other's information by direct, simple and intuitive interactive ways such as gestures, semaphores and bonfires. Its characteristics are intuitive and fast, but it is greatly limited by natural conditions, such as weather, light and natural obstacles.

The second kind of media:

Including letters, paintings, words, symbols, printed matter and photographic works. In this way of information exchange, the receiver of information relies on visual sense to receive information, and the sender of information begins to use certain communication facilities and tools.

The third kind of media:

Both the sender and the receiver of information must use communication facilities. This kind of media includes telephone, records, movies, radio, television, mobile phone communication and so on.

The fourth media:

Internet media is classified as the fourth kind of media alone because its media mode and information carrier are different from the third kind of media.

In the traditional sense, the use of media has certain time and space restrictions, but as long as anyone who has contacted the fourth kind of media knows, the flexibility and mobility of online media are beyond the reach of other media. Not limited by region and time, it can be used anywhere in the first time, and its convenience is obvious to all. It is also the main development platform of the future media.
