After thinking for a while, a new type of media would be pretty hard to come up with. If it were that easy and possible, I would be a millionaire right now. But, a new type of media that does not exist right now is some sort of virtual type of communication. Whereas people would communicate through voice or video online but if there was some sort of way to communicate through an online virtual where you are programmatically there where it seems real. Sort of like virtual reality, being able to communicate with someone from across the world in just seconds.
How twitter discussions and blackboard discussions are compare is that they are both spaces where you can communicate with people for whatever reasons. On twitter, you could communicate whatever you want to since it has a plethora of things to talk about whereas blackboard is more so related to the school activities. Asides from that, they are both used to get concise and precise information quickly. For example on twitter, the newest fashion releases are posted there and on blackboard the latest homework, exams, grades are given there.
I agree with you. I always think that new media is hard to come up with but then someone always ends up coming out with something I never knew I needed and my mind is blown. Ideas seem far fetched until someone makes it a reality. You sound like you have a good idea on your hands. Be the change you wish to see in the world. -Gandhi.
