Shigeru Miyagawa, a professor of linguistics and communication at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, argues in one of its courses the concept of Personal Media or Personal Media, " a media digital pop, incorporating interactivity into its design, which allows users not only consume media products, but also create . " This concept allows us to integrate the now famous Fotolog as a means of communication, both for analysis and for educational use. Some loose ideas about the format:
- is primarily phatic, users use it to keep in touch with people asynchronously, allowing it to maintain the connection but without going into further discussions, as would instant messaging system as messenger.
- It relies on the image, whether personal or not the dialogical usually predominates over the descriptive.
- is a place where prevailing playfulness and where he builds a "personality" through the collection and sharing data.
- It general use of language is anything but standard .
- also has a serious side; communities can generate, as was already shown in the march of the penguins .
To complete this introduction, Daniel Cyrano , Flickr user , community of amateur photography, exposes some interesting differences between this community and Fotolog.
