Salford Launches MA in Social Media

Social Media has become a fashionable phrase. From blogs and webcams to citizen journalists a great deal of energy and enthusiasm informs debate around the empowering potential of such technologies. But as the concept gains ground there are some who begin to question whether social media represents more of the same.

Whatever the technology promises the content and the new generation of producers behind it will inevitably be co-opted back into the mainstream.  The evening will include a discussion on social media, to thrash out the meaning of this term and, in the process, engender a useful discussion in which guests can play their part.

Salford University has now launched an MA in Social Media.
