“connect and collaborate” rather than “command and control”

7. Characteristics of Social Media
• Participatory: It blurs the line between producer and
consumer, media and audience.
• Open and Democratic: It encourages comments, voting
and sharing of information. For this reason it is seen as
authentic and trustworthy.
• Conversational: Two (or more) way conversation rather
than one-directional broadcast. Is personal, specific, and
engaging.
• Communal: Supports formation, growth & strength of
communities around a particular shared interest.
• Connected: Thrives on being connected, not territorial and
proprietary. “Contact sport” not “spectator sport”.
