                          What is Memedia?


























                                                                                               20201 Ko, Eun-jin

                              Thanks to the popularization of the Internet, individuals who have gradually grown
                            their influence in various social circles are now raising their voices in the media
                            sector, and the so-called memedia era has begun. This is because anyone can
                            produce and process information and express their opinions freely without any
                            particular barriers of entry. Since the popularization of the Internet, one-person media
                            has rapidly increased with the advent of blogs, mini-homepages, and Twitter. These
                            community changes have accelerated the community phenomenon of horizontal
                            structuring in regards to the status of the sender and receiver. The emergence of
                            memedia soon marked the era of revolution that led to changes in the network
                            structure of communication. In particular, the spread of personal digital devices, such
                            as smartphones and tablet PCs, has allowed access to the media through various
                            channels without having to go through traditional sources.
                              Memedia is the most personalized service on the Internet, and it is used as
                            a concept that encompasses image-based services such as mini-homepages,
                            information-based services such as blogs, and social media sites such as Twitter and
                            Facebook. It is true that the functionality of memedia is still lacking, but it is also true
                            that one-person media is leading into a smooth communication culture based on a
                            participatory and open Internet environment.
