In the wake of increasing internet use over the past ten or twenty years there has also, not surprisingly, been an increase in so-called online media.

These can be net-based versions of existing media such as TV-stations and newspapers, but there are also digital social networks such as for instance Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc.

Keynote speakers on online media take a closer look at these matters and these questions.
