New media, with their websites, blogs and social networks, play an increasingly relevant role in contemporary world. Information flows online on the Internet, contributing to democratizing communication – be it in in the revolts in the Arab world, in Spain’s “indignados” revolution, in cables published by Wikileaks or in the elections agitating several countries. Cultural production and entertainment get a greater reach in the web. Internet becomes part of the daily life of billions.
