5 New Media Blogs to NOT MISS!







SMART ONLINE SUCCESS
I get Garin's updates every single morning and I always look forward to reading every one! He always has new content posted and its always interesting! From posts for beginner bloggers, motivating tips for success to LinkedIn professionals promoting themselves or trying to optimize themselves for the job search! One of the greatest hings about Garin Kilpatric's blog is that he always takes the time to answer questions from his followers whether it's tweeted to him or in a comment on the blog itself! The look of the blog is blah, very flat and kinda boring to look at so it isn't the most aesthetically appealing but focus on the wisdom and the advice and you won't be sorry! 


10,000 WORDS
AWESOME BLOG! Features real news and great tips on New Media; tips on integrating new networks into your business, tips for aspiring journalists and great new applications and their projected impact on the online community. 



MASTERS OF MEDIA
Prob my Favorite Blog of the Day! Written and compiled by several New Media Graduate students at the University at Amsterdam currently being trained on the newest media, sharing, networks and marketing techniques to give the articles a contemporary and up to date take on everything New Media. The blog articles are obviously submitted as an assignment with a general context or question to be answered (kinda like mine!) but are all listed together so you can get a variety of takes on the same issue from very different writers! 


MEDIASHIFT
So, they are a little liberal...This Blog has everything!!  Produced by PBS and written by hundreds of "citizen journalists" this blog puts out EVERYTHING new media; podcasts, transmedia, social media, marketing, digital education, info on new careers in new fields and how to get in, and their "Daily Must read" suggestions will get you lost for hours! They touch on everything, including the especially critical questions that everyone is afraid to ask like "who owns all of the photos and data I upload on my social networks?" But perhaps most importantly they provide an very up to the minute take on new media in and their effect on current events which is the most critical responsibility of New Media; 


MASHABLE
If you don't know MASHABLE by now, your welcome! Mashable is everything and anything all in one place! News on current events, business, sports, news, entertainment, politics and yes...NEW MEDIA! Explore Mashable and use this blog to steer you to the questions you didn't know you had. Stay up to date on the newest sites, apps, social network news and subscribe to their HOW TO's!
