Looking at Multimedia




The above link will connect you to the article "South Africa Redoubles Efforts Against AIDS"


The one thing I would really like to discuss about this article is what we have been discussing in class. It is one of my favorite things and the new step for journalism. It is about inserting links, video, photo, audio to online articles. Online journalism has completely taken a turn to make interactivety easier on the user. One thing I liked about this article was the links on words such as South Africa and AIDS. These links to other pages occured throughout the article, including names and other locations. Once you click on these links you are able to find out more about the subject. The link to South Africa gives you the general information and other new stories that involve South Africa. Another thing I like about online journalism is the clarity of images. Photojournalism can now thrive on the internet because the photos are able to be seen with clarity rather than the fuzzyness that newspaper dots give the photographs. An example from the article is shown above.
