>The Internet is now a part of the daily life of large numbers of people 
>throughout Europe and the developed world generally.  Now that the period 
>of Internet euphoria is a distant memory, we are in a clearer position to 
>begin to analyse the nature of the changes that are taking place as a 
>result of this new technology. Research shows that for many people, the 
>uses they make of the Internet overlap in important ways with the 
>historical functions of the mass media.
>
>
>
>The aim of this conference is to consolidate the work that is going on in 
>Europe and elsewhere in order to analyse in depth the key changes to the 
>media, and to suggest emerging paradigms for the communication industries.
>
>
>
>Abstract are invited for papers that focus on one of the following four 
>main themes:
>
>
>    * Media products: new news formats, new media languages, new forms of 
> interactive content
>    * Media producers: new professional skills, changes in training and 
> education, new careers patterns
>    * Organisations:  new business models, convergence of media 
> businesses, changing industrial structures
>    * Audiences:  changing relationships between media and society, the 
> impact of new media on the public, social uses of the new and old media.
>
