’The Mission is to Keep this Industry Intact’: Digital Transition in the Japanese Newspaper Industry

The focus of this paper is the digital transition in major Japanese newspapers that sell millions of copies per day. By digital transition we refer to the shift to publishing content on digital platforms – in this case the shift from print to online and mobile media. Japan is globally one of the most important newspaper markets with the world’s largest daily newspapers circulation-wise. The research focusing on the digital transition in Japanese newspapers and the implications of this shift has been hitherto almost non-existent. In the paper, the digital transition is examined by means of qualitative in-depth interviews with representatives from the Japanese leading newspapers. The conclusion based on the empirical analysis is that for the Japanese newspapers the most essential approach in coping with the digital transition is protecting the printed paper and treating the digital platforms as supplementary.Peer reviewe

A future of journalism beyond the objectivity-dialogue divide? : Hybridity in the news of entrepreneurial journalists

As pioneers of new ideas and practices, many entrepreneurial journalists spearhead the change of journalism towards hybridity. By applying appraisal theory, this article examines a hybrid of objectivity and dialogue in daily news articles by five entrepreneurial journalism outlets – Axios, MustRead, National Observer, The Skimm and the Voice of San Diego. For comparative purposes, a dataset from three legacy media outlets was also analysed. The results show that the entrepreneurial journalism outlets employ journalistic dialogue in otherwise stylistically objective news texts notably more often than do legacy media outlets. Dialogic registers provide subtle, non-partisan assessments of events and issues and make the news more informal. Such a hybrid form of journalism serves the functions of sense-making, establishing an interpersonal connection between ‘private’ audiences and ‘public’ news, and connecting journalism with fields outside of its core. By doing so, the hybrid journalism of entrepreneurial journalists offers a distinctive vision of the futures of news journalism.Peer reviewe

Sosiaalinen kuratointi verkossa: Mediasisältöjen sosiaalinen kulutus ja osallistava yleisöys

Artikkelin aiheena on yleisön rooli mediayhtiöitten tuottamien sisältöjen valikoijana ja jakelijana. Verkkoympäristö ja sosiaalisen median työkalut mahdollistavat sen, että yleisö pystyy helposti ja vaivattomasti – esimerkiksi linkkaamalla, twiittaamalla tai suosittelemalla – kertomaan tutuilleen tai seuraajilleen mielenkiintoisina ja merkityksellisinä pitämistään mediasisällöistä. Tästä toiminnasta käytetään käsitettä sosiaalinen kuratointi. Artikkelissa otetaan sosiaalinen kuratointi käsitteellisesti haltuun yleisö­ ja kulutustutkimuksen kontekstissa. Lisäksi selvitetään, millainen merkitys sosiaalisella kuratoinnilla on osallistavassa yleisöydessä. Teoreettisen osan tukena hyödynnetään suomalaisessa sanomalehdessä tehtyä haastattelututkimusta, jonka tulosten perusteella voi todeta, että yleisön harjoittamalla kuratoinnilla on lehden kannalta tärkeä rooli sisältöjen kulutuksessa sekä myös yleisön kiinnostusten ja agendan luotauksessa. Keskeinen johtopäätös artikkelissa on, että sisällöntuotanto ei ole hyödyllisin näkökulma ymmärtää yleisön roolia osallistavan yleisöyden leimaamassa mediaekosysteemissä, vaan muut osallistumisen muodot – sosiaalinen kuratointi kenties tärkeimpänä – ovat olennaisempia mediayhtiöille

Alat Pendeteksi Dan System Monitoring Kematangan Pada Pembuatan Tapai Singkong Berbasis Internet Of Things Menggunakan Website

The rapid development of technology makes many people vying to create a technology that utilizes the Internet of Things (IoT). One small example that has used IoT technology is a detection device and a maturity monitoring system in the manufacture of cassava tapai which can be monitored via the LCD and the website, so that in the tapai fermentation process the temperature in the room can be maintained and monitored properly. The fermentation process went well with the temperature study between 31-35 degrees Celsius. So a maturity detection tool was made in the manufacture of cassava tapai using Internet of Things (IoT) technology based on Nodemcu Esp8266 using a Dht11 sensor which is used to detect temperature and Mq3 is used to measure the alcohol content that occurs during the fermentation process. Nodemcu Esp8266 functions as a microcontroller and a Wi-fi module to connect to the internet which can be displayed in real time through the website. Testing is done by comparing the results of fermentation in the container made with the results of fermentation outside the container. The results of tool testing showed that tapai stored using a monitoring tool matured faster than tapai stored without using a monitoring tool, because the monitoring tool could control the temperature properly according to the conditions needed for fermentation
