Remediation is when something on one type of media is
re-created to but used on another type of media. For example, the news has been
found on newspapers for a long time. However, when the internet gained
popularity, the news was also posted on the web to make the information more
available for readers. This also allowed the news companies to enhance their
contact by adding much more interactivity and allows them to include more types
of content and use links to redirect the reader.
Remediation may take place for a variety of reasons, as
mentioned above, one reason is to take advantage of new developments to allow
the author to present their content in a much more efficient or interesting
way. Alternatively, it could be used as a way to create new content for new
forms of media which don’t yet have much content. Alternatively, a company may
choose to use a successful title and convert it to another media to provide a
whole new experience which users will still find some familiarity with.
