Young “prosumers” of the Internet, in mobile devices

Abstract

This essay is a theoretical analysis about young people and their reality as prosumers through mobile device technology. The ideas embodied here are the result of various approaches with authors that reflect their interest in new forms of communication and the codes that arise from it. We present a set of reflections related to the social impact generated by the condition of "prosumers" in virtual environments. We characterize young people from the perspective of Digital Natives, we study the components related to mobile devices, and their use in order to establish specific lines of analysis relevant to the entire academic community.
