A suggestion for a new type of "New Media" that doesn't currently exist would be a fully integrated augmented reality contact lens with the capability to communicate and have all the essential functions of social media and networking. While I do not have an answer on how this is feasible in the near future, I do know of products like Google glass that aims to do similar things. The idea is more along the lines of wearable technology that is not so much of an inconvenience as glasses and watches but something more integrated with a person like an embedded chip and contacts. I think augmented reality is making big leaps year after year, and it might not be too farfetched of an idea in the future. I think it'll be very cool to be able to control things like receiving messages and calls with your eyes, taking pictures and recording what you see without having to take a phone or camera out.
