Abstract

We analyze the content of Spanish digital newspapers, using an inquiry form which evaluates general aspects, links, multimedia and social networks. Media appear to be quite reticent about sharing data. One can notice a preference for multimedia contents in news coverage and as junction in the continuously growing hypertextual context. The social networks are more and more massively successful and mainly use tools as microblogging, blogging and commentating. The most popular social netwoks are Twitter, Facebook, Menéame and Google+. They consider the reader as the center of the message. There also is a regular feedback with him and his posts are examined and compared. No clear differences can be observed between digital newspapers from home and abroad.
