“…This hypothesis, known as the politics-as usual or normalization thesis (Margolis & Resnick, 2000), predicts that, because of their increased resources, major parties and candidates will have a significantly greater web presence and are more likely to engage in a sophisticated use of web resources than minor parties and candidates. Advocates of the normalization hypothesis contend that as competition increased in the online arena, many political parties were forced to enhance their website’s appearance by increasing their investments in updated content and advanced presentation technologies (Druckman, Kifer, & Parkin, 2007; Spyridou & Veglis, 2011), thus giving resource-rich parties and candidates an advantage and maintaining the traditional power-play.…”

This Web 2.0 campaigning era is characterized by sophisticated campaign tools that are used for “informing, targeting advertising, recruiting, engaging, and fundraising” (Spyridou & Veglis, 2011, p. 138), particularly via online social networking activities (Spyridou & Veglis, 2011; Strandberg, 2013). This represents a shift from traditional Web 1.0 technologies, where the web was used mainly as a publishing medium on static websites and a one-way communications platform (Carlson & Strandberg, 2008; Strandberg, 2013).…”

Θα πρέπει να τονιστεί ότι δημοκρατικό είναι[172],[173] το να μπορούν οι αναγνώστες να εκφραστούν ακόμη και αρνητικά γιατί όχι και με ένα σύστημα σχολιασμού διεξάγοντας συνομιλίες[174], κάτι που μπορεί να παρέχει ανατροφοδότηση και να αυξήσει την κυκλοφορία του δικτυακού τόπου.
