“…These mobile devices allow people to exploit gaps in their daily routines when/where other more traditional channels of communication are unavailable, inappropriate or inconvenient in order to garner news and information. The diffusion of these mobile channels during the 1990s was dramatic (Arceneaux, 2005) and has grown exponentially since then, particularly for the young (Kvavik et al, 2004). As more consumers are becoming connected through these channels, concurrently, the technologies that support them are growing significantly in sophistication with regard to speed, reliability, accessibility and affordability (Bohlin et al, 2007).…”

The recent growth of mobile channels has provided steadily increasing opportunities for individuals to access news and other mass-mediated content. Media ecological perspectives argue that the introduction of such new technologies can shift the existing biases in prevailing social systems. According to one ecological perspective, the theory of the niche, when new media technologies are successfully introduced into a domain, displacement may occur unless some alteration is made to the resource base. Interstices are conceptualized as the gaps in the routines of media users between scheduled activities. Through the use of a diary method, participants logged access to news using a variety of communication technologies, including mobile channels. Results indicated that traditional media occupied traditional niches with little evidence of displacement, while mobile channels occupied a new niche: access in the interstices.

“…Dimmick et al (2010) highlighted this advantage of mobile devices by using the concept of interstices. Nevertheless, as Arceneaux (2005) argued, the spatial flexibility of mobile devices actually increases the time availability of media usage, and the defying of space limitation can also be interpreted as the defying of time limitation. In this sense, mobile devices transform people's concept of time and soften their schedules (Kelly 2009).…”

“…Several previous studies suggested that mobile media defy time and space limitations, and, hence, increase time availability for various media consumption activities (e.g., Arceneaux 2005;Dimmick et al 2010). This study further explored the utilization of this increased time availability on mobile media.…”

Mobile news consumption and political news interest: A time budget perspective

This study explores mobile news consumption from a time budget perspective. Time constraint is a major factor influencing people's news consumption, but it has not been examined specifically in the previous studies. Because mobile media can exploit the time gaps when other media are inappropriate or inconvenient to use, they have a unique capacity to increase the available time for news consumption. Data for the empirical analysis were collected in a random sample mail survey with 253 respondents in the Midwest United States from September to November 2012. The results indicated that mobile news users have significantly longer work time and shorter disposable time (tighter time budget) than non-users; people with tight time budget are more likely to have more mobile news applications and spend more time on mobile news than are people with loose time budget; and people who are interested in political news spend more time on mobile news than do people who are not.

“…Nekateri novinarji pa so to prakso zaradi takojšnje dostopnosti do informacij pozitivno ovrednotili. Stališče o nesprejemljivosti prakse pisanja in objavljanja tvitov je podobno stališču o uporabi mobilnih telefonov, ki je spremenila način vedenja ljudi v javnosti (Arceneaux 2005). Ker sta Arceneaux in Schmitz Weissova (2010) analizirala stališča le časopisnih novinarjev, in še to le v prvih treh letih delovanja Twitt erja, smo v študiji skušali odgovoriti na vprašanje: Kakšno je stališče novinarjev/urednikov vplivnih slovenskih medijev do uporabe Twitt erja v novinarstvu?…”
