back flow

Spanish translation: reflujo / retorno

Social Sciences - Anthropology
English term or phrase: back flow
An alternative to this one-way model has been developing momentum over the last few years. Simple, social, end-user control tools (blogs 4, wikis 5, tagging and social bookmarking 6, podcasting 7, video logging 8) are affording new methods of information connection and back-flow to the original source. Feedback is more common in media and advertising than in education.
