The article attempt to define YouTube's cyberculture by describing a model of its user and by showing the ways of participation in this particular cyberspace. Author starts his research by mentioning the rick roll strategy as one of the major practices of 'using' the YouTube content. However the main part of the article is concentrating on the efforts to reveal YouTube as a cyberculture thanks to the analysis of Life in a Day production and its reception. And so, one of the crucial theories that constitute YouTube as an individual medium is the one explored by Richard Grusin. Grusin's thesis about the re-mediated and pre-mediated aspects of new media helps to understand the main idea of YouTube as a socio- technical proposition as well as Jan van Dijk's characteristic of the new media offers like fragmentarization of the cultural texts or its constant visualization. By referring to the Life in a Day project, author of the article is able to point out the basic determinants of YouTube's cyberculture by describing it as an example of digitalized bedroom culture and snack culture (both terms links with a specific tradition of thinking about the media consumers and consumption itself).

The vlogosphere is a new phenomenon of the 21st century, emerging in the Slovak linguistic and cultural environment. In the presented article, we focus on the Slovak sphere of video blogs (vlogs) as a genre of digital media and a form of communication between the vlogger and his audience. We characterize a video blog as an oral internet genre in the form of an audio-visual recording, published through an online video portal. The purpose of which is the self-presentation of the protagonist, his own thoughts, opinions, interests and activities, or skills in an attractive and original form on a regular or episodic basis. We consider it important to focus on the key features of new media which fundamentally affect the ways of communicating through vlogs.

This paper discusses how negative stereotypes, cultural conflicts and tensions related to age and generational membership are used in election campaigns. The social media are presented here as a venue where the political values are discursively paired with age and generational membership and perpetuate risks of an increase in ageism and generational conflict in symbolic universes. It presents a case study of YouTube video political campaigning and Facebook site commentaries to draw a picture of negative connotations used to build the “we” versus “them” generational categories which may result in further deepening the ageist moods in Czech society. It further shows, how these discursive practices may influence the perception of intergenerational relations in our society, but it also argues that they may have only limited influence over the actual behaviour of both younger and older in elections and political representations. The conclusion calls for deeper understanding of connections between generational conflict, age, and voting behaviour.
