一邊看電視選秀節目，一邊用手機發微博評論，這種場景大概很多人都經歷過吧。在智能時代，眼前擺著兩個以上屏幕，并隨時互通信息已經是司空見慣的了。這種情形在英語里叫做media meshing。
Media meshing is the activity of using hand-held electronic devices (e.g. mobile phones, tablet computers) to make comments or read about a TV program at the same time as watching it.
Media meshing指拿著手機或平板電腦等掌中設備，一邊看電視節目，一邊在這些設備上對節目發表評論或查看相關花絮，即“媒體結合”。
Media meshers are people who use wireless connections and the handheld devices at their disposal to enhance their viewing experience.
通過掌中設備和無線網絡來提升電視節目觀看體驗的人就叫media mesher。
The term media meshing first appeared around 2005, but hit the spotlight in the summer of 2013, when UK telecommunications regulator Ofcom published a report revealing that one in four British adults regularly use a tablet or other device so that they can comment or read information about the program they're watching. An alternative expression often used to refer to the same concept is second screening. (Source: macmillandictionary.com)
Media meshing這個詞最早出現在2005年左右，不過真正被人們注意到卻是在2013年夏天，英國通信監管機構Ofcom發布報告稱，每四個英國成年人中就有一個人在看電視時會用平板電腦或其他設備發表評論或閱讀相關信息。描述這一狀況的另一個說法是second screening（第二屏幕）。
