Internet contemporaneity - hybrid future?
Blogging, Philosophy, Internet 6th August, 2008
The year is 2008 - obviousness. Almost all of us actively using the Internet. You can tell more for most of us force-free access to a global network of computers connected together does not make sense to at least have a completely different meaning.
The above statement seems to us a matter of course. Not until the end, however, realize the consequences.
A few years ago about who is benefiting from the network is said to be the Internet - today the term it seems to be outdated. Obsolete stems from the fact that you attribute the Internet today are almost all (this is no longer anything unique or basic as it was still such as in 2000). Today the problem of restrictions on access to the network longer appears mainly in the context of speed limits of the possible link or transfer (in the case of GSM operators). Although the Estonia still far from us but we have no one does not question the merits of investment in information infrastructure.
A few years ago the company, which was present in the network was obviously greater chance of occurrence in the market than one that for example, no use of the benefits of Internet marketing. Today the company, which is not available in the network is completely backward (of course there are some exceptions).
Quite recently quite often you can read about the "addiction" to use the Internet - the consequences too long przesiadywania at the monitor. Today, such articles and information media are extremely rare. Given the growing dependence of almost all spheres of life, from the Internet make such a determination at the second of us nałogowcem.
Today: rest on your network, establish new friends, fall in love, you're doing your shopping, we learn, work, frustrujemy, acquiring business partners, customers. I mentioned a few forms of modern hybrids, which consists of: Man and the Internet.
In bilogii:
Hybrid (hybrid, hybrids) - individual emerged from the intersection of two parental organisms belonging to different taxa (breeds, varieties, subspecies and even species).
In this context, using the wording Recital hybrid may be treated as abuse. In fact, human hybrid is a metaphor for the modern man. But at the end metaforze?
A man Marshall McLuhan gave the foundations for a new scientific field called media ecology
Assumptions of this field to present are as follows:
1) the nature of reality konceptualizacji is dependent on biological and technical factors and from the system of codes used to present the information.
2) measures used to encode and transmit information are not neutral and are fundamentally affect the perception of its contents
3), therefore, that human culture is directly dependent upon the processes of communication, a change in the pattern of communication have serious ideological and epistemological implications for the ecology of cultures.
4) regardless of the emergence of new means of communication, language still plays a key role in connecting people and that is why the media ecology should be done by him above all. Source Wikipedia
What most McLuhan argues that the media are a natural prolongation of man in space:
Mechanical era gave us the possibility to extend our body in space, and electronics gives the possibility of human nervous system to the whole planet earth - says Marschall McLuhan. (Source matysoss.w.interia.pl)
What is it all seems to be the most significant consequences of the development of an information era. McLuhan in his theory argues that society seeks to epoko disappearance of print and visual development era.
Is it in the near future may come to call a man with machines - not only in a metaphorical sense, and subtle information? Are we biologically connected to any knowledge that ever has been gained? Are a few decades from now we will be able to use "backupowania" our brain? Transfer of experiences, thoughts, through specific ports that will be in our body? It seems to be the extremely unlikely - as will really see maybe in the near future.

Interesting but not to think that we were in some way connected to the network, machines permanently. Although other third party have practically this is true, because our various data are collected. Banks, credit card, internet etc ... but not directly soot.

Yeah ... You are currently on the network are the data collected about us ... Assuming that one day create artificial intelligence and will be able to be used in a manner which so far no one did not dream.
