The Question:
What do you love about the Internet?
|
- It's always there to greet me when I
come home at night.
|
- I love the thing that makes it work,
which is the complete lack of any rules. The hand wringers fretted that
business would destroy this freewheeling spirit - they were wrong. When
you're bored of the Internet, you really are bored of life
|
- I love the ability of Internet technology
to integrate with and assimilate just about every technology.
|
- The Internet is growing all the time
as a rich source of innovative services, but most importantly it levels
the playing field in business and education. It's great because it's
changing the way we do everything.
|
- That it's borderless, nontoxic, you don't
have to cut down trees to write on it. It also crosses all the boundaries
of age, sex, religion and geography.
|
- It's an amazing creative outlet for personal
expression and individual empowerment.
|
- I love the way it breaks down barriers
between people and countries, creating a true global village. The ease
of access to information, opportunities and help which would previously
have taken a huge amount of time and trouble to track down. The way
it puts real choice into the hands of ordinary folk. The commercial
opportunities it opens up to a whole new breed of entrepreneurs with
ideas - sure, some of them make mistakes, but who, especially in the
early stages of any of the world's great leaps forward, hasn't made
mistakes?
|
- It's like a global strip mall with fascinating
shops every step of the way
|
- The rules still have not been set in
stone. No one has all the answers and there are still a lot of people
involved in the industry who are interested in cooperating and helping
each other out.
|
- How often do you get to be present at
the birthplace of a parallel universe.
|
- The bringing together of interest groups
and like-minded people who would never have met otherwise.
|
- I love the opportunities it gives people
for individual expression in terms of design - it's a far more flexible
medium than TV, radio or print journalism.
|
- It's a way of connecting the most special
commodity - the wisdom of human beings
