Re: Theos-World Internet idealism crushed

Dear Paul:

I am an eternal optimist. I believe that we are still in the early stages of the use of Internet and very hopeful of enormous changes to come which will affect the society world-wide. Most of the population of today grew up in pre-computer days. Today's youngsters are growing up in the Internet culture and they are the ones who are going to spearhead changes in communication and discourse in ways none of us could even imagine. So we may have to patiently wait and hope. As an aside, when one of the local firms was hiring a professional who just came of the college, the individual would not work for an employer who does not have high-speed Internet available at workplace. I also saw a writeup on how instant messaging is used in large companies to speed communication. So all pointers are in hopeful direction!!!
