Module 5

How might the metaphor of an ‘ecology’ impact on the way you think about, understand or use the Internet?

It is a great metaphor. It has helped me to settle. It is accurate because that is the feeling I get when I am involved with the many levels of the internet. It's a bit like a 'big bang' in that it is evolving, complex and very different to what has come before. But it's a bit short on beauty... the likes of flora and fauna... internet can never replace the prior ecology. I'm glad I was a spectator for part of the transition. I hope I can help to make it a positive part of the future.
