Information Overload?

Some people will do nothing but complain about how much technology we have around us, but personally I cannot get enough of it! Mind you, being a self-confessed geek does have its advantages you know… and one of these is being entirely comfortable with twenty-first century life. However, there is a dark side to this as well… I begin to feel very uneasy whenever I’m taken away from my digital cocoon. Although that’s okay; I’ll just not be planning any picnics in the countryside any time soon!!

Impact Of Internet –A Customer Data Management Exec As The Subject Of A Joke

How many times have you heard your grandfather start a joke by referring to two Irishmen who walked into the bar? Well, the country and location may differ but the emphasis is on an introduction that we are culturally comfortable with. Well, there may soon come a time when jokes will start with a reference to an individual who logged onto a customer data management website and did something really hilarious or experienced something that was comical beyond belief.

This may be something that sociologists may ponder about but it certainly is interesting to consider the impact of internet on our society and culture. Going online is considered a cool thing today. Fifty years ago, anybody who spoke of going online would have probably been pulled over by cops and has been asked to prove that he or she is indeed sober.

From the choice of terminology to various abbreviations that we now find acceptable - life has changed because of the internet. Whether it has changed for the better or not is something that only time will tell.

Considering today’s Facebook generation, one can only presume that future jokes will involve social networking as well. Well, the primary reason why internet has affected our lives in such strong manner is the fact that it has helped people communicate with each other without any difficulty. It is possible for a geek to upload a joke about another geek on the internet and enjoy global audience.

Many persons are of the opinion that communication would become simpler once the internet became popular. However, communication continues to remain as diverse and complicated as it was in the past. The only difference here is that internet has become a sort of an umbrella that cast its shadow on almost each and every thing that we do today.
