Web 2.0's influence! Good? Bad?
I’m more interesting in how this web 2.0 change communication and our lives. Since the beginning of web 2.0, the blooming of online community and blogs, Internet has become personal. It is no longer about the things going on out there in the world, but what has happened to me. Information is now being more personal with everyone’s opinions about everything. Don’t get me wrong about this being a bad thing! But now that the details about people’s personal lives and deep secrets and private beliefs are out in the open online, how are people’s lives been affected? Have become a group interesting in private lives or are we so open that we can share anything?
Well, I hope this is overall a positive thing, for everyone can have a voice and reach out to people they might have never been able to.

It makes me reflect on all the early concerns about the internet : people are less socially inhibited and broadcast themselves as different people online. Now, years later, we see that's exactly how a good number of people act in online communities, but we don't care anymore. We just take that into a part of the equation of understanding who someone is (at least, who they are as an online persona).
