Networked Society

According to the internet a Networked Society is a society is, "one in which connectivity brings people closer together than ever before, where collaboration is part of everyday life, and where every person and every industry is empowered to reach their full potential." Going from this definition and research from other sources if we'er not already living in a Networked Society then we will be very soon. As technology continues to grow it things change or adapt to it and society is no different. People will always strive to reach maximum potential in many cases and a connected society is something that everyone could benefit from therefore even if we already live in a Networked Society it is what some might call "the way of the future."

  1. I personally think we may be living already in a networked society. There's so many options to network with others. People can now collaborate of projects without even being in the same country. It's amazing what technology has done to our society. I guess the question is, is technology hurting the face to face aspect of connecting or networking with others?
