The document is a film analysis of "The Social Network" that makes the argument that while technology has benefits, it also inevitably leads to increased tension and conflict in modern life. It provides several examples from the film to support this, such as how the creation of Facebook damaged Mark Zuckerberg's friendship and led to lawsuits, and how technologies like cell phones and online platforms can exacerbate misunderstandings. The document also argues that technology heightens competitive pressures and creates new sources of stress, using examples like electronic stock trading.

This chapter is quite a different read from the balance of the book..pdfjacquelynjessicap166
This chapter is quite a different read from the balance of the book. I think it is a pleasant way to
end this 2nd edition. Shubert tackles a discussion I know I have had my my colleagues many
times, namely, the value of social networking at work. Shubert writes (288): \"It is the delivery
of technology and capability to business and society that lies at the heart of the dilemma for
CIOs and CTOs today; Businesses want and need access to networks (electronic communities) to
reach... their current and potential customers. Businesses are concerned that access to these same
networks by their employees could pose a security or competitive risk... .\" The ability to spill
one\'s guts then used to be isolated to the bar; now you can do so at every opportunity. It is true
that some employees are addicted to staying in touch, and Facebook is the rage. I would hazard
the guess that these same slackers are IM\'ing their friends or on the phone yacking it up with
momma. I don\'t think Facebook or for that matter Smart phones have made people more secure
in their social networks. There is simply a pathology that manifests itself when the conditions are
ripe. Excuse me. I see some practical marketing uses for product simulation, touring the plant,
getting to know folks; Second Life has shown itself to be useful in a variety of settings, even
organizational development where you want everyone to get together anonymously. But the part
of the chapter that intrigues me the most is the discussion on democratization and socialization of
information. Has the boundary between expert and amateur blurred? My answer to this would be
yes, if all the experts agree but the amateurs do not. For many of the problems facing the
corporation, crowdsourcing probably works as well as formal expertise. Given sufficient
monkeys, sufficient time, Shakespeare. Any of you who have had to endure the vendor pitch
knows that truth is relative to the need for profit. So we come to the a practical discussion of the
role of the CIO in moderating access to social media, framing what stands as truth in the
information world of the corporation, and the extent to which the explosion of personal authority
on the Internet has diminished our ability to sort out truth from hyperbole.
Solution
Over the past years, networks that is, communications, computational, data, and business
networks have become an increasingly developed important part of our professional lives. Over
just the past ten years they have become critical as they have woven themselves into the fabric of
our day-to-day lives of magnitude as have corporate and personal bandwidth access needs, but
the cost of using this bandwidth has also diminished significantly.communications have changed
significantly over this same period—from use of \"land lines\" to cell phones, where nearly
anyone can own a telephone number of their choosing that permanently belongs to the them,
regardless of where they live. The explosion of voice communicat.

A ll the values that Silicon Valley professes are the values of the 60s. The big techcompanies present themselves as platforms for personal liberation. Everyone hasthe right to speak their mind on social media, to fulfil their intellectual anddemocratic potential, to express their individuality. Where television had been apassive medium that rendered citizens inert, Facebook is participatory andempowering. It allows users to read widely, think for themselves and form their
own opinions.
We can’t entirely dismiss this rhetoric. There are parts of the world, even in the US, where
Facebook emboldens citizens and enables them to organise themselves in opposition to power.
But we shouldn’t accept Facebook’s self-conception as sincere, either. Facebook is a carefully
managed top-down system, not a robust public square. It mimics some of the patterns of
conversation, but that’s a surface trait.
In reality, Facebook is a tangle of rules and procedures for sorting information, rules devised by
the corporation for the ultimate benefit of the corporation. Facebook is always surveilling users,
always auditing them, using them as lab rats in its behavioural experiments. While it creates the
impression that it offers choice, in truth Facebook paternalistically nudges users in the direction
it deems best for them, which also happens to be the direction that gets them thoroughly
addicted. It’s a phoniness that is most obvious in the compressed, historic career of Facebook’s
mastermind.
Mark Zuckerberg is a good boy, but he wanted to be bad, or maybe just a little bit naughty. The
heroes of his adolescence were the original hackers. These weren’t malevolent data thieves or
cyberterrorists. Zuckerberg’s hacker heroes were disrespectful of authority. They were
technically virtuosic, infinitely resourceful nerd cowboys, unbound by conventional thinking. In
the labs of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) during the 60s and 70s, they broke
any rule that interfered with building the stuff of early computing, such marvels as the first
video games and word processors. With their free time, they played epic pranks, which
happened to draw further attention to their own cleverness – installing a living cow on the roof
of a Cambridge dorm; launching a weather balloon, which miraculously emerged from beneath
the turf, emblazoned with “MIT”, in the middle of a Harvard-Yale football game.

This presentation will explore one aspect of the Digital Divide, discussed in recent literature with regards to gender differences in how information and communication technologies are utilised and accessed by both sexes. It has been found that women are underrepresented in information and communication technology (ICT) higher education courses as well as the Information Technology (IT) industry in Australia. This has the resultant effect of creating a skills shortage and gender inequality in an ever expanding knowledge & computer based society. Policies regarding the Australian economy are shifting their focus to creating green ICT related jobs which will require more technical computer skills. Therefore it is imperative that the IT sector considers leveraging all kinds of diversity, especially gender diversity, to not only increase their productivity but to facilitate innovation of ICT’s and market them to an equally diverse society. To exclude women whether intentionally or other from this important industry is to the detriment of not only that industry but all of society

The Social Network: Is Technology Really Worth it?
The film, The Social Network, details the controversy surrounding the establishment of
Facebook. In this film, a sophomore at Harvard College named Mark Zuckerberg uses his
coding ability to make a name for himself. Because Zuckerberg is known around the campus for
his computer skills, he is approached by two fellow students who wish to create a social website
exclusive to Harvard students and alumni. Apparently wanting to gain favor with the two
students, Zuckerberg takes on the project. When Zuckerberg launches Facebook a few weeks
later, a website of his own creation, the two students accuse him of intellectual property theft.
The students claim that Zuckerberg stole their idea for a social media site; they say that
Facebook is based off of the site Zuckerberg agreed to help them develop. To add to this
conflict, the movie reveals the increasingly intense tension between Zuckerberg and his best
friend, Eduardo Saverin. This conflict arises because of Zuckerberg’s decisions regarding
Facebook’s financial management. Through its portrayal of the life of Mark Zuckerberg, The
Social Network puts forth an unfortunate effect of the proliferation of sophisticated technology;
technological advance, while positive itself, inevitably adds to the tension of modern life.
Much of the film chronicles the negative role technology played in Zuckerberg’s relations
with other people. Zuckerberg’s creation of Facebook, for example, is what led to termination of
his friendship with Eduardo Saverin. The relationship of the two friends falls apart after
Facebook is incorporated and Zuckerberg makes financial decisions harmful to Saverin.
2. Meares 2
Corollaries of this falling-out between friends are, unfortunately, all too common in today’s
world. Catalyzed by communications technologies such as the cell phone, simple jokes and
comments can turn into friendship-breaking events. Consider texting, an increasingly common
form of communication brought about by creation of the cell phone. Because texting is intended
to be a convenient form of communication, users will abbreviate messagfes at will, often making
them unclear. Such ambiguous messages can be misunderstood and wreak havoc on a
relationship. The film offers further insight into this area of technological effect by describing
Zuckerberg’s relation to Erica Albright. Though their relationship was going poorly at the film’s
beginning, abrasive blog posts made by Zuckerberg regarding Albright serve to further degrade
their relationship. The availability of online blogging was an undeniable contributor to the
negative relationship of Zuckerberg and Albright. Despite their immense value, the cell phone,
computer, and other forms of electronic communication contribute greatly to the stress of
modern life.
A second example of the negative role technology plays in Zuckerberg’s life is the
lawsuit filed against him by the Winklevoss twins. Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, the two
students who approach Zuckerberg asking for assistance in making a social site for Harvard
students, become enemies of Zuckerberg because of Facebook. Believing that Zuckerberg stole
their idea for a social networking site, the twins sue him heavily. I believe that this example of
the conflict caused by technology has a daily-occurring parallel in today’s internet world:
plagiarism. The conflict caused by theft of another’s thought perfectly mirrors the film’s
depiction of conflict between Zuckerberg and the Winklevoss twins. While plagiarism is an
obvious generator of legal tension, it causes tension among peers as well; in an academic setting,
3. Meares 3
it is unfair, not to mention illegal, to steal the writings of another. Technology, while itself
benign, tends to encourage tension and confusion among those who use it.
Furthermore, this film shows that technology increases the competitive tension of daily
life. The two lawsuits detailed in the film were filed by parties jealous of Facebook’s financial
success. The explosive success of Facebook, not a bad thing in itself, is shown to lead to this
destructive competition. The fierce antagonism portrayed in the film is mirrored by the
contention that has arisen from the advent of electronic stock trading. As a financial tool,
electronic trading allows corporations to take efficient, expeditious financial action. In spite of
the invaluable fiscal advantage that results from electronic trading, trading in this way has
introduced new levels of stress into several professions. Stock brokers and mutual fund
managers, for example, are pressured to make the highest possible gains. Fifty or a hundred
years ago, accomplishing such a task meant simply picking productive investments. In contrast,
because of the rapidly fluctuating data provided by electronic trading, trading at precisely the
right time has become an important factor in today’s market. Mere milliseconds can make a
difference when dealing with millions of dollars worth of capital. The pressure to make large
trades at just the right moment can drive some money-managers over the edge. Because of
technology credited with revolutionizing the modern stock market, the jobs of many individuals
are many times more stressful than comparable jobs were 100 years ago.
Lastly, this film points out that the function of technology itself contributes to the tension
of modern life. When the Facebook bank account is frozen, jeopardizing Zuckerberg’s ability to
keep the site’s servers up and running, he hysterically proclaims to Saverin, “If those servers are
down for even a day, our entire reputation is irreversibly destroyed!” Though Zuckerberg’s
hysteria comes from his company’s lack of funding, his stress comes from the results of the
4. Meares 4
servers ceasing to function. Likewise, in daily life, people depend on technology so heavily that
its failure can cause not only tension and difficulty, but even hysteria. For example, a discharged
car battery can cause great worry and delirium for the owner of the car, who is possibly stranded
without a ride. While it is ridiculous to think of abandoning cars for this reason, as they are vital
to the proper function of modern society, it is undeniable that they can cause problems.
The claim made by this film that technology leads to tension is unfortunately accurate.
Though it deals with some of the negative aspects of today’s society, this is a well-made and
enjoyable film. Not only is this film enjoyable to watch, it provides insight into an often ignored,
yet critically important, facet of modern life: the ever-increasing tension that accompanies ever-
advancing technology.
