  1995: The Internet?
             One to many
A new territory

           The limits of my
           language are the
         limits of my world
             -L. Wittgenstein
The computer is everywhere
The cellphone is everywhere
     The Web is everywhere

            Hello, TV??
So... did you see the
convergence?

             :-)
Conversations everywhere
        Education anywhere, anytime
Social immersion anywhere, anytime
  Entertainment anywhere, anytime


         anytime, anywhere, everywhere
Will the conversations help
             us deepen our
 understanding, or will they
just be surface navigation?

       Just one question
