Me, Photoshop, and boredom. I play the guy on the right, of course!

I am Robert Price. This is my fifth and last year at Evergreen. I'm taking Internet: Knowledge and Community mainly because I want to learn theories as to how the Internet affects our societies and what the future holds for the Internet.

I've designed web pages. I've done basic/intermediate programming since I was five years old. I've built, repaired, and destroyed many computers over the years. But I have never thought critically about how the Internet (or computers in general) affect the people that use them.

For our Wikipedia assignment last quarter, I examined the Wikipedia article about dreams. I have also made some contributions to the Minecraft article by correcting grammar. I love Minecraft!

My Initial Question

  1. What have been the most significant developments in the Internet community since the creation of the Internet and how do they compare with developments in our real communities?




Questions I've Responded To

  1. We have come to rely on technology, so with technology continuing to expand, evolve, change and continue to be more innovative, could we see social networks as Facebook and Twitter be the end all for postage stamps?
  2. How has the Internet had an effect on language, specifically English?
  3. How does the ease of internet posting effect art culture?
  4. WikiDevelop
