Comments on: Is the Web Awake? http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/is-the-web-awake.html Science Blog from Freelance Science Writer David Bradley Tue, 16 Mar 2010 19:07:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: myspace designer http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/is-the-web-awake.html/comment-page-1#comment-124022 myspace designer Thu, 12 Jul 2007 18:29:52 +0000 http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/is-the-web-awake.html#comment-124022 The web does seem to be a living thing adapting, adjusting, and growing. It's constantly changing to meet our and technologies new desires and abilities. As web 2.0 and with sites like MySpace and Facebook have become part of our lives the web is reflecting us more. On the web the details of our life are located and as we grow the web grows with us. We have an experience and the details of that experience are placed on the web. Maybe I'm confused as a web designer it's possible I spend too much time with the web. Maybe I want the web to be living maybe that makes me less trivial. For now I'll keep adding to this living web.

It’s interesting that you pick up on the non-committal nature of the pros. In truth there is much evidence to suggest that the Web is indeed evolving in a life-like manner. Nevertheless the concept of what life means to the individual will always be subjective, and rightly so. I hence deliberately handed over the task of forming conclusions to the reader. Hopefully, therefore, The Web’s Awake offers two things of value in support. Firstly enough evidence to make up one’s own mind on the viability of Web Life and, secondly, an enjoyable read whilst on the road to enlightenment. Let the debate continue…and if we can’t come to a consensus, let’s ask Google! Phil Tetlow (author of The Web’s Awake) An insightful review.
