网络能走多远? 不是自己胡思乱想,也不是网恋, 只是对网络上存在的现象表示怀疑....网络展现给大家的都是最好的, 实在不容易看清楚......
很多人把网络与现实混淆, 猫自己有一段时间也是这样, 白天黑夜泡在网络上, 工作荒废了, 歌没唱几首, 上学是稀里糊涂, 戒网多次还是未果.....
这个度很难balance, 不想了, 越想越复杂.....嘿嘿
我想这里至少有两个方面的问题：
1.从技术角度看，网络到底会怎样发展？有没有极限？网络的发展从总体上对整个社会生活，道德观念，价值观念，家庭结构，文化教育。。。会有什么样的影响？毫无疑问，网络的发展会越来越多的影响社会生活，带来的变化会是天翻地覆的！！！人类社会面临全面的挑战！
2.从个人和网络的关系看，我们在网络上应该或可能怎样生活？怎样处理虚拟世界和现实世界的关系。网络是个真实的虚拟世界，网络上的一切都带有现实世界的痕迹，在虚虚实实中，我们有时会困惑。。。 但根据我自己的体验，网络其实很真实，因为ID背后是真人啊:))) 至于我们在网络上能走多远，要看将来网络是不是永远象现在一样还可以游离于现实世界之外啦。。。现在，不在网上玩，也可以生活，将来真的不知道啦。。。
:))) 我瞎发议论啊。。。语无伦次滴假装思考一下猫猫的思考哈！
