i People no longer spend hours gazing at a computer screen after work or !

! class; instead, they use their mobile devices to stay online everywhere, !
! all the time.
!
We have moved on from scattergun communication to a pattern where
! the user proactively selects the information they need.
!
! As we have seen, the Internet revolution is not just technological; it also !
! operates at a personal level, and throughout the structure of society. !
i The Internet makes it possible for an unlimited number of people to !
communicate with one another freely and easily, in an unrestricted way.
! What happened?
!
i The Internet has turned our existence upside down. It has revolutionised !
i communications, to the extent that it is now our preferred medium !
! of everyday communication. In almost everything we do, we use the !
Internet. Ordering a pizza, buying a television, sharing a moment with
! a friend, sending a picture over instant messaging. Before the Internet, !
! if you wanted to keep up with the news, you had to walk down to the !
! newsstand when it opened in the morning and buy a local edition !
! reporting what had happened the previous day. But today a click or two !
is enough to read your local paper and any news source from anywhere
! in the world, updated up to the minute.
!
! The Internet itself has been transformed. In the early days - which from i
! a historical perspective are still relatively recent - it was a static network !
! designed to shuttle a small freight of bytes or a short message between !
two terminals; it was a repository of information where content was
! published and maintained only by expert coders. Today, however, !
! immense quantities of information are uploaded and downloaded over !
i this electronic leviathan, and the content is very much our own, for !
l, now we are all commentators, publishers, and creators.

(In the 1980's and 1990's, the Internet widened in scope to encompass 'i
l the IT capabilities of universities and research centres, and, later on, l
l public entities, institutions, and private enterprises from around the l
! world. The Internet underwent immense growth; it was no longer a l
! state-controlled project, but the largest computer network in the world, l
comprising over 50,000 sub-networks, 4 million systems, and 70 million
! users.
!
l The emergence of web 2.0 in the first decade of the twenty-first century l
l was itself a revolution in the short history of the Internet, fostering the l
! rise of social media and other interactive, crowd-based communication !
! tools.
!
l The Internet was no longer concerned with information exchange l
l alone: it was a sophisticated multidisciplinary tool enabling individuals !
l to create content, communicate with one another, and even escape !
l reality. Today, we can send data from one end of the world to the other !
l in a matter of seconds, make online presentations, live in parallel "game l
worlds", and use pictures, video, sound, and text to share our real lives,
l our genuine identity. Persona! stories go public; local issues become !
! global.
!
l The rise of the Internet has sparked a debate about how online l
l communication affects social relationships. The Internet frees us from l
geographic fetters and brings us together in topic based communities
l that are not tied down to any specific place. Ours is a networked, l
l globalised society connected by new technologies. The Internet is the l
l tool we use to interact with one another, and accordingly poses new l
l challenges to privacy and security.
l
Information technologies have wrought fundamental change
l throughout society, driving it forward from the industrial age to the l
l networked era. In our world, global information networks are vital l
l infrastructure but in what ways has this changed human relations? The !
l Internet has changed business, education, government, healthcare, and !
l even the ways in which we interact with our loved ones - it has become l
! one of the key drivers if social evolution.
l
l The changes in social communication are of particular significance. l
l Although analogue tools still have their place in some sectors, new l
~ technologies are continuing to gain ground every day, transforming )

l Online, the conventional constraints of space and time disappear and l
! there is a dizzyingly wide range of communicative possibilities. The !

Are all modern devices and digital conveniences we have at our !

disposai - from the web and social media to smartphones and tablets !
- making us more distracted and less able to concentrate? And is this !
harming our ability to think and be creative, and therefore by extension !
harming society as a whole? It's a question that rears it's head from time
to time. One of the latest expressions of this fear cornes from Joe Kraus, !
a serial entrepreneur who is now a partner with Google Ventures and !
gave a presentation recently about his concerns, offering an alternative !
concept he calls "Slow Tech". But is this something we need to be afraid !

In his presentation, Kraus argues that the incessant demands of !

cellphones and social media, not to mention email and other forms of !
distraction, are making it difficult for us to connect with other people !
- including our families - and also endangering our ability to think !
about anything other than the next jolt of stimulation from the devices
! we have all around us, which he compares to the constant stimulus of a !
! slot machine at a casino. As he describes it:
!
! We are creating and encouraging a culture of distraction where we are !
! increasingly disconnected from the people and events around us, and !
increasingly unable to engage in long-form thinking. People now feel
! anxious when their brains are unstimulated.
!
! We are losing some very important things by doing this. We threaten i
! the key ingredients behind creativity and insight by filling up all our !
! "gap" time with stimulation. And we inhibit real human connection !
when we prioritise our phones over the people right in front of us.
! Is multi-tasking a myth?
!
! Kraus says he has an "unhealthy relationship" with his phone and!
i is constantly pulling it out to check things, and that if he lets it, that !
l, behaviour "fills up those gaps in my day" some gaps of boredom, some )

(of solitude. The effect of all this, he argues, is that we are increasingly 'j
l distracted, and less able to pay attention to anything for a reasonable l
l length of time, and this distraction is a "worsening condition". We may !
think that we are getting things accomplished or multi-tasking, he
l says, but brain studies show that multi-tasking is a myth, and in reality !
j we are just trying to do too many things at once and overloading our j
l brain's ability to concentrate.
l
l The Google Ventures partner and former co-founder of Excite.corn l
l also quotes sociologist Dr Sherry Turkle, to the effect that; We are l
! lonely but fearful of intimacy. Digital connections offer the illusion of l
j companionship without the demands of friendship. We expect more j
! from technology and less from each other
l
l This explains the constant desire for virtual contact, Kraus says - and l
l that contact gets in the way of real relationships.
l
l Kraus is far from the only one to raise the warning flag about any of l
l this; Turkle has written about how the Internet doesn't help form real l
l relationships, but fosters a kind of fake intimacy. Nicholas Carr argues l
l in his book The Shallows that the internet and social media are making l
l us less intelligent - and less interesting - and are actually changing our l
l brains in negative ways. Others have also written about how they are l
l trying to minimize the distractions their phones provide in the way of l
l notifications, and there are a host of apps to help you concentrate when !
! you are us1ng your computer.
!
! I would be the first to agree that time without a phone or tablet is a l
l valuable thing, and that it's good to take long walks (or baths, the place l
! where Archimedes famously discovered the law od hydrostatics) and l
j think big thoughts. And I also wrestle - as Kraus does - with the desire i
! to look at the phone during meals and other times when I am with my l
l family. But is this really a social disaster waiting to happen? And is it l
l changing us and our brains for the worse? I have my doubts about that, !
l just as I have my doubts about Nick Carr's arguement that the Internet l
j is making us dumber and less interesting, or that Facebook of any social j
l network is making us lonely.
l
l Distraction of all kinds can be good as well as bad.
l
! Is technology changing, and society along with it? Of course it is - but !
l, that doesn't mean we are becoming worse in some way, or necessarily )

' losing anything crucial. In fact, we are just as likely to be gaining as 'losing. When Carr made his arguement about the distractions of the
Internet, I had just finished reading a piece Paul Kedrosky wrote for
The Edge collection, in which he argued that one of the things he
liked best about the Internet and social media was the way in which it
bombarded him with random data and content- the way that molecules
are bombarded with other particles during quantum research - and
that this produced all sorts of wonderful combinations of ideas:
The democratization of connections, collisions and therefore thinking
is historically unprecedented. We are the first generation to have
information equivalent of the Large Hadron Collider for ideas. And if
that doesn't change the way you think, nothing will.
Not everyone can consume (or make sense of) quite as many diverse
information sources as Kedrosky can, but his point is a good one: the
random information flow that we are bathed in when we are online
or using social media and devices like smartphones can just as easily
be a source of inspiration and creativity as a killer of those things.
Why is looking out the window or going for a walk more conducive
to reflection than browsing through a friend's Tumblir stream? I am
not against walks or daydreaming - but there are plenty of ways to
daydream and think big thoughts, and the shower or hiking trail is not
the only place that happens.
Is there a need for moderation when it cornes to phones or the Internet
or social media? Of course there is, and social norms are developing
around those things, just like they developed around the horseless
carriage and the telephone and plenty of other modern inventions.
One of the devices that has historically drawn the most criticism from
scholars and theologians for its corrupting effect on humanity seems to
have worked out pretty well - it's called the book If we can figure that
out, I'm sure we can figure out how to handle cellphones and status
updates.

Snow joke. China gets the 2022 winter Olympics l

the Winter Olympics will be held in a place with no snow. On !

July 31st the International Olympie Committee awarded the games to j
Beijing, to be held in the city of Zhangjiakou, 250 km (150 miles) north l
of the capital. The resort beat Almaty in Kazakhstan, the only other l
remaining city left in the bid. China has a lot of work to do in the next
seven years to ready itself. Among them is to make some snow.

When any city is awarded the Olympics, questions quickly follow !

about the country's ability to build the appropriate infrastructure in !
time - and how much it will cost. These cause less anxiety in China.!
In its bid the country highlighted its prowess at building fancy stadia, j
zippy high-speed rail and other transport links on time. Beijing has !
already hosted a successful summer Olympics - making it the first l
city ever to host both. In terms of the cost, the government deems no l
price tag too high for the prestige of staging the Olympics, yet another l
symbol of China's growing pre-eminence in the world.

l 3 More worrying is China's ambition to stage the winter Olympics -l

l and launch a winter sports industry - in an arid desert (Zhangjiakou l
l is near the Gobi). Almost every winter Olympics venue uses artificial l
snow to supplement their own supply, and to ensure a plentiful supply j
l of the best kind. But most have far more of their own to start with. l
l Although China does have areas which are covered in the real stuff l
l through the winter, but these lay further away from the capital, to the l
! far north and northeast.

( 4 The government has already quashed the growth of golf, another 'i
l sport whose high water demands were deeded excessive. But it now l
! plans to spend nearly $90m on water-diversion schemes to satisfy l
! Olympie demand. The country has already invested in giant diversion !
! schemes to channel water hundreds of miles from the south to quench !
the thirst of the capital; groundwater supplies are being used up too.

Of greater concern to environmentalists than a two-week party !

! in 2022 is the broader attempt to launch China's own domestic ski!
! industry. The sport is still very much in its infancy: on an average winter !
! weekend most of the skiers sliding down the fake snow at Zhangjiakou !
are beginners. It is also too expensive for most Chinese. Yet for months
l airports around the country, including in the balmy south, have been l
l attempting to flog winter sports to Chinese consumers. It may also now l
! persuade a few of them to practice rather hard. China not only needs to !
\, make some snow, it needs to make some gold-medal winners too.

I have recently returned from two weeks spent in a remote cottage in the
Highlands. In the house there is neither running water nor electricity, and
the nearest road is an hour's walk over the hills. Water has to be collected
in buckets from the nearby burn; toilets are emptied in a multi-staged
system that eschews the luxury of a flush. There is no phone signal.
The first week was sunny, and I swam in the sea, and sat outside with
cups of tea, and read books. The second week was cold and rainy, so I
swam (but enjoyed it less) and sat outside wearing two fleeces until my
hands were too cold to turn the pages, and lurked indoors when the rain
got heavy or the midges midged excessively.
Perhaps you are not a member of my family, and this setup strikes you
as idyllic; perhaps the idea of going somewhere colder than home is your
worst nightmare. But for me, these are just summer holidays. Or, if you
prefer, "summer holidays" - the quotation marks necessary to mark the
distance between the intention of the expression, and how it is put into
practice in my life.
The discrepancy between summer holidays as I experience them and as
they are presented tome as a concept has its own familiar and comforting
dissonance. This summer I read articles about bikinis and chilled picnic
food and how to stay cool on the beach in both the shiny new magazines
I had bought for the train.
My daughter, in turn, excavated the suitcase of ancient comics in the
bedroom, and in my old Just Seventeens, and the Mizzes, which were
first read by my sister, she could learn about bikinis and picnic food and
how to stay cool on the beach (and how to find a summer boyfriend they always made it sound so easy). All advice that I have obediently
absorbed, all information that bears an airy irrelevance to any kind of
\ summer holiday, any kind of life, I have ever had.

''------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~ __ ;,,

/,------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------,,'

, There is a pattern of awareness to growing up, a process of learning to '.

frame your own experiences and put them into a gradually widening
context. First thinking your way of doing things is absolutely normal;
next learning that other people do things their own (the wrong) way;
and then meeting and learning about more and more people. As you
discover how common your experiences are - or aren't - you find
out that some seemingly impossible scenarios are just marketers'
propaganda while others are in fact the widely accepted norm.
The unwavering, blissful monotony of the magazine summers I read
about shifted over the years from something I understood to be total
fantasy to something I recognised as an idealised facsimile of Other
People's Summers. The fantasy summer and its vicarious pleasures
became a tangible and necessary element of my enjoyment of my own
reality.
Living in Scotland, you get used to summer" being more of a theory
than a season: a state of mind, perhaps a couple of days in May. A kind
of mathematical symbol that is meaningless alone but whose proximity
alters the value of its surroundings. Summer holidays" are the long
ones; summer nights" are also the long ones; summer sales" are the
ones full of horrible clothes that are too brightly coloured, and which
you can't wear with a cardigan and tights.
Always, though, there is a vague understanding that for some people,
and in some places, summer" means a protracted and reliable period

wellies and a thermal vest. The comparison threw into relief my own
reality: clarified it, made it seem unique, authentic.
