Earlier this year, I wrote about voyeurism and losing our souls to the internet. The premise of the post was that the representations that we make of ourselves online can eventually replace other people’s actual/real perceptions of us – and that it can destroy your soul, basically.
I’d like to continue this conversation by pointing out that the internet has been going through a dramatic change. In the technology industry we call it “Web 2.0”, but no one really knows what that actually means… so let me try to explain what this is and what I see it doing to our society.
