In this world of the internet today, we’ve evolved into a different in my perspective.
The Two C’s of the internet involve
- Consumption
- Contribution
In the 80′s to 90′s, was when the computing world and the internet was rapidly growing. I was born in this 90′s era and grew up around all this tech and was fortunate enough to be able to experience and learn the awesomeness of how to use some old school tech such as DOS and Win 3.1 which are some of the pioneers to the windows computing world today. During this time period, people are mainly learning how to adapt and use the internet and whatnot and contributing to the computing world as we know it today. I didn’t get to dive into the programming aspect which is where I am lagging today but am working to get back up to pace as my career is going to depend on my arsenal of IT Knowledge so now, I am in a phase where it is my turn to contribute back to the world. I guess this blog that I started a long time ago is somewhat how I contribute to it through my thought processes and opinions.
But anyhow, in order for the world of computing and the internet to grow, there must always be continuous process development and contribution. Without this, there cannot be growth and the internet will be filled with sublime trolls and whatnot
And this Leads to the 2nd C of the internet. Consumption
In this generation where we grow up with smart phones, tablets, and mobility, everything is taken on the go. No more gameboys, PSP’s, nor handheld games anymore.
There a lot of mobile things that are where people just use to watch videos, interact with social networks and whatnot and read on the net rather than do real computing/work. Just some food for thought as to how much people use their consumer devices nowadays throughout the day. We are in an environment where a lot of marketing in the tech world is towards a consumption based environment as opposed to a production based environment which leads to my thought of consumption = couch potatoes.
So the question that’s recently passed through my mind is can there be a balance between the preferences of consumption based and contribution based?
Gonna be posting up some pics every once in a while now hopefully somethin interesting haha.
