Final Blog!

I had never made use of or even heard of blogging before this unit. Now that i have figured it out and learned a little about it i think that it is very useful indeed. I think it is one of those things that would become more and more useful and vital the more you use it like email or text messaging. I am rather traditional and come from deepest darkest Africa so I am not too sure that I would immediately make use of the blogging skills anytime soon. But I am glad i now have the skills if the need should ever arise! And i'm pretty sure it will.
I love the concept of a cyborg. Terminator 2, Blade Runner! Yeaah!! I think we are all cyborgs in the western world now. The trick is to be smart and useful cyborgs rather than destructive because it is definitely a matter of all things in good measure. Play your computer games and talk to someone in Japan, but then go ride a bike afterwards!
I found the section on race and gender very interesting. There is no way the utopian dream of internet as a bias free zone could ever come true because behind the machines there is always a bog standard human doing the talking and thinking and nothing yet can change the effects of this. Would we ever want to change something so innately human?
Great unit and Tama was very impressive as a tutor. Thank you all!!!
