The Internet is a virtual world, but still on the basis of the real world, without the real world, the Internet is like rootless water, just a different form of expression.
The four stages of Internet development:
1. The core essence of the Internet is to electronize the information, and on this basis to complete the storage and transmission. After the information becomes "bits", the efficiency of dissemination is greatly enhanced, the change is the difference between the speed of a tortoise and the speed of light, so the change brought to human society is also disruptive. But this change is gradual, because the human information dissemination efficiency needs are not consistent, scientific research institutions, military units of information communication efficiency needs the most urgent, so they became the inventor of the Internet, after they began more than twenty years, the Internet has really entered the civilian stage.
2. Since the Internet mainly changes the efficiency of information transmission, most of the Internet companies are structuring information and providing services on this basis. Simply categorized, probably so many:
A, information exchange: such as communication tools, mailboxes, e-commerce platforms, communities, etc.;
B, infotainment: such as interactive games, audio and video sites, etc.
C, information security: such as the network disk, cloud disk or antivirus tools, etc.
D, information computing: cloud computing, data mining, etc.?
No matter how complex the positioning or description of these enterprises, how chaotic the business carried out, to open up their veneer, you will find that most of the enterprises are still providing information services.
3, human activity is essentially composed of two kinds of communication, one is the flow of information, one is logistics. When the rapid development of information technology, transmission efficiency and security continues to improve, the unit cost continues to reduce, but also affects the circulation of material. A lot of the original need to be carried on the physical exchange of information can then be virtualized, film because of the cost and effectiveness of the poor, soon to be fully integrated, paper has some inherent advantages, for the time being is still in the process of integration.
4, the Internet is aimed at the information revolution, then it will inevitably go to the Internet of things, that is, objects and objects seamless docking, as well as the integration of people and things, there are a few news can be referred to: "A, Honda develops only rely on the human brain to think can manipulate the robot's BMI technology; B, the first thought of the manipulation of the aircraft exposure! ". From Google's driverless technology, to the French robot NAO, and wearable devices, and telemedicine, 3D printing, smart home? Through the development of these cutting-edge technologies, we can foresee that the technological innovation based on the information control aspect will further change the way of production and life in the whole world.
