| dc.description.abstract | Directions of development of modern telematic technologies (computer mediated
communication, mobile telephone communication) change the human communication
environment to such an extent that people treat these technologies as – in some way – an
”organic”, natural equipment of a human being. The Web, especially in its mobile version,
has no longer any essential barriers. This has consequences in the way of treatment of
a communication act with another person (or a group): the sense of limits and barriers, which
accompanied the communication via the traditional media, disappears gradually.
This article is an attempt to conceptualize this new experience, crucial in developing the
anthropology of the Internet, which thus ceases to be the ”medium” and – according to the
ideas of Marshall McLuhan – turns out to be an extension of the human senses. | en_EN |
