Even just a few years from now we will be surrounded by the first generation of adults who grew up with the Internet. The majority of these individual lives will be eternalized online.
甚至只需短短几年之后,我们周围将尽是伴随互联网成长起来的第一代人。其中大多数人的生活将会被完全记录在互联网上因而得以永久保存。
A recent advertisement for Google Chrome showed a series of important events in a child’s life, each one belonging to a different part of the Internet – the first steps on YouTube; birthday e-mails; Facebook photos of teenage parties. The message was clear: a life can now be fully expressed through the Internet.
谷歌Chrome浏览器的最新广告展示了一个孩子生活中的一系列重大事件,每件事都关乎互联网的方方面面——YouTube上,孩子学会走路后迈出第一步的视频;邮件中的电子生日贺卡,Facebook上年轻人聚会的照片。这一切所传达出的信息显而易见:生活完全可以在互联网上全部展现。
This, of course, has a significant effect on how we remember things. Online, major events and experiences can be read about–and with video, watched–again and again. Computers and the Internet, rather than offering something new, combine all our technological means of artificial memory–text, sound and image–to create a synthesis that can recall memories more intensely than anything before.
