Abstract
The contribution will not focus on relevant aspects related to access such as political, religious or economic even if briefly introduced, the contribution will take into account what happens from the first access onward; the evolution of this “recent” domain and its actual and near future trends. Why access is so important? In the last thirty years many things changed. Pioneers and curious explorers of the digital domain left the arena to digital immigrants and more recently digital natives come on stage. In the same period of time we witnessed to a number of relevant innovations and changes. Nevertheless everyone experienced in “ICT based innovation” knows that “It is not only a matter of technology”. Networking means intercommunication, on line content, services and more much much more. Anyway different parameters are actively influencing e-Services success or failure: cultural aspects, organisational issues, bureaucracy and workflow, infrastructure and technology in general, user’s habits, literacy, capacity, market models, interaction design or merely mind-set! We will consider both opportunities and drawbacks due to such innovation (ethics, misuse, misinformation, etc). As a kind of last link of this chain, we own thousands of years expertise in preserving and transferring to future generations physical objects but only few decades about digital “objects”. The problem is still underestimated and involves both institutions and private citizens. If unresolved it may cause a potential information “black hole”.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
