This Is How We Dream

Dr. Miller starts off his speech talking about printed book and libraries. Today students may never step foot in their universities library because almost everything in online. Students can also not only access their universities resources but those of universities all over the world. He said that people’s workspace today is laptops and word processing. Books are now in print and digital copies.
There were changes that Dr. Miller also spoke about when it came to presenting information. Documents can now show pictures and video and can also come with background sound. People can also collaborate with others from all over the world by using video and conferencing programs. It is now longer just about the text of documents but about their visual and auditory presentation.
I really liked Dr. Miller’s comment that when it came to information on the web most of the restrictions are those that we place on ourselves. People are not only using video and music programs to compose information but also the actual web. One professor came up with several programs using the web. One would search all the bogs on the web and that instant and measure their mood. The program could show the happiest city in the world!
