Hey, shouldn't some sociology student somewhere out there write his
paper on this subject? Don't think it hasn't been done! See, for example: http://research.microsoft.com/resear...0Report&id=500 http://research.microsoft.com/~jchay...rs/cluster.pdf Shauna Shauna Kelly. Microsoft MVP. http://www.shaunakelly.com/word "Amedee Van Gasse" wrote in message ... JR shared this with us in microsoft.public.word.newusers: Is the the "Be Nice" forum or the "Word" forum ???? John John, It's the "Who wants to be added to my *plonk* file today" newsgroup. PS: I don't "forum", I "newsgroup". NetNews/UseNet/newsgroup people (the old generation) usually have a very different attitude compared to web/forum people (the new generation). When a forum is an interface to a newsgroup, you mix the two groups together. So what essentially happened here was a generation conflict. As always: Your Mileage May Vary(tm). PPS: When I'm talking about old, new, generations etc you must interpret them as metaphores. I'm not talking about age, but about familiarity with technology and its social implications. It's possible to have a 28 year old person in the old generation (those who live by RFC1855 et al) and a 50 year old person in the new generation (those who think RFC means Royal Flying Corps or Rugby Football Club). That's the fun thing about technology: it redefines social relations as we know them, making interaction with others more interesting. -- Amedee Van Gasse |
