Not too long ago I wrote a note called Digital Native Responsibility. I continued my thoughts on this after watching a very relevant documentary on PBS called Digital Nation. The documentary visited the common “digital native” in various cities all over the world which examined the positive and negative effects technology has on brain development. Much of this examination was questioning the act and psychology of muli-tasking. Is it possible? Has the “digital native” developed some sort of new brain functionality for technology? Are virtual worlds changing the “real” world? These kind of questions are asked and are seen from several angles. The good and the bad. Hosts Douglas Rushkoff and Rachel Dretzin are out to understand these questions rather than provide answers.
