So I would argue that intentions and relationships already dictate our behaviors-- more so than physical destinations. Those would be examples of the tacit strategies I mentioned. But the intentions and relationships are segmented in a way that will probably seem Victorian in the near future: based on an artificial sense of identity boundaries. Isn't there a song "I think I'm turning Japanese"? It's as if we're shifting from an individualized culture to a collective one.katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09452254310603787822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566428515788827088.post-31412377740036125362008-11-30T22:13:00.000-06:002008-11-30T22:13:00.000-06:00Kate,That's the money question.

Those different passwords are all friction, characteristic of a prehistoric Web (the one we're in now). They'll eventually go away and I suspect that context will drastically change, whereby parent context has less to do with destination (i.e., the physical locales that require incompatible profiles) and more to do with intentions or relationships.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
