The Up and Comming Internet Culture

I recently bought a new computer and was truly fascinated with all of the new technologies that are coming to be. One of the newest gadgets that I purchased was a microphone for my computer that I can use over the internet. I really feel that this devise is going to create a whole new culture of internet users. “Voice recognition has the potential to be a useful technology for bridging the spoken and written word” (Honeycutt, Lee). With the addition of being able to look at words that others have written and connecting a voice to them, I feel that it is going to make the internet feel like they are more connected to what they are reading. People will become more involved over the internet and will be able to express themselves with less and less confusion. “As a generation that has known mostly silent writing, we might be tempted at first to dismiss computerized dictation as a technological gimmick that disrupts our embedded silent literacy practices” (Honeycutt, Lee). I really feel that this phase will end quickly because people will really connect with each other and be more able to relate their feelings.
