About this ebook
* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.
By reading this summary, you will learn how new communication technologies have changed human behavior and the organization of social groups.
You will also learn that :
digital tools respond above all to the human need to communicate and gather;
they allow the creation of groups that could never have been created otherwise;
they facilitate collective actions in all fields;
even if they do not bring anything really new, they revolutionize ways of acting and reacting.
In 2006, a New Yorker recovered her phone and got her thief arrested by mobilizing a huge network of volunteers on the Internet. This story, unthinkable a few years earlier, shows how much man is interconnected and the impact that this networking can have on his institutions. New technologies now allow new types of groups to flourish. They have lowered the cost of collective organization by making it easier and quicker, so that social mobilization is becoming more and more common. But technology in itself does not change the world. It is its application to the ancestral need to communicate that is revolutionary.
