Since the mid-1990s, China's Internet has been the rapid development of world attention, has become a new way to spread our culture, a new platform for cultural services and spiritual and cultural life of the new space, accompanied with the Internet culture is increasingly production and lifestyle of our society have an enormous and profound impact. Therefore, the network access to knowledge and culture course study of vision, but also by the party and the country's attention.

On Internet culture, current society is particularly important that managers should clearly understand Internet culture of introspection social function. Especially as China from a traditional society to a modern social transformation accelerated, network culture, the social function of social development and change will have a significant role inestimable and far-reaching impact. The following social functions only in respect of network culture is very important to do a brief discussion of the two.

All spread to all

"Everyone on the spread of all," this sentence is the United States "Connection" magazine on the definition of new media. I believe that this sentence is an accurate representation of the Internet culture vividly one of the most important social function, and specifically described as follows.

Anyone can quickly and even real-time to any other place (to be precise GPS positioning point), broadcast audio, images, video and text information.

Anyone can spread via the Internet culture methods for video multimedia face to face, and this exchange can be either one to one private, it can be more than (technology allowed millions of people) while groups of each other.

Regardless of the political, economic, scientific, technological, or cultural, educational, etc. Whether it all matters of human society, everyone can spread through the Internet culture in time and even immediate release channel / gain the most professional knowledge, information, analysis and strategy advice .

The most widely used public domain - the Internet in the public domain

As the Internet spread to all by all, people link to Macross put into an interactive communication network, making everyone as individuals from the existence of countless individuals through the Internet and other people who aggregate for the group or community to extend . Therefore, the Internet consisting of social networks space, to provide mankind with a new interactive Field - online public domain. Also, because the Internet space may be infinite expansion, so the online public sphere can be considered the most extensive in the public domain, its main features are as follows.

In terms of geographic area: no matter what (to be precise GPS positioning point) happened due to the presence of cultural transmission network, or even real-time can quickly become the country's public national and global events.

On the participation of people in terms of: whether the individual, group or organization affairs, may also be in a very short period of time through the network communication and for all public, all citizens are concerned about humanity and even participate in the transaction.

On the values ​​and codes of conduct in terms of: equality, all public areas of the basic properties and characteristics, but also the age-old pursuit. This is the network be completely reflected in the culture. In the online world, there is no identity of equal status, no social status, no job size, or sub-leaders and the masses, everyone in the network are only equal "netizens." Only in equality, everyone can participate in the network became the most extensive in the public domain; only in equality, respect for reason became the network with the most basic interaction was generally follow the guidelines.

On cultural and social function of the network have different opinions, but as long as into the process of understanding the history of human civilization will be able to grasp the essence. For example, in early human society, people are no longer confined to the appearance of text memory and mouth-phase grant to spread the heritage and the acquisition of knowledge and ideas; Another example is in ancient society, movable type to break a few people can enjoy and use books conditions so that the knowledge and ideas spread to the civilian population; another example of modern community radio and television is easy to make knowledge and ideas across national boundaries with global implications. Today, the Internet and Internet culture can all human knowledge and thinking fast, low-cost available to almost everyone at the same time, regardless of when and where any matter, can not be closed. Therefore, the Internet culture has been, is and will continue to produce life in our society, especially the governance of our society, a huge deep and long-term effects.
