THIS MESSAGE REPLIES TO JOSE CISNEROS ESPINOSA, Re: Specific use of the Internet in LAC? , 07/12/99

Truth. The ways to direct are different.

We should also separate:

to) Internet like communication instrument in which the original forms of communication try to find or to create another time their proprio space;
b) Internet like organization instrument, file and popularization of documents and informations, where also the original forms of making these things operate for after the technological imposition.

Each one of us have inclusive several examples of such particularities in the own clever Mistica. But Ricardo is right in this that should be compiled and analyzed to form a scientific demonstration of the case.

Also, it is probable that we will find similaridades among several cultures, or sub-groups of "deviations " among several cultures, in opposition to the practice of the others.

Finally, like they mentioned Ana Mar�a and Yacine, variations the use ways can be of the partner-demographic characteristics of the users in different countries, as of the use cost, of the available technologies and in ways of adapting to these contingencies.
