Themes and Expectations — Toward the Internet Society

摘要

In developing the Internet, it will be too late if we wait for a consensus. In that case we will have to wait for a long time before technologies give us benefits and a satisfactory technological society is created. The most important thing is that we begin to build it now and to let people use it and evaluate it. Trials and experiments are necessary for people to evaluate it. Developing the Internet field has tremendous potential and people are very expectant. We would like to ask not only specialists but also others in various fields to concern themselves by enthusiastically joining us in tackling this subject.
