I'm part of that generation that saw Internet coming into life and that witnessed how a whole new world opened in front of our eyes. I started college still with a typewriter and got my first email in there, when Internet was only an university-based resource. A decade later, my PhD dissertation could not have been written had Internet not been what it is now. So I'm part of those whose childhood was still Internet-free, but now I'm fascinated by how the world has changed with it, and I'm focused on the impact of the web in my area of work, which is literature. I not only want to track down how technology became a recurrent topic on novels and stories, I'm interested on those literary works that could not have been created without Internet, those whose natural media is a screen and where the reader not only recieves the information, but decides wheter to participate in the game or not.
