Impact of the Internet in making the transformation of today's world and the sphere of social communication deserves to be called a revolution. Revolutionary changes are occurring in the culture as a way of communicating. Their foundation is the most profound transition from analog to digital encoding at least one of the elements of the communications path as a condition for the introduction of the newest communications technologies.
The basis of human relationships is communication. Without it, it is impossible to speak of a human being and society. On the other hand, today becomes unnecessary transport of material culture media. Replaces it with direct transport of thought. We can see, by our eyes combine culture with the culture media. Telecom sets increasingly shape civilization and cultural processes. Changes the traditional understanding of concepts, for example civilization and culture. For this reason, you can venture to say that the Internet becomes a new platform for intercultural communication.
This is expressed through new forms of society.
Special importance is also a new model of education.
Our education does not end at school, but lasts, lasts and lasts (life-long learning). But ICT is not an ideal thing, it has its weaknesses.For some, especially young people, the computer becomes a daily routine, something very natural. For others, a barrier, often only a psychological, not to move.

Modern educational tools
Probably no one imagine life without the use of such media as radio, television or telephone. No wonder the increasingly widespread use of computers in virtually every area of life. Media - Computer, Internet, TV, radio, newspapers and books have become a means of supporting learning and education, not only for children but also for adults.
The Prognostics are agreed that success in the information society will depend on the level of education of people forming a society. Society of the future will be converted into a society of human learning, and knowledge and skills needed for information search will be a valued commodity in the market.
The new educational system geared to training the whole of society throughout their lives can not be based solely on direct contact with students learning in the class. This requires the development and implementation of the practice of new methods of teaching seriously, and not only supplement the old methods developed centuries ago, assuming the central role of the teacher, the incidental use of computers.
Such methods, however, require new, substantially higher than the competence of teachers. The best method of learning is working. Opportunities for information systems, among other supporting interpretation, diagnosis, control, planning and design will raise the effectiveness of learning by increasing interaction with learners - particularly by giving them many opportunities for action. The role of the teacher in the learning process thus understood, is primarily an organization of students in order to form its independent learning skills, self-seeking knowledge, not only to solve problems themselves, but putting the problems themselves and, finally, teamwork, and that in terms of inter-and international.
A major educational tool can and should become the Internet. Today, only there can be up to current knowledge and - more importantly - constantly updated. In implementing the students to actively seek knowledge in a computer network in shaping their habit of continuous learning and active attitude to the process of learning - which gives better results than trying to teach, at which the student is the passive object of his efforts and the efforts of the teacher.
This film promotes a modern educational tools in a Polish school:
E-learnig and new technology in classrooms are the best way to upgrade our eduaction system and will help young student in ther education and that it will bring brigter future in their path wich is studying.

Habet homo rationem et murem
Did anyone of you considered having no connection to the Internet, or other media?
I did... and my vision was strange and frightening.
How many of you press the "on" button and then go prepare a breakfast and eat it in front of your computer?
Did you know, that in Poland 41 % of people starts this way their day?
Just 10years earlier the day started with breafast i front of TV, no Tv is replaced by computer.
We, people tend to adore things, that make us do less, e.g. on-line stores with home delivery.
media explorer prof. Wiesław Godzic says, that we can clearly see that people miss their computers. "The have to go home to check what new on-line. They are so attached to their computer that they don't like others to log on into it. They want it for themselves. They consider purchase of new equipment as an important change in their life. Those people are homo internetus.”
The advent of the Internet was like a great earthquake. Traditionalist industrial society had to learn to send e-mails, chat and search the web. Me and my friends are still rocznikami who have Internet and a computer to learn from primary school. But now, children are born with the proverbial 'mouse in his hand. " My 3 year old cousin can enable the Teletubbies in the DVD and knows how to turn on computer and what it is google. Prof Godzic calls them “native users”.
I can’t imagine not check my facebook account or my mailbox. Some people say “Day without Internet is a lost day”.
Internet gives the illusion of reality fully. We live in a culture of cuttings: not listened to entire albums, but some songs stored in MP3 file, trailers (ie movie trailers), which replace the whole (the same species are like the new film), rapid and surprising news in which we click intrigued, photocopies and scans.
But not everything is so sweet and good for my generation. People more likely sit in front of computer than in front of their colleagues. Social life goes on In the Internet, not in real life.
We can't say "stop the Internet bus, I'm leaving" because this is impossible. Our work and life is now based on media. We can't run, but we can be sceptic and have limited trust to it and have it all under control.
How many of you, of us get up the same way everyday? I know I do. I think life without Internet would be boring for us the "homo internetus".I think that some day all of our daily routines will be controlled by a remote.

Topic searched in google
When I was trying to create a post for the ICT I had nothing to write about but the result of looking for my inspiration was beyond my expectations. I thought that I now what ICT is, what it means and all notions to it.
But I couldn’t be more wrong.
The first thing was “lets see what google can say about ICT that I don’t know”. When I saw 846,000 results I was stunned. But I was stunned even more when I’ve read Jerzy Nowak’s article about ICT. The one thing in his work I didn’t know is Citizens of Information Society created a Charter for Innovation, Creativity and Access to Knowledge what is nothing less than Charter of Rights on the Information Society.
I didn’t know that the ICT needs to have that kind of charter.
What I find interesting, and what I can fully support and agree with it is education and access to knowledge. They want to improve, enhance, enrich end make more accessible education and knowledge in general.
I think it is a good idea. With this kind of better access to educations, like for example free e-books. In Poland for in most part you have to pay for the e-books. And the price is very much the same as it in bookstores if the book is there at all. Most of public libraries don’t have enough amount of books.
I’m a student and I’m from small city and I know how hard it was to find a good, properly written science book.
But what about authors? They are also citizens of ICT and writing books is their work. Who should pay them for their copyright? Can this problem be solved?
Access to the knowledge and education is important, but we can’t rob anyone’s Intellectual Property “for the sake of access to knowledge”. What do You think?

Information Society-the concept and related nations
We live in information society. Every day we start i the same way. We open our computers or watch tv or read papers for longing for new informations. One of us want to know what is going on i South Korea and the other what king of shoes Paris Hilton is wearing today.
20 years ago we could read and listen to news wroted in papers or showed in tv. Now world give us so many informations that we can pick the one we like or we're interested in and it don't have to be informations from one source.
The hunger of informations grew hand in hand with hunger for new technologies. 10 years ago I didn't have a cell phone or computer in my house and the only thing I wanted to have was a precious bike. Now when I look on my younger cousins I don't see the same dreams and hopes. Now they want to have a new, better cell every year and the dream of a precious bike make them laugh. I was shocked when my 2 year old nephew took a CD and knew where to put it and watch "Teletubbies".
Going back to informatons in society... In my opinion information now is in many cases more and more worthless. The explosion of new posibilities that came with new technologies was beyond our expectations. We were used to no cell phones, no e-mails, no messengers, no Facebook
and still informations spread wery quickly. And people were meeting ther people in real life, not in Internet. Now the new generation of young people wants to talk not face to face but with using computer.
So the conlcusion is: information society is good and we all know about it, that's nothing new or amazing, but it has some disadvatages that can provide to fall of the society and social life in the real world. This society we live in gives us so much opportunites but also it isolate our imgination. We'll stop talking and start texting to person next to us.

Some thoughts about blogging
I've blogged several times in my short life. Every time with the same effect at the end. I didn't knew what to write about. The say, that the beginnigs are difficult, I say - the bigginnig is easy, difficulty starts whet you have to keep on writing and posting.
Many times I asked myself, why do I blog? What I want to write about. Writing about new great pair of jeans, or about my pet's life or that color of my T-shirt and my sneakers does not interest anyone of my colleagues, so even less it will interest strangers.
I hate blogs with sugary sweet posts or dull report of somebody's life.
The blog has to be interesting... And that is the hardest thing to do. Half of a success in having a really good idea of blogging and strictly obey the rules of your idea. The second half is how do you write it.
People in our age need to have short, comprehensive and amusing information. We live in a "always late" times so our story should be so quick that you can read it during your way to work.
When times are like this people and the society are the same. We have to match to all the technological momentum and requirements that modern world puts us into.
We agree on that becouse otherwise we will be left far behind that, was stays "here and now".
With internet we can stay home or be any place we want to and still be in touch with newest broadcast, or informations and be connected to the one we had lelft at home or still be in work.
But what if all this informations and being still "in touch" and "on time" will make in us no desire to know the other person face to face ,"in real"? what would it be like? Look around, it's already happening...
