Abstract

Explores some characteristics of the information superhigway and the WWW metaphors in the light of the current developments in information technology. These characteristics constitute a form of conceptual slippage, which helps us detect and predict the tacit impact that the currently available information delivery systems are having on human cognition. The particular language associated with these systems evolve as a direct result of human cognitive adaptations to the demands, resources and constraints of highly technological environments. discusses the role of metaphor as a vehicle for self-expression, as mediated by criteria of relevance
