去郵局寄信、到商場購物、到旅行社訂出行計劃… 這樣的事情在網路走入人們的生活以後正在慢慢淡出歷史舞臺。

 

能在網上解決的事情就不用在現實生活中費精力、費時間了。

 

可是,你想過嗎?其實這個世界上還是有那麼一些人並不怎麼了解網路的。

 

For many of us below a certain age, use of the web is routine, and our children have only ever known a world where going online is an accepted norm of everyday life. However the fact remains that there is still a significant part of the population who do not use the Internet, either because their social situation precludes access, or because they are part of an older generation for whom the Web still seems something of a mystery. These people are now being referred to as nonliners.

 

  對於中年以下的人來說,運用網路是件習慣成自然的事情,而我們的下一代所了解的世界也是一個將上網作為生活常態的地方。事實上,仍然有相當一部分人並不使用因特網,可能是因為他們所處的社會環境沒有上網的條件;也可能是因為他們出生的年代較早,對他們來說,網路還是個神秘的事物。這些人就被稱為 nonliner(無網人員)。

 

  Nonliner is of course a play on onliner, blending this word with the prefix non-, meaning 'not'. The term seems to be very recent, only having popped up in the last year or so, amidst a growing awareness of the need to help a significant minority who do not possess the skills or resources to access the Internet.

 

  Nonlinear這個詞很明顯是對onliner(線上人員)這個詞的戲改,加了前綴non,表示“無”。這個詞大概是去年才出現的,與之一同走入人們視線的是,越來越多的人意識到還有相當一部分人缺少連接到因特網的技能或資源,他們需要幫助。
