About this title

Synopsis

An inside look at the five-year evolution of the Blacksburg Electronic Village, from its original concept in 1991 to how it is managed today. Addresses the social, economic, technical, and educational impact of living in a "connected town," describing how community members use the network, and exploring what has and what hasn't worked. Examines the decisions and responsibilities that life in an "electronic village" thrusts upon civic leaders, educators, parents, and business professionals. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
