What is Cyberspace? (Reply 1)

Hey! The blog has been going strong for three years...thankyou very much. :p Not that many posters (except me) but there have been TONS of lurky hits. (Yes, YOU out there....I know you're watching) :)

Do read the archive of previous entries. Some interesting stuff there (if I say so myself).

Ok, my cyberspace mental model. What I 'see' it as in my mind's eye is, perhaps, something like this picture that I very recently found. Futuristic, digital architecture in a vast dark void....islands of neon that are welcoming evidence of 'life' accenting the shadows and connected by autobahn-like grids of twinkling binary code.

I'm probably very much influenced by William Gibson's description. Or am I? It's not too surprising how a limited palette of colours and common themes dominate most peoples' conception of the place....is it? ' Think about it.
