ABSTRACT
Russia has embraced the information age with great gusto. Not only does Russia boast some of the most talented and original computer programmers (and hackers) in the world, but the population itself, especially young teenagers, college students and young professionals, has fully engaged with cell phones, computers, instant messaging, e-mail and chat rooms. The role of the internet and computers will probably increase, not decrease, in the next decade, and with this in mind, we propose a short section on Russian terminology needed to function in this new and fast-paced world.
