ABSTRACT
In the cyborg era, one of the most important conversations in the computers and writing community has been about the way meaning is made across contexts and with various technologies, especially the computer. Among prominent questions asked specifically about meaning-making and technologies are the following: Is there something unique about the way we read, write, and speak with technologies like the computer at the same time there is something unique about the various contexts in which we operate with them? Do we make meaning in new and different ways, or are we simply seeing a broadening or adaptation of what has come before? What specific implications does our meaning-making with technologies like the computer have for the evolution of meaning-making itself and for us as individuals?
