What is real-world search, and why might it serve us in the digital world? The promise of a fully connected, digital paradigm is access to all the world’s information, at any time, everywhere. But there are some reasons why this ubiquity of access might not be a good thing.
- There is a risk that we become less confident in going out into the world without the information we need.
- We may lose the ability to find information other than by searching for it via a web browser.
- We may become less willing to seek information from people rather than machines.
