Blog #2 The Hyperlink

People of todays society normally do not think about the internet and especially not the internet hyperlinks. When we go to search engines and try to search for information the results that we get are not always what we want we get many of things that tend to come up. In todays society it is even very hard for a computer to find something so specific sometimes. This is why sometimes we dont always get what we want becasue there are so many areas that a computer can pull from to get information. When a computer is searching for certain information it is like human searching a library and the computer must be programed to make certain assumptions that us humans may think are not very important. Humans can make assumptions becasue we have the ability to whereas a computer doesnt have the common sense that us humans have to make these assumptions. This is why Dreyfus says that when counting on a computer we can only achieve 30% on searching the internet. This is because there are so many differences between a human doing research and a cumputer database doing it for you. The internet is a very hard place for a computer to get specific information from such a large area without being able to make assumptions.
