<div>The netizen for me as well as the computer and communication aspects of the Internet are the 3 aspects of the critical resources</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For the computer - the general purpose nature, for the communication - the ability to be have the ability to do networking and to communicate with people and machines around the world, for the netizen aspect, the ability to participate in what happens online, not to be only a receiver, but a participator, someone who can interact with others and with the computers and networks, to be able to contribute to and have a way to be part of determining what will happen with the internet and its development.
