This is the first generation to grow up with the Internet the way the rest of us grew up with rock and roll and television. From the boardrooms of a high tech corporation in Vancouver to an island in Washington State, to the back streets of East Palo Alto, a new generation of kids is already creating Life on the Internet.

Yet, like them, it's a creation that is still growing, still finding its own place. And, also like them, it seems more and more destined to mature into something worth knowing, something that can make a contribution, technology which will help secure a future for Life on the Internet.
