Electronic Mail
? ?During
the past few years, scientists all over the world have suddenly found themselves
productively engaged in task they once spent their lives avoiding—writing, any
kind of writing, but particularly letter writing. Encouraged by electronic
mail’s surprisingly high speed, convenience and economy, people who never before
touched the stuff are regularly, skillfully, even cheerfully tapping out a great
deal of correspondence.
? ?Electronic networks, woven into the
fabric of scientific communication these days, are the route to colleagues in
distant countries, shared data, bulletin boards and electronic journals. Anyone
with a personal computer, a modem and the software to link computers over
telephone lines can sign on. An estimated five million scientists have done so
with more joining every day, most of them Communicating through a bundle of
interconnected domestic and foreign routes known collectively as the Internet,
or net.
? ?E-mail is starting to edge out the fax, the telephone,
overnight mail, and of course, land mail. It shrinks time and distance between
scientific collaborators, in part because it is conveniently asynchronous (异步的).
(Writer can type while their colleagues across time zones sleep; their message
will be waiting). If it is not yet speeding discoveries, it is certainly
accelerating communication.
? ?Jeremy Bernstein, the physicist and
science writer, once called E-mail the physicist’s umbilical cord (脐带). Later
other people, too, have been discovering its connective virtues. Physicists are
using it; college students are using it; everybody is using it; and as a sign
that it has come of age, the New Yorker has celebrated its liberating presence
with a cartoon—an appreciative dog seated at a keyboard, saying happily, "On the
Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog. " |
What does the sentence "If it is not yet speeding discoveries, it is certainly accelerating communication" most probably mean?
