Abstract English

Owing to computers and Internet we live in a highly engeneered and interlaced world today. Into all ranges of our daily life the digitality has meanwhile taken introduction, also into the most intimate corners. We contact our friends via Facebook, settle banking transactions by Online-Banking and watch for Youtube, as the new desk can be assembled best. Do-It-Yourself – a meanwhile nearly 60 years old movement – is closed to a virtual revolution. Who would like to understand that should know what words such as Cocooning, Digital Native or Community denote in future.
