The Evolution of Online Knowledge Sharing
The development of online knowledge sharing began with the creation of the World Wide Web in 1989 and has evolved through various significant milestones. Initially, the sharing of information was geographically bound, with early libraries like the Library of Alexandria serving as hubs for knowledge. However, the internet revolutionized access to information, allowing anyone to publish content without centralized control. This shift towards decentralized knowledge exchange has impacted how we curate and consume information, revealing that the very mediums used for sharing influence the type of knowledge that is disseminated.
