互联网推进的信息共享及社会意义

互联网在中国投入公共服务已经十六年。十六年间，互联网已经成为中国社会运行的基础设施，网络信息传播已经成为社会主流信息传播方式，网络信息技术已经深入到中国社会生活的各个领域，对中国社会的发展产生着巨大的推动。

The Internet has been in public service in China for 16 years. During this period, the Internet has become part of the infrastructure that helps operate Chinese society. Online communication has become a mainstream way for the flow of information of society, and online information technology has entered various social sectors of the country, which is a powerful impetus for the development of Chinese society.

仅最近十年间，中国互联网网民数量增长了2385.21%，中国网站数量增长了10123.9%，中国域名数量增长了11139.9%，中国国际出口带宽增长了80792.79%。

In only the past ten years, the number of Chinese Internet users increased by 2,385.21 percent, the number of Chinese Websites 10,123.9 percent, the number of Chinese domain names 11,139.9 percent, and China's international bandwidth 80,792.79 percent.

人们在体验着网络信息传播所主导的各种服务、感受着互联网提供的丰富的工具性功能的同时，能够看到，互联网信息技术比人类历史上的任何科学发明都更加广泛、更加深刻地影响着社会生活的各个领域、各个层面，各个环节，各个时段，从而改变着人们的思维方式和行为方式，改变着社会的存在方式与运行方式。

While experiencing the various services dominated by online information transmission and the functions provided by the Internet, people can see that Internet information technology has been affecting various sectors more extensively and deeply than any other scientific invention in human history, and has hence been changing people's modes of thinking and lifestyles as well as the way society exists and operates.

十余年间，互联网推动着整个中国社会的信息共享。中国各个地区、各个层级、各个类别的专业媒体和组织机构纷纷在互联网上建造了自己的信息传播与信息服务的平台，形成了一个功能丰富、结构多元、布局广泛、规模庞大的信息传播集群。这一信息传播集群正在施放着日益强大的信息传播能量。

In the past ten years, the Internet has propelled information sharing within Chinese society. Media and other organizations have built their own information communication and services platforms on the Internet one after another, which has formed extensive information-communication groups with various functions and structures.

在互联网技术创造的新的信息传播环境中，今天中国公众的知情范围不断扩大，公众表达空间不断扩展，公众监督权利不断加强，公众协商机制不断完善，中国公民信息权利的实现和公民社会的建造都赢得了新的空间。

In today's new environment of information transmission created by Internet technology, the public's scope of knowledge and expression has been continuously expanding and rights to supervise growing and consultative mechanisms improving, which have won new spaces for the realization of the information rights of the Chinese public and the building of civil society in China.

今天，互联网技术在中国的应用正在告别互联网早期公共信息传播与私人信息传播的初始形态，完成着从简单到复杂、从单一到多元、从初级到高级的历史演进，释放着它推进社会生活各个领域发生变革的巨大潜能。

Today, applications of Internet technology in China is bidding farewell to the preliminary state of being a tool for public and private information transmission and finishing the historical evolution from simplicity to complexity, oneness to pluralism, and a primary level to an advanced level, releasing its huge potential to propel transformations in various social sectors.

面向社会各个群体、针对社会各种需求的网络信息传播服务，被政府机构网站、专业组织网站、专业媒体网站、各类商业网站不断地开掘和完善。在网络技术的推进下，社会公众不仅赢得了获取信息的更多的便利，更重要的是他们也开始作为创造主体，加入了信息制作、信息传播、信息服务提供的全过程。

Websites of the government, professional organizations, media and other commercial Websites have continuously explored and improved online information communication services to satisfy the needs of various groups of society. With the help of Internet technology, the public has won more conveniences for obtaining information and more importantly, they have begun to assume the role of authors to participate in the entire process of the production, transmission and information delivery.

如果说五年前新闻传播学界谈到的媒体融合，更多地还是指网络信息技术正在改变着信息的采集、合成、传播和经营的各个环节的运行方式，把历史上不同媒体形态的独立演进过程统一为一个更加丰富、更加有序的过程。那么今天，随着Blog、Tag、SNS、RSS、wiki等代表着Web 2.0新一代网络信息传播模式的核心技术日益广泛的应用，我们则更深刻地感到网络信息技术正在推进的信息传播的技术手段、功能结构和形态模式的界限改变及由此引发的社会运行方式的变革。

If the media convergence talked about by the academia of journalism and communication five years ago referred to Internet technology's change of the modes of operation of various segments of the gathering, synthesis, transmission and business development of the information and the integration of various independent evolutions of media types in history into a richer and more orderly process. Today, with the ever-increasing applications of core technology of the new generation of Web2.0 mode of information communication represented by blogs, tags, SNS, RSS and wiki, we deeply feel that Internet information technology is propelling the changes of technical approaches, functional structures and pattern modes to further change the transformation of the modes of the operation of society.

我们看到，今天，信息的传播者正在从制作信息到聚合信息，从发布信息到经营信息，从输出本体信息传播能量到整合网络信息能量。与此同时，信息的接收者从被动接受信息到主动创作信息，从单一获取信息到全面利用信息，从信息索取的孤立个体变为信息交流的聚合群体。这个变化是深刻的，它不仅推进着网络信息总量的急剧扩张，而且推进着网络信息的更大范围的更加便利的共享。

Nowadays, we have seen that transmitters of information are aggregating information instead of producing it, operating instead of publishing, and integrating the power of online information instead of releasing the power of the transmission of the information of their own. At the same time, receivers of information produce information instead of passively receiving information, fully use information instead of only obtaining information, and they have changed into aggregating groups of information communication from independent individuals seeking information. These changes are profound. They will not only propel the rapid expansion of the total amount of online information but also promote more convenient sharing of online information in a larger scope.

网络已经成为人类共创信息与共享信息的平台，人类在长期历史间创造并承袭着的信息传播模式，正在网络信息技术的推动下发生本质性改变。互联网正在将信息传播的能量从网络延伸到网络之外的更为广阔的社会生活领域，对社会生活的各个方面产生着影响与改变。

The Internet has become a platform for the world to produce and share information. The modes of information communication created and inherited throughout history are undergoing essential transformations propelled by Internet information technology. The Internet is extending the power of information transmission beyond the Internet to broader social spheres and is exerting influence on various social sectors.

互联网所推进的信息传播模式的改变，加大了信息提供的总量，深化了信息价值的开掘，提升了信息使用的效率。

The change of the modes of information transmission propelled by the Internet has increased the total amount of information offered, deepened the excavation of the values of information and improved the efficiency of the use of information.

互联网不仅是伟大的技术革命者，也是社会变革的推动者。十余年来，我们已经经历了几个重要的变革期：

The Internet is not only a great technological revolution but also a propeller of social transformation. In the past ten years, we have experienced several important phases of transformation:

Web1.0时代：这是信息总量剧增，全球信息互联，信息综合提供，网络数据检索为其主要特征的网络泛传播时代。这一时代其主要的信息提供模式仍然是机构为主体的公共传播。我们感受的是信息总量的急剧增长，信息获取的及时、全面、精准和便利，大型门户网站和网际搜索引擎在满足我们综合性信息需求的同时，帮助我们在整个互联网的信息海洋中实施导航、检索、诠释和分析。每个人与世界范围的信息联系起来，人类极大地扩张了自己的观察视野。

The era of Web1.0: It's an extensive online communication era featuring the dramatic increase of the total amount of information, the linking of global information, the integrated supply of information and online data search. The main mode of information supply was still public communication dominated by institutions. What we felt were dramatic increases of the total amount of information, the timeliness, completeness, accurateness and convenience of the acquisition of information. And while satisfying our comprehensive needs for information, large portal Websites and international search engines helped us navigate, search, annotate and analyze through the sea of information. Individuals were connected to worldwide information and thus had their horizons expanded.

Web2.0时代：这是媒介形态多元，个体传播强化，网际协作普及为其主要特征的网络社会形成的时代。这一时代信息的提供模式从形态上看是以视频信息为主的多元媒体形态的融合，从信息传播的渠道上看是以移动网络为主的宽带网络的应用，从信息传播目标上看是以满足人的多元社会需求而进行的个体之间、个体与群体间、群体与群体之间的信息交流，从网络信息的结构的演进功能上看是网络社会结构的形成。Web2.0时代，我们感受的是人与人之间信息交流时空界限的突破，个人信息传播能量的扩张，个人与群体之间通过网络建立起各式关联，网络社会的属性清晰显现，网络世界与人类社会之间的能量交互变得更为顺畅，更为直接，更为强大。

The era of Web2.0: It's an era when cyber society took shape, mainly featuring the diversification of media patterns, the reinforcement of personal communication, and the popularization of online collaboration. The modes of information supply in this era is respectively, from the perspectives of media types, ways of communication, targets of communication and the evolutional function of the structure of online information, convergence of various media types dominated by video, the application of broadband networks dominated by mobile networks, the information exchanges among individuals and groups to satisfy people's diversified social needs, and the establishment of the structure of cyber society. In the Web2.0 era, we felt the break of the borders of time and space for human communication, the expansion of the power of the transmission of personal information, individuals and groups using the Internet to establish various connections, the visible emergence of the attributes of the cyber society, and power exchanges between cyberspace and society became more smooth, direct and powerful.

Web3.0时代：它将是物体全面互联、客体准确表达、人类精确感知、信息智慧解读的时代。这个时代将生成一个物质世界与人类社会全方位连接起来的信息交互网络，我们感受的是由此生成的超大尺度、无限扩张、层级丰富、和谐运行的复杂网络系统，呈现在我们面前的将是现实世界与数字世界聚融的全新的文明景观。在这个或许可以被称之为Web3.0的时代，人类将赋予物质世界自我表述、自我展现的机能，在与客观世界的直接信息交互的基础上，获得更高级别的与物质世界和谐共生的智慧。

The ea of Web3.0: This will be an era when things are fully connected, objects expressed correctly, people perceive the world accurately, and the wisdom of information is fully explained. In this era, an interactive information network will be born, which fully connects the material world and society. We will feel a complex network system on a super-imposed scale with unlimited expansion and harmonious operation. Before our eyes will be a brand-new landscape of civilization of the fusion of the real world and the digital world. In this era, which might be dubbed Web3.0, people will enable the material world to express and show itself and on the basis of direct information exchanges with the objective world, acquire more advanced wisdom to coexist with it harmoniously.

今天的网络信息技术正在推进着人类社会与客观世界的全程信息交互系统的建设。在这个系统中，不仅个人与个人之间、个人与群体之间、群体与群体之间、文化与文化之间的新的信息模式和社会结构形式正在形成，而且过去看似完全被动的物质客体也将因人的智慧而得到主动表达的智慧机能，这一技术的应用趋势推进着人与客观世界的全程信息交流，推动着人类社会的运行效率的提高，推进着人类社会与大千世界的和谐共生。包括中国网在内的所有中国网络媒体都将在这个重大的趋势下获得更为广阔的发展空间。

Today's Internet information technology is propelling the building of the full-range information exchange system between society and the objective world. In this system, besides the ongoing formation of new modes of information and social structure among individuals, groups and cultures, the material objects, which were seen as completely passive, will acquire intelligence to express themselves thanks to human intelligence. This trend of technological application is propelling the full-range exchange of information between society and the objective world, the efficiency of operation of the society and the harmonious coexistence of society and the boundless universe. All Chinese online media, including China.org.cn, will win broader space for development in the wake of this major trend.

今天的网络数字技术推进着信息传播的两个发展趋向：

Today's Internet digital technology is propelling information communication to develop in two ways:

一是个体信息能量的深度开掘。RSS，博客，有文字记录功能和多媒体交互能的即时通讯平台，标示地理定位信息的数码相机，有线与无线的各种信息传播渠道，包括IPAD在内的千姿百态的个人信息使用终端，所有这些技术都使得个人信息的获取、创造、传播和使用获得了日益强大的技术支持。网络数字技术在满足个体信息需求的同时，正在深入开掘着每一个生命个体的信息创造与信息传播的能量。

1. The deep excavation of the power of personal information technologies, which includes RSS, blogs, instant-messaging platforms with text recording and interactive multimedia functions, digital cameras with geographical location information, various cable and wireless channels of information communication, various personal-information terminals such as the iPad have given increasingly powerful technological support to the acquisition, creation, transmission and use of personal information. While satisfying the needs of individuals to acquire information, Internet digital technology is digging for the power to produce and transmit information from each and every individual.

二是网际信息能量的规模集成。以WIKI为其代表的网络信息建造的技术原则与技术模式，正在日益全面地聚集着网际信息的能量，推进着互联网信息的整合与整个网际范围的信息协作。互联网信息的全程连通、全程采集、全程分析、全程使用已经成为网络信息传播的趋势；基于个体生命信息创造的整个网际的信息协作已经成为今天宏大网络信息工程的主流建造方式。 更多信息请访问：http://www.engbus.cn/

2. The large-scale integration of the power of online information. The technical principle and mode for the construction of online information represented by wiki are aggregating the power of the online information in an increasingly broader manner and propelling the integration of online information and collaboration of information of the entire Internet. The full-range connection, gathering, analysis and use of online information have become a trend of the communication of online information; information collaboration across the Internet based on individuals' creation of information has become today's mainstream approach to build massive online information projects.

今天的网络数字技术正在以满足人的信息需求为核心目标，以扩张个人的信息交流能力和强化社会的信息关联能力为主要途径，全面调整着互联网的信息创造机制、信息获取机制、信息整合机制，和信息使用机制。互联网平台所承载的信息采集技术、信息导航技术，信息整合技术，信息诠释技术，信息控制技术正在不断突破着人们获取信息、传播信息、分析信息和使用信息的时空限制，正在把信息创造与信息使用的自由越来越多地给予每一个人、每一个群体、每一个民族、每一个国度，把每一个人、每一个群体、每一个民族、每一个国度与人类的文明世界连接起来，从而促进不同群体、不同文化之间的了解，推进整个人类文明能量之间的沟通。

With satisfying people's needs for information as the core goal, and strengthening personal capability of information communication and social capability of connecting information, today's digital information technology is, in an all-around way, adjusting to the Internet's mechanisms of the creation, acquisition, integration and use of information. Information gathering, navigation, integration, annotation and control technology based on the Internet is giving more and more freedom of the creation and use of information to every person, group, nation, and country, linking them together, promoting the understanding between different groups and cultures, and promoting the exchanges of the power of civilization.

互联网信息传播技术第一次让人类的文明进程在现实文明形态之外拥有了一个数字文明形态，这个数字文明形态绝对不只是对现实文明形态的复制和存储，而是有着它自身的运行规律与能量，两个文明形态之间日益融合，进行着复杂的能量交互。更多信息请访问：http://www.engbus.cn/

Internet information communication technology for the first time in the course of civilization has offered a digital pattern of civilization in addition to the real-world civilization. This digital civilization pattern is never a simple copy or storage of the real-world civilization pattern, but it has its own laws and power of operation. The two patterns increasingly fuse with each other and conduct complex power exchanges.

在人类的历史间，信息传播的革命往往和社会发展的变革相互作用、互为因果。在中国改革开放的进程中，我们又一次见证着这种历史演进的规律。

Throughout history, the revolution of information communication and social transformation often interact with each other as both cause and effect. In the course of China's reform and opening-up, again we have witnessed this law of the evolution of history.
