Mobile Communications : New Technology and Old Archetypes
Harmeet Sawhney 한국방송학회 2004 한국방송학회 세미나 및 보고서 Vol.- No.-
Over the last three decades there has been a voluminous output of research on new technologies. It has, however, largely stayed at the descriptive level because soon after we have mapped out and described a new technology yet another one appears on the horizon and drawn by its newness we move our attention. Today, our attention is moving, for good reasons, towards mobile technologies. However, in our rush to study the ""new"" new technology we should not get caught in the same cycle. One way to raise our thinking to a higher conceptual plane is to revisit research on ""old"" new technologies and look for parallels at increasingly higher levels of abstraction. In this spirit, this paper compares and contrasts DoCo Mo's I-Mode system with Minitel, the cynosure of the videotex era. The analysis suggests that the architecture of I-Mode resembles that of the ""controlled-closed"" Minitel rather than of ""uncontrolled-open"" Internet. It argues that I-Mode is more of a mobile Minitel than mobile Internet. This shift in metaphor is important because I-Mode has been embraced as the wireless avatar of the Internet in some quarters. The paper cautions us against raising I-Mode to the level of an exemplar lest it curtail our imagination about other alternative architectures for mobile Internet.
