Abstract
The two Vision chapters preceding (Chapters 5 and 7) each dealt with computer support for a type of organized activity: the Pulsar for groups, Igo for individuals. Taken together, they furnished examples of how participation in a group might affect an individual’s computer environment. Both of them involve relationships between multiple ORGANIZATIONAL ENTITIES—coordinated with one another more formally in the Pulsar than in Igo, but more usefully in Igo . Still — as we have seen — both Igo and the Pulsar are of very general utility.
