Maria Nowina-Konopka
Abstract
In the early 2000s, in the evolutionary process of the development of new media, the Internet has entered a phase called Web 2.0. This term was very popular in the initial period after it began to function; however, it is slowly losing its importance. In addition, this term is difficult when applied to issues relating to the multifaceted, technologically advanced, situated on the border of many fields and disciplines. Despite that, in practice, society is immersed in new technologies, scarcely engages in cognition issues, refers to the current level of the compilation of the virtual world. This problem is faced by Rafał Maciąg in his interesting monograph The Pragmatics of the Internet. Web 2.0 as the Environment. Thus, the purpose of this article is to present selected topics from this book and to critique some of the theses proposed by Maciag. The author of this article also reflects on whether Web 2.0 belongs to the realm of pragmatics functioning in a global network, or only to the realm of theory.
