world wide web
in 1991 cern labs introduced the world wide web, allowing a more graphical representation of the topic to be discussed. this change lessened barriers to communication and enhanced community building. for example, the growth potential from linear to geometric was made possible through this change in medium because audiences could access static content more easily without the author’s knowledge or synchronicity in time. further, the graphical nature of the world wide web made the exchange of more medically relevant information more easily possible. lastly, the widespread use of the world wide web in pc's made during the mid-1990s made the technology available to a much wider audience than previous technologies. by 1997, the world wide web was the predominate medium for "ad hoc" online health communities to form.
