Technology has always influenced the way we live and build cities. The most recent communication technologies (internet, email, GPS, wireless networks, etc.) are directly shaping urban areas in very profound and pervasive ways. In this new internet course we will study how technology is creating new communities, generally called digital communities, and how people (urban planners, development professionals, business owners, etc.) are coping and taking advantage of new technological tools. We will explore a wide range of technological developments from infrastructure and utility placement, e-government, new live-work environments, new technological districts, teleworking, telecommuting, intelligent transportation systems, e-commerce, new entertainment districts, wireless networks in public spaces, video surveillance, the digital divide, etc.
