Dude Network: Dude and the Internet


The Internet is the great white whale of Dude Theory, a subject under intense scrutiny by the authors and researchers.
  • Fame - Strictly defined, it would be to be well known, or in the public eye. This can occur on any scale. Mongerism, promotion of dude economy, dudes able to sustain “independence”. The Social Network is indeed working.
  • Autism - Without speculating on possible causal relationship, it is enough to note the rise of autism (and asperger’s) diagnoses and the compatibility of these types with the functional structure of the internet and compartmentalizing technologies in general.
