Oh, this is a great argument. Brian Kelly asks, what are the implications of saying "it's not all about the technology?" He responds that it's like saying, "A computer's a computer, just like a fax machine is a fax machine – only nerds care about what goes on underneath the bonnet." Then the kicker: "But if this is true, what are the implications for accepting that we are in a postdigital age? Don't we then accept that our IT environment will be owned by the mega-corporations – Google and Microsoft... It strikes me that the postdigital agenda is a conservative one, in which we are asked to accept that we (in our institutions and in our working environment) cannot shape our digital environment."
