One example of a common use of these concepts is Amazon Book Search a Amazon Book Search Mail User Agent that can be instructed to be in either "on-line" Amazon Book Search or "off-line" states. One such MUA is Microsoft Outlook. When it is "on-line" it will attempt to connect to mail servers (to check for new mail at regular intervals, for Amazon Book Search example), and when it is "off-line" it Amazon Book Search will not attempt to make any such connections. The Amazon Book Search "on-line" or "off-line" state of the MUA Amazon Book Search does not necessarily reflect the connection Amazon Book Search status between the computer on which it is running and Amazon Book Search Internet. The user may have the computer Amazon Book Search itself on-line, connected Amazon Book Search to Internet Amazon Book Search via a cable modem or an ADSL connection, Amazon Book Search but may wish for Outlook to be off-line, so that it makes no attempt to send or to receive Amazon Book Search messages. Or the computer may be Amazon Book Search configured to employ a dial-up connection on demand (whenever an application such as Outlook Amazon Book Search attempts to make connection Amazon Book Search to a server), but the connection may be an expensive Amazon Book Search telephone call from the particular location in which the computer currently happens Amazon Book Search to be (such as a hotel room) and the user may

Amazon Book Search

not wish Outlook to trigger making that call every 5 Amazon Book Search or 10 minutes to check for mail. Another example

Amazon Book Search

of the use of these concepts is in the world of Carolina North Public Record Search digital audio technology. A tape Amazon Book Search recorder, digital editor, or other device that is "on-line" is one whose clock is under the control of Amazon Book Search the clock of a "synchronization master" device. When the sync master commences playback, the "on-line" device automatically synchronizes itself to the master and commences playing from the same point in the recording. Whereas a device that Amazon Book Search is "off-line" Amazon Book Search uses no external clock reference and relies upon Amazon Book Search its own internal clock. When a large number of devices are connected to a sync master, it Amazon Book Search is often Amazon Book Search convenient, if one Amazon Book Search wants to hear just the output of one single device, to take it off-line, because if the device is played back on-line all synchronized devices have to locate the playback point and wait for each other to be in synchronization.[2] (For further related discussion, see Amazon Book Search MIDI timecode, word sync, and recording system synchronization.) A Amazon Book Search third Amazon Book Search example of a Amazon Book Search common use of these concepts is a web Amazon Book Search browser that can be instructed to be in either "on-line" or Amazon Book Search "off-line" states. The browser only attempts Amazon Book Search to fetch pages from servers whilst in the "on-line" state. In the Amazon Book Search "off-line" state, users can perform offline browsing, where pages can be browsed using local Amazon Book Search copies of those pages that have previously been downloaded whilst in the "on-line" state. This can be useful Amazon Book Search when the computer itself is also Amazon Book Search off-line, with connection to Internet expensive or impossible. The pages are either downloaded implicitly into the web browser's own cache, as a result Amazon Book Search of prior on-line browsing by the user, or explicitly by the browser being configured to keep local copies of certain web pages, which it keeps updated when the browser Amazon Book Search is in the on-line state, either by checking that the local copies are up-to-date at regular Amazon Book Search intervals or by checking that the local copies are Amazon Book Search up-to-date whenever the browser is switched to Amazon Book Search the Amazon Book Search on-line state. One such Amazon Book Search web browser capable of being explicitly configured to download pages for offline browsing is Internet Explorer. When pages are added to Amazon Book Search the "Favourites" list, they can be marked for being

Amazon Book Search

made "available for offline browsing". Internet Explorer will download to local copies both the Adoption Search Canada Htm marked page and, optionally, all of the pages that it links to. In Amazon Book Search Internet Explorer version Amazon Book Search 6, the level of direct and indirect Amazon Book Search links, the maximum amount of local disc space allowed to be consumed, and the schedule on which Key Word Search local copies are checked Amazon Book Search to see whether Amazon Book Search they are up-to-date, are Amazon Book Search configurable for each The Amazon Book Search ideas of "on-line" Amazon Book Search and Amazon Book Search "off-line" have been generalized from computing and telecommunication into the field of human interpersonal relationships. The distinction between what is considered "on-line" and Lexus Nexus Search what is Amazon Book Search considered "off-line" has become a subject of study in the field of Amazon Book Search sociology.[7] The distinction between "on-line" and Amazon Book Search "off-line" is conventionally seen as the distinction between computer-mediated communication and face-to-face communication (e.g. face time), respectively. Amazon Book Search "On-line" is virtuality, and "off-line" is reality (e.g. real life or meatspace). Slater states that this distinction is "obviously far too simple". To support his argument that the distinctions in relationships are more complex than a simple "on-line"/"off-line" Amazon Book Search dichotomy, he observes that some people draw no distinction between Amazon Book Search an "on-line" relationship, such as indulging in cybersex, and Amazon Book Search an "off-line" Amazon Book Search relationship, such as being pen-pals. He also argues that even the telephone can be regarded as an "on-line" experience in some circumstances, and that the blurring Amazon Book Search of the distinctions

Amazon Book Search

between the Amazon Book Search uses of various technologies (such as PDA and mobile telephone, Auto Price Search television and Internet, and telephone and voice-over-IP) has made it "impossible to use the term Amazon Book Search 'on-line' meaningfully in the sense that was employed by the first generation of Internet research".[7] Slater

Amazon Book Search

asserts that there are legal Amazon Book Search and regulatory pressures to reduce the distinction between "on-line" and "off-line", with a "general tendency to assimilate online to offline and erase the distinction", stressing, however, that this does not mean that on-line relationships are How Search Engine Works being reduced to pre-existing off-line relationships. He conjectures that Amazon Book Search greater legal status may be assigned to on-line relationships (pointing out that contractual relationships, such as business transactions, on-line are already seen as just as "real" as their off-line counterparts), Amazon Book Search although he states it to be hard Amazon Book Search to Amazon Book Search imagine courts Amazon Book Search awarding palimony to people who have had a purely on-line sexual relationship. He also conjectures that an "on-line"/"off-line" distinction may be seen by people as "rather quaint and not quite comprehensible" within 10 years The distinction Amazon Book Search where Amazon Book Search "on-line" is seen as virtuality and "off-line" as reality is sometimes inverted, with "on-line" Amazon Book Search concepts being used to define and to Amazon Book Search explain "off-line" activities, rather than (as Amazon Book Search per the conventions of the desktop metaphor with its desktops, trash cans, Amazon Book Search folders, and so forth) the other way around. Several cartoons by The New Yorker have satirized this. One includes Saint Peter asking for a user name and a password before admitting a man into Heaven. Another illustrates "the off-line store" where "All items are actual size!", Amazon Book Search where shoppers may "Take it home as soon as you pay for it!", and where "Merchandise may be handled prior to purchase!".
