New technologys

The evolution of information technologies and communication requires a redefinition of the workspace. Today it is faster to send an e-mail than a letter by mail. Fewer and fewer will be the worker to travel to work, and increasingly will be working to come up to the employee. Working from home seems to be increasingly the case at a time when some flexibility has become one of the subjects on the agenda. The world is watching today the integration and implementation of new tools that allow greater speed and efficiency in information exchange.
Access to networks inside and outside the enterprise, the videoconferencing network, the shared use of documents in real time and the redistribution of phone calls are some examples of these new technologies.
New communication technologies have brought huge benefits to many sectors of society. We can see how he helped in the process of information retrieval through the bibliographic databases on CD-ROM and online, but also in obtaining the desired content itself. The electronic journals depict a portion of this technological advance, with advantages and disadvantages both in its "physical" as bases that make it available. The purpose of this presentation is to report our experiences and considerations about this new mode of publication.
Today there are several "sites" on the Internet that provide electronic journals. In this scenario, we find a wide variety of interfaces, which sometimes undertake research results, since the difficulties encountered by users to perform a literature search and generators are elements desenregelantes search inefficient or even incorrect. It is understandable that several factors contributing to that there is such diversity and even user interface changes in bibliographic search engines, because in this globalized era in which we live, everything seems to change very quickly. The Internet itself appears as the main trigger of many changes, where there is almost a "controlled anarchy". The sites follow trends so much as design targets.
We need information professionals be alert to changing that operate in this field constantly updated.

These new technologies are attached to the computer, which revolutionized all forms of communication and production. In the digital age, the individual may share the same technology regardless of where you are: at home, at work, traveling, shopping or conducting banking transactions. Technological change is always evolving and improving. This causes many to question: how to survive there without using the technology? According to experts, the answer is no. "We can not live without it. The use of this technology is already implemented in the culture of all peoples. There are different realities of access to new equipment, but they are everywhere. For more someone says that does not live directly with this technology we must remember that the simple act of going to the bank, pay a parking ticket with a magnetic or electronic card, use the phone, watch television, go outside and expose themselves to dozens of cameras that monitor us everywhere, insert any citizen in this modern world.
I currently do not imagine myself living without all these new technologies, whether at home, at work, on the street ...
