However the video I included in my blog seems to be a source that educated people on the overall concept as shown by the comments I received on the blog.<\/p>\n<p>Zia\u2019s blog [1] also had some vital information on the concept of how users can be viewed on the web however it has sparked an inner debate within myself on whether an individual can be both a resident and an immigrant at a specific phase of his or her life. As I was during further readings, I came across Saber\u2019s blog [2] and the image that illustrated the concept of digital residents and digital immigrants as a continuum rather than two separate boxes cleared the hypothesis I had earlier. Namat\u2019s blog [3] was also of great interest and the idea he presented by using himself as an example saying he perhaps lives a significant amount of his life online whilst ascribing it to the world of the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century we are now in, where virtually whatever you want to do has some link to the internet and with the coming of The Internet of Things, individuals have no chance than to embrace the fully connected world we are incorporating.<\/p>\n<p>Overall having read and commented on my colleagues\u2019 blogs I personally feel that the concept of digital resident and immigrant is a topic that is and will be evolving and perhaps more research is needed in order\u00a0to fully grasp the concept as from the blogs I have read, references were all from similar sources hence leading me to have that hypothetical-thinking.<\/p>\n<p>References:<\/p>\n<p>[1] <a href=\"https:\/\/ziaahmed2014.wordpress.com\/2015\/02\/03\/hello-world\/\">https:\/\/ziaahmed2014.wordpress.com\/2015\/02\/03\/hello-world\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[2] <a href=\"https:\/\/saberhamidi.wordpress.com\/\">https:\/\/saberhamidi.wordpress.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[3] <a href=\"https:\/\/namatsadiqee.wordpress.com\/2015\/02\/04\/4\/\">https:\/\/namatsadiqee.wordpress.com\/2015\/02\/04\/4\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/aaaliyu.wordpress.com\/196\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/comments\/aaaliyu.wordpress.com\/196\/\" \/><\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/pixel.wp.com\/b.gif?host=aaaliyu.wordpress.com&#038;blog=42102080&#038;%23038;post=196&#038;%23038;subd=aaaliyu&#038;%23038;ref=&#038;%23038;feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The concepts of digital residents and digital immigrants have proved to be yet a parley issue as an enormous number of people have their own views and opinions of the topic.
