eWorld is an innovative, informative, powerful and yet easy to use online service that was launched by Apple Computer Inc. eWorld for Macintosh is an 'online town square' which provides a global electronic mail system together with news ,information and other services. Joining the eWorld community has been described as taking a stroll to the main square of a small university town, where there are a lot of interesting people and many fascinating places to visit. Becoming part of eWorld is easy and once people have found themselves there, it proves to be friendly and compelling.
For the Macintosh owners, the eWorld community consists of a neighbourhood of buildings, each of which represent a specific area of interest. Each building contains a series of online publications from well known publishers, containing valuable information along with interactive conferences and discussion boards. If you, for example are running a small business, you could browse through the latest issues of relevant magazines or if you join in an online conversation with people with similar interests as you, you would be able to share thoughts and ideas as well as gain some useful contacts.
The Apple Customer Center contains a wealth of product information, software updates and other resources directly from Apple. Subscribers can also discuss issues and exchange opinions with other Apple users and participate in dynamic, live conferences with guests from Apple. The technical library used by Apple's own support organization is available, along with other technical information including comprehensive answers to customers' frequently-asked questions. 
eWorld is one of the many new forms of new media that are contributing to the formation of a “global village”, where there seems to some sort of uniformity amongst people around the world in terms of their uses and needs for technology. eWorld offers its users to create their own online identities, where people can meet and interact with one another. eWorld is amazing as it is functions as a global community for those who are in touch with Apple and contributes to the constructions of the users identities and it contributes to the shift toward a “global village”.
