The Information Age (also know as the Computer Age, Digital Age, Silicon Age, New Media Age, or Media Age) is a historical period that began in the mid-20th century. It is characterized by a rapid shift from traditional industries, as established during the Industrial Revolution (de:Industrielle Revolution), to an economy centered on information technology.

According to the United Nations Public Administration Network, the Information Age was formed by capitalizing on computer microminiaturization, which led to modernized information systems and internetr communications as the driving force of social evolution.
