The first of all, new information technology revolution is above anything else cultural creation. Therefore, culture of information technology is indispensable for making information society.
Secondly, culture of information technology consists of meritocratic culture of techno-elites, hacker culture, culture of virtual community, culture of entrepreneur and communication culture. Informationalization is made possible only when these cultures are articulated carefully.
Thirdly, the characteristics of the process of informationalization in each countries are outcome of unique combination of each component of culture of information technology. We have varieties of information society. The prototype of information society (Silicon Valley) has been articulated each component of information technology in equal weight. But information societies in east Asia are characterized by relative weakness of science and libertarian ideology. European model of information society has human resource development strategy top on the articulation of each component of culture of information technology. Latin America and African continent are looking for strategy to solve severe digital divide in vein.
Fourthly, informationalization in Japan is facing to the fundamental problem. That is the contradiction between culture of information technology and Japanese culture. Japanese culture is characterized by sense of Japanese cultural, racial distinctness and corporatism among exclusive members.
