Because digitised space in the most basic element is not traditional physical space of atoms, but bits, this has caused digital network society first feature - immaterial. In the Internet age, the emergence of a batch of the materialization of high value-added services industry, such as currency transactions, software development, gene research or satellite TV production, mostly belongs to high-tech areas. They are in development, operations, sales and development process with the usual expression of a traditional industry different common feature is that they have the immaterial.

In the digital network society, due to the development and application, eliminating the time and space distance, established a deja vu network society. As the London school of economics professor Denny Krishna have thought, "not materialize the goods completely ignore space and region" [1]. As the Internet to eliminate the space-time distance, making the earth became "global village". Digital information society lies in keeping the nature of time and space of distance is zero.

1.非物質性
由於數字化空間中最基本的元素並不是傳統物理空間的原子，而是“比特”，這就造成了數字化網絡社會的第壹個特征—非物質性。在網絡時代，出現了壹批非物質化的高附加值的服務行業，如貨幣交易、軟件開發、基因研究或衛星電視制作等，其中大部分屬於高科技領域。它們在開發、運營、銷售、發展過程中表現出來的與以往常傳統行業不同的壹個***同的特征就在於它們具有非物質性。
2.超時空性
在數字化網絡社會中，由於因特網的開發與應用，消除了時間與空間的距離，建立了壹個超時空的網絡社會。正如倫敦經濟學院教授丹尼·奎認為的那樣，“非物質化的商品全然無視空間和地域”[①]。由於因特網消除了時空的距離，使得地球變成了“地球村”。數字化信息社會的本質就在於保持時間和空間的距離為零。
3.非排他性
這是數字化網絡社會的又壹重要特征：壹個人使用壹件非物質的物體時，不排斥他人同時使用。這是網絡時代的數據可以***享的技術特征所決定的。
4.平等性
