The internet is a way for people to get work done, entertain yourself etc. There are many stereotypes about the internet in my opinion. Ex, “Ten years ago, the Internet was practically unheard of by most people.” Page 127 , see how far the internet has came in 10 years . The internet is a lot of complex information space that reflects much of the variety of our physical world. The internet is a very remarkable virtual world, and is ran by a democratic group and a technical organization.
The internet is basically an network of networks that can connect to information within the network. Ex, “They claim to not use the Internet because they are afraid of the possible consequences or are simply not interested.” Page 127 , people are afraid of what lies behind the internet world. Without the internet, people would not be able to get a lot of information, like stats etc. The internet has everything you can think of on it. In order for the internet to work you have to have analogue telephone signals to connect to the internet. To get these signals, you have to have a modem of some sort to get any kind of signal.
The internet has a lot of advantages to it. Its very simple and easy to learn how to use the internet if you have a little time and patients. People from across the world can literally talk to one another, just by using the internet. Without the internet we wouldn’t be able to do a lot of things in this world. For example the internet saves people a lot of money because instead of traveling for a meeting you can do video chat instead.
The internet is GREAT for Advertisement. People can really make a lot of money using this source. Business’s can use the internet to sell their product and advertise where their stores are. Any business can build their own website, it will just take some money to do so. With the businesses online this makes normal peoples lives better than what it really is. So they can really just stay home and shop and won’t have to go out anywhere at all.
Another good thing about the internet is that they provide E-mail (electronic mail). This allows a person to send things instantly to you without waiting a long time. This is way better than postal mail because it is faster and free. You can really send anything through e-mail like music, pictures, etc. One more good thing about e-mail is that you can send an e-mail to more than one person at a time.
Sometimes the internet is not a safe place, like social websites. People put their address information and stuff on the internet and that’s really not a good idea. Any body can look at that and pop up at your house and try to kid nap you or something. There are crazy people out there that would do things like that so you have to be careful about what you put on the internet. So you should always be aware of what you are putting out there at least be aware of what you are getting yourself into. Ex. “He was charged with 290 counts of child pornography” page 128 , this comes from the internet and shows what people are like.
The internet is good for teenagers that are putting an effort for school. There are a lot of scholarship opportunities and ways to get into college through the web. This gives you a lot of information about colleges and what you need to know to try and get in. Without the internet you wouldn’t get a chance to see what schools ad to offer to you. With this you can know every and anything you want to know about schools across the whole country and will not have to worry about traveling anywhere.
