The internet is a tool that changed our lives. When I has a child, It was not as popular as it has today, I remember when I had to do a homework, I went to the library, and started to search in books, newspapers, magazines and encyclopedias.
ReplyDeleteToday with just a click you can find information immediately. I think the internet was a great invention but has its advantages and disadvantages, because the use of these books and encyclopedias were forgotten. Nowdays, the children have the information at they hands and can access anytime and search any information that they looking for. And the imagination of young people has declined.
Seeing the advantages, is a tool so important and useful, for example at my job I use it to complete some reports, because I can find some ideas to give a great presentation or how to prepared some graphics and show information in a different format.
I think it’s like everything, if you use it in a responsible way you can find the best way to have useful information.
Concluding, some of these advantages can be Information on almost every subject imaginable, some platforms for products like SKYPE, which allow us keep in touch by a video conference with anyone in the world who also has access.
And the disadvantages, could be more like search wrong information because anyone can post anything and it can be garbage. Or Hackers can use the internet for identity theft etc.
So the responsibility depends on each of us.
