INTERNET...

The internet is a source of knowledge.It is ofbvery recent origin.However the influence it has on society is immeasurable.The scope is very wide.It is known the world over.It is easily accessible to everyone.

       Knowledge has got a new dimension with the introduction of the internet.An internet user has access to a lot of knowledge and information.A book for example is read serially one sentence after the other.Letters are written horizontally or vertically.

       If we want to read a book and listen to music at the same time,we have to use two seperate source fo that.But the internet has brought the two together for us.You must have seen people working at the computer listening to music.

      When producing a book,the weight and size play an important role.That is why dictionaries and enxyclopedias come in volumes.we will not be able to lift one if they are produced as a singke work.The internet has no 'weight'unlike a book which is heavy and so with the 

network,there is no 'bulk'.We can get what we want to at a click.

       The language that is most used on the internet is English.The internet was first started as a research project if the Department of Defense of the USA.

   

        The internet provides an immense source of knowledge, through search sites such as Google,Wikipedia,Yahoo etc..

However there are certain disadvantages in the internet.No one is responsible for the information or the quality of information.There is no source for this information.There is no authority or authorship responible.
