The Internet : The End Of The Internet

Electronic communication plays vast roles in the way individuals communicate in today’s society, this has created a significant change to the quality of interpersonal

Both authors point out the negative reasons of using “too much” internet and less interaction with people. Because people lose their focus from doing the work. Carr offers concern by stating how writing few pages is hard and reading long articles has become difficult. Car writes, “Even a blog post of more than three or four paragraphs is too much to absorb. I skim it” (55). Even he has become the victim of online browsing and not able to write long articles, which shows how he has problems focusing on writing a blog. More easiness has made people lazier because people do not have to put extra effort to do any tasks. Therefore, Carr says that some people would save a long article to read it later, but the chances are less that people actually go back and finish it (55). He also shows how people may forget to work on something they had saved for later while doing something online. However, they tend to forget it because some may get distracted from scrolling through one link to another which slips out of their mind. Bauerlein would strongly agree with Carr that people are becoming more distracted and technology-like. Bauerlein also shows the concern that people use fake facial expression to describe their expression. He argues that people send “smileys” and “emoji’s” when they send text messages on phones or inserts an emoji on Facebook, but their actual expression could be completely different and no one would figure it out (77). It prevents people from knowing a person very well because they could have a totally different perspective about them over the phones. Bauerlein describes his concern that people are not at their benefits when they talk through “emoji’s” on the phone because they would not be able to figure out a person’s hand movements when they talk about certain things or their actual facial

Throughout the years people have been given the privilege of interpersonal communication in many forms, such as letters, emails, texts, and social media. Letters were one of the very first mediums people used to communicate, and as the years went by technology improved, and emails were created. Emails served as a faster alternative for people in a business to contact someone else. Following that was the idea of text messaging, not only was it time efficient but also easier. That wasn’t the only thing connecting people all around the world though. Social media wasn’t the most popular to begin with, but as time went by, and it became more personal, people began to take a very big interest in it. Letters, emails, texts, and social media play

Face-to-face communication seems to be a dying art – replaced by text messaging, e-mails, and social media. Human communication and interactions are shaped by available technologies.

This journal article talks about how email, social media, and other technologies has made communication easier online.

Nowadays, the communications with others are different from the traditional ways and normal rules. People take advantage of new technology to communicate instead of face to face. Although the email and text message make people easy to communicate, the society

The 90's internet boom gave rise to new ways of writing in through access to cyberspace. What used to be printed or handwritten on physical surfaces such as paper, cardboard, or bulletin boards has changed to 0's and 1's, bits and bytes of digitized information that can be displayed thru the projections of computer screens. Moreover, the internet has made the process of publishing one's works, writing letters, or chatting with one another much easier and convenient for everyone around the globe. The internet became a universal tool, giving much freedom and flexibility to the users; it gave them opportunity to deliver their thoughts with little or no restrictions. Since it's impossible to regulate

When technology change the way people interact with each other in daily life, those writing days were gone with letters and postcards and personalized greeting cards and they are turned into emails, online social

Digital communication through today’s technology is empowering our society and strengthening human relationships through connecting us in ways that are impossible through organic human to human interaction. This exceptionally innovative technology was once only imaginable in science fiction literature, and is now a reality for most of humanity. We use this form of communication on a daily basis throughout the planet. We rarely stop to think about how wondrous and seemingly magical this advanced technology is, and we seldom ponder on how this new form of communication impacts us as a culture. Advanced digital communication not only enables and emboldens us, but could be potentially harming and hindering us as a culture as well as socially

Imagine a world where geographic separation does not inhibit the social or economic mobility of people. A place where cement roads are obsolete and unnecessary and the information super highway is the only road you need to know how to navigate. Information technology becomes the glue and nails that binds our (global) society together. Development becomes a matter of installing fiber-optic wiring, cellular towers and satellite launching. World Bank projects change from road building to wire laying. Now imagine a world where there is no electricity, telephones, computers, roads or other mediums of transportation other than legs and feet. Communication exists on a face-to-face level and nothing more. An individuals’

In today’s world 3 billion humans are on the internet but there are also 4 billion people that are not. In the beginning of my study on the future of the internet, I asked myself this question: is it possible that everyone could be online and globally connected? Then I asked myself how, if everyone is online, the future of the internet change the experience of everyday life? Looking back, the internet is still a relatively new phenomenon as it was first created back in the 1960’s by a computer scientist named J.C.R Licklider. He envisioned a network of computers, called the galactic network, which would allow humans to be able to share information instantly. Overtime this is how the internet developed, as many of these networks that shared

Today, the world is much different than it was fifteen years ago, much less fifty years ago. The progression of technology has been even more significant than ever before in the last several years, but has ultimately lead us astray from our core character. The production of cell phones, social media updates, websites, and technological tools is constant, but these new and improved technologies have left the world with very few longstanding advancements. Though the internet has brought the world innumerable innovative opportunities, life before technology was much more efficient, filled with many more promising benefits: responsibility, socialization skills, and controversy.

Ever since the Internet first came into existence, people have utilized this medium as a means for communication, and as a

According to Chirot, societies are always changing. These changes take place through the process of modernization, and modernization takes the lead of cultural evolution. When talking about culture, according to Chirot on page 7, culture refers simply to “the store of knowledge any society possesses.” When in reference to cultural evolution (a broader term for social change, pg. 8), this is how societies change. Societies change to keep up with their environments. The process that this change goes through, is when a problem is faced so therefore the society needs to seek a solution. The next step in this process would then be to adopt modern values, therefore the society will become changed, in most cases for the best. When thinking about the process of transitioning via cultural evolution, from hunting and gathering, to agrarian, to industrial societies; the process is not always simple and may take some time. Although when being compared to biological evolution, it is a much shorter process.

The Internet org. might not work efficiently in India, neither in culture nor technological method. For cultural reason, religion would be the first cause which makes extremely negative effect for expanding internet service in India. Since the Hinduism is a kind of close religion, such as it does not encourage people to travel away from India, the ethic might not encourage people to use new technology such as internet. In addition, education is still a problem in India. The literacy in India is 74.04 percent, which is lower than the world average level according to the research of census (2011). However, there are still some positive aspects for the organisation. Although the language aspect might cause serious problems for the expansion due to a number of native languages, English, which is a global and the most common internet language, could be used by a number of Indian because India was the colony of the UK. Moreover, based on the colony history, the company might be accepted by local people easily, due to the assimilatory education (Science Encyclopedia 2014). Consequently, although there are advantages for the organisation to expand into Indian market, the disadvantage might make bigger effect because the religion could influence people’s mind and daily life when we concerned with the culture aspect.
