The Internet was originally created so that scientists across the
world could
exchange information. Today it is used by millions of people
daily for comunication,
business, trading, and sociolizing. The Internet has become part
of todays sociaty like
first mail, then telegraphs, then telephones have been excepted.
In my suite there is at
least one computer in each room. Its a cheap forms of
communication with people who
to far away to call.
The internet gives you access to almost anything you want. A
person with the
right computer job and a credit card could probable live out of
his house just by using his
computer. Peopl have started to realy on computers to much and
the movie world has hit
on that with movies like The Net, and The Matrix. The largest
concern to people in 1999
is that Y2k will crash everyones computers and will send
peope back into the dark age
before computers. Students have been asked to be prepared to get
rides home after break
because if the computers crash there will be no power.
The old fashioned mail system has been dubed Snail Mail
and college campus
have both a Mail box and am email box for every student. Terms
like URL, HTML,
Webpage, and chat rooms are part of everyday conversations. Bill
Gates the man who has
made himself rich of computers is a household name. You can chat
with peeple from any
continent with chat programs like AOL. You can find document on
every subject from
where to get your pet checked for fleas to finding a local garage
that services 1970 car in
your fathers front yard.
One of the delimas of all this free information is that using the
freedom of speech
people have used it to profit. Not just computer tycoons but also
the pornographic
industry has also set up shop on the web. You can go to many
sites and find pictures of
forms of sex that you never heard about in Health class in 6th
grade. In retaliation with
these sites mothers have created programs and have petitioned now
so that adult
verification are requered to get into many of these sites.
Programs like Netnanny have
made is the webpages kids look at are now being checked for
less then ideal sites.
The music companys have also started having troubles with
the freedom of the
internet. Many of the people who used to go out and buy CDs
can now go to a few sites
and have as many songs as they want. Even though this may slow
down their computer
its a lot cheaper then paying 19.95 for a cd that you only
like one song from. Programs
like Napster are in law suits because of the fact that thousands
of songs are being traded
over there network by the second.
With the click of a button, the typing of a title and a few
patiant moments you
could ave The Beatles singing from you computer, or the
BackStreet boys telling you
how they want it.
To have 300-400 mp3s in a file on your desktop is something
you get high fives over.
Two of my friends have so many downloaded computer game demos
they havent even
tried half of them it seems. You can find cheat to video games on
the internet you can
download hacks and bots.
A hack is a program that alows you to be unkilliable in your
favorite video games. As far
bots as far as i can figure out they are program makers that you
can make your own hacks
on.
My first interaction with the internet was in my senior year of
High School. I
would wait an hour before the people who drove me home got out of
work so I would go
to the highschool library where i would look up information on
Comics. The next year i
was in college i had access to the internet my RA showed me how
to get on a chat room.
I was addicted i spent all of my free time in that chat room. The
next fall semester i
wasnt in school i had a job and i saved up for a computer
detail and someone who likes
to gather information. Putting that information in order will be
the next step. You get a
subject i am interested and i can find enough information to make
your head spinn. Now i
have a source to share that information and a place I can get
feed back from.
As i finish up the class with a hard disk in my hand and a
password engraved in my
head. I know that the knowladge will help me on my own personal
interests and
work/school as well. I know how to make a web page how to make it
look better, how to
search the internet for images and files, i know not to steal
someones webpage but i can
borrow there images. I plan on having a webpage created over
break to place on the net
something that i can be proud of and I look forward to learning
more as i go along.
