The internet has become a major source of all types of information, whether the results of this information is used for good effects or bad effect. The information explosion still continues to this day becuase of the ever expanding internet reach. The effect of this information explosion or information availabilty for all at anytime or anywhere is very strong on all sapect of life.Some Governmnet have even regulated the used of thie medium on there respected countries. While most countries simple take advantage of this free information that can be found on the internet. On a more personal level, how much influence does this medium excert on an individual person? How about you?

I will say that i have not been on the internet that long, so you can say that i am a learner.I will say that there are lots of things that i am now able to do without having to worry about leaving the house,like ordering my shopping to be delivered, bidding on Ebay like everyone else, play games on here rather than going to buy them.I think that if i was now without the internet i would be rather bored.

It surely is much more effective than it was in the last century. The fact that it helps information to be spread much more faster with lower or even no cost (for the receiving part, us) is amazing and it contributes to our advancement as a technological civilization.
