The Internet.

I'm asked for my opinion on whether or not if the internet is good or bad. I was asked to make a list for each of these. First I want to touch on the good aspects of the internet. One could say that research has been made better, I agree with this completely. I would rather search the web for useful information, then go look through hundreds of pages in book after book to find something I could get within three seconds in a search engine. Another great thing about the internet would be the social networking sites such as; Yahoo, Hotmail, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Myspace, and even this blog. All of these I've mentioned have problems yes, many caused by their users, but allow us to communicate with one another in more ways than we can possibly imagine. Also, the internet allows us to communicate through any e-mail system. Then there is also skype and oovoo, which are programs created to have a face to face meeting with a friend, boss, coworker, or any person internationally. These allow for conference meetings to take place without you even having to show up to work for the day. One good example of this is in movies when they have the boss on the television at the end of the table giving orders from hundreds of miles away.

Now on to the bad aspects of the internet. I will start with the most obvious Porn, honestly there is no need to go into detail about this topic, besides to say that it corrupt the majority of the internet. One thing that the aforementioned social networking sites have a problem with is "Cyber Bulling". Which I believe to be very immature and very avoidable. The concept of "Cyber Bulling" is when a kid gets behind the safety of a computer and makes fun of or tries to start arguments because the power he feels that he wouldn't get in the real world. Also another example is that kids use it to continue to pick on people they already do at school or wherever else possible. These are just a few of the helpful things the internet does, along with the terribly things it allows.
