The Social Impact of the Internet on our Society

Abstract

The Internet drives the hottest stocks on Wall Street, shapes technological innovation, and fills the pages of the world's presses. What does this mean for society, government, commerce, and other institutions? How will the way we live, work, learn, profit, govern, and communicate. The Internet creates new ways for citizens to communicate, congregate, and share information of a social nature. It is obvious that the Internet has and will continue to change the way we live. How it is changed, and how it will continue to change our lives, is the reason for so many conferences on the topic. For example, the following is an abstract of a conference that took place: The Internet is also called International network or network of networks. Basically internet is the major requirement of each & every person. Because a revolution is taking place. It started quietly and has grown to involve much of the world. On an average day, following event may occur: A young couple uses a computer to plan a road trip from their home in Ohio to friend’s house in San Francisco, California. Within a second, they receive a description of the shortest route along with maps and detailed description of distances and each turn. The most common assessment of the Internet’s significance measures the number of computers that connect to it. The internet reaches ship at sea, planes in the air, mobile vehicle on land. So the question is “The Internet has arrived; are you ready for it”.
