History has obviously had a major impact on today's world, it is about how we got to where we are today, who thought up these extreme ideas that would change how people got their information and communicated forever? No one could see it coming, people would laugh at the idea of being able to search information at the tip of your fingers, but look where we are today.
In the 1980's the World Wide Web was born, a portal of information that any person of the public can use if connected to the internet. It includes viewing web pages of all sorts of multimedia from all over the world, wether it be images, videos or just TV programs you need to catch up on. Yes, there is a side to the World Wide Web which gives a sense of freedom and knowledge, but how about our own privacy. We all have our own social networking page, to interact with family and friends, but what about all the private information we put up there, how sure are we that it will stay private.
So is it really important for us to know about the World Wide Web? Well yes, it is human nature to want to understand what we are using and how it was created. But we must also remember how important it is too look into the future and make an impact on technology already created.
We have to know where things have come from too predict how they will develop in the future, how would we know how to re-make things, if we didn't know how they were made to begin with? And how do we know things within in the world of Digital Technology won't get completely out of control?
Eproxiamtely every two years, the speed of computing is going to double, yes we all have our in little internet would at the of our fingers already, so what else could be within our reach around the corner?
Technology is constantly changing so rapidly and changed the face of the world as we know it.
