Personal Impact
The internet has impacted my life in ways that I would not have imagined. In 2003, I looked at my life and I was not very happy with being a bank teller. I felt that I could do so much more with my life. I graduated college in 2001 but my degree was not helping my banking career. I decided to take a career redirection. I decided to go to school online. After attending my online college for the first time, the internet changed my life forever. I was afraid that I would begin a program and not finish but my advisors at my online school would not allow me to quit. Now after earning my degree in Instructional Technology, my life has been forever changed. What about you? How has the internet impacted your life?

ReplyDeleteThe internet has made the world a much smaller place. It has allowed me to research all of my varied interests, which range from information and products for my car to tattoo design and other forms of deviant art.
ReplyDeleteI also use the social networking sites to stay in touch with many of my friends and family, which are spread all across the world; making me internationally reknown. Sites like MySpace and Facebook also allow me to stalk ex-girlfriends from the safety of a computer terminal. just kidding. or am I? Jason Duncan

ReplyDeleteThe inrternet has changed my shoping habbits by helping me find things for cheaper prices. Things like clothes, phones, and anything else I need or want.
ReplyDeleteThe internet has also changed my timing on things. Something that would take me an hour researching using books now only takes minutes sometimes even seconds.
The internet does have an impact on my life. It helps to connect with family. I've recently have started to read other's blogs. Also If there's something idk I'd just google it plus, it's somewhat interesting to read blogs that ppl post some are very interesting. The internet has aslo helped me with buying things actually I think I save a bit of money by shopping online. The internet is something rally unique. Demands at your finger tips. Dewayne Smith
ReplyDeletethe internet is not only a great impact to me, but to the whole society. it makes a easy access to shop online. you can also get well known facts with just about any questions. is that a impact or what?

Reading other post I see that many people really find the internet helpful. What would we do without the internet? Has anyone ever thought about that? If the internet was to have some sort of shut down I think it would be a disater. I see that alot of people depend on ther internet me being one of those people. It has become something that we all need in some way. Dewayne Smith

ReplyDeleteWhen I was young, I thought the internet was another word for a spider web. But in middle school it all changed. We were introduced to the internet. We only used it for research and other school related work.
ReplyDeleteThen when our family bought a new computer. And I just used what I learned in classed and I applyed for home uses. The internet just opened another door of information for me to explore.

The internet has made life alot more convenient. Without internet communicating to others would be nearly impossible without their phone numbers. Using facebook, twitter, and other social networks make it possible to communicate through internet. It also makes communicating technically alot cheaper.
ReplyDeleteInternet is also a good source of shopping. It makes shopping for appliances more convenient. Instead of driving to a store the most easy way is by sitting down and having a certian item sent to your home. The internet also provides a better selection of items, therefore you usually get what you are looking for.
In response to kanalvinanderson, the internet has made shopping very easy. Why would you wait three hours in line a Best Buy to buy that new blu-ray player, when you can just go online and buy it. Simple easy to remember.

ReplyDeleteThe internet has made a big impact on my life. The internet has made it easier for me to learn more about subjects i need to find out more information about especially in school. It has also has made it easier for me to find and purchase items that i need or want and has also kept me in touch with others i haven't communicated with in a long time.
In response to “Impact of the Internet as a Learner” blog
ReplyDeleteThe Internet has made convenient an otherwise inconvenient world. It has helped me in many areas of my life, but most of all in the transition from an incarcerated student to a “free world” student. I am now able to get information from unlimited sources as opposed to whatever books were available. I am also in constant contact with other students and scholars with e-mail which makes group projects and answers to questions as easy as the push of a button.
In my social life the Internet is invaluable. I have the ability now to contact my friends all over the country through social networking sites such as facebook and myspace. I receive e-mails daily from people ranging from friends in California to my mother in Pine Bluff. I have also found people who I lost through life’s inevitable twists and turns with the help of the Internet.
Jeff Garrison
In response to personal Impact...The internet has impacted my life in ways that are very helpful and convenient for taking care of business. The internet also has much cheaper shopping and paying bills is easier. The internet also has quick and accurate searching methods.
ReplyDeleteThe internet is a great way for social networking. So much inforamtion that would be taken from books can be found easily on the internet. Information on how people completed certain projects that would come from the person themself can be found on the internet. These are ways trhat the internet has had a great impact on my life.

ReplyDeleteThe internet has made a huge impact on my life. It helps speed up processes that would usually take days to finish. There are various tasks, and things that can be done on the internet, from communicating with people faster to buying items and paying bills, all are a great help to me in todays society.
ReplyDeleteThe internet also hepls me keep up with alot of people from my past through web sites such as facebook, and myspace.

ReplyDeletei love the internet,the internet plays a big part in my life. I like to use the internet for shopping on ebay which makes it easy for me to find what i like. I like the internet also for chat with family and friends on facebook. The internet also made easier for me to do reseach papers and articles.carlos chambers
ReplyDeleteThe internet has made my life alot easier. There are alot of my family members and friends that I do not get to see very often. However, the internet makes it easy to stay in touch with these friends and family through things such as Facebook, Twitter and E-mail.
ReplyDeleteAlso, being a baseball player, there are times when I need some sort of equipment, whether it be gloves, cleats, pants, etc. The internet has made it much easier to get the things that I need. Most stores close to where I live do not have the equipment in stock that I need, so I often have to resort to going online and ordering whatever it is that I am looking for.
Heston Besancon
The internet has a big impact in my life. I use the internet for just about everything. I pay my bills online, I shop on eBay, and I even look for jobs and feel out applications online. The internet plays a big role in my life as far as school. Everything I do for school I have to get on the internet to do my homework for my teachers. The internet helps me with my homework, I can go to ask or yahoo to get answers if I don’t know how to do it.
ReplyDeleteThe internet helps me with issues I have with English, you can read others post on how to write English papers.
I love the internet because it allows me to get on face book and chat with my friends who stay in other states. The internet allows me to watch my favorite artist in concert. It’s a wonderful thing to have so you can explore world wide things, and meet new people.

I have been heavily impacted by the internet. The internet itself is a place where we can resaerch, shop, dicsuss other topics such as blogging on this webpage. It has impacted my typing skills, by way of facebook, email or even typing papers on one of my profiles and printing them. You can go on the internet for so many reasons just as the other students have said, but my views are slightly different as to everyone else.
ReplyDeleteWhen I graduated high school in 2009, I knew that I wanted to go into technology when i entered college. Since my college of choice (Arkansas Baptist) did not offer any internet courses, i decided to apply for a job that summ er that would benefit in helping me for school. I was a helper to computer technichians, learning how to design webapages for myself and other people. During that time I also learned how to fix problems within the computer itself, and when other people outside of the business needed help on their computers, we were right along in helping hem. This has been a great way the internet impacted me because I like computers, but the internet is where I like to work, and given that opportunity I was allowed to work with the internet even closer.
this is a response to bigstank 11.
ReplyDeleteI have also used the internet for social networks such as Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter. It has helped me connect with so many people whom I've lost contact with over the years, and it's also been a great way to check on friends and keep in touch with everyone!!!

ReplyDeleteBeing able to have access to the internet has been a great impact for me mainly, because I’m able to complete school work and interact with friends. Growing up I didn’t have a personal computer, my parents are what you would call old fashioned and never had a computer themselves. I finally received access to a computer December of 2008 when my parents and I moved into a new home in Scott, Arkansas. The first thing I did on our computer was open a facebook account, and I was amazed. I never had a social networking account before, so when I first started using facebook I was on there non-stop. In the fall of 2009 is when I began attending Arkansas Baptist College, which is the first college I ever attended. By this time I moved to Little Rock, so in order to keep from having to drive to Scott daily I was able to purchase a laptop computer with my school refund check. Having access to the internet has helped me a lot with my school work, such as doing research for essays to sending my instructors emails. I am also able to access different websites that I have to complete assignments on. Not only has using the internet helped me with school work, it also has made it able for me to make purchases online to various stores, as well as keep track of my banking activities.

ReplyDeleteThis is in response to Raven Robinson's blog, I agree on how the internet has impacted her life. It was interesting to know how much she likes to work on computers, and how she plans to have a career in technology.
April 6, 2010
ReplyDeleteWow! Who would have ever thought that this day in time we would not be able to live without technology. By technology I mean computers, television, kitchen appliances, etc, technology makes the world a better place, and for some can even be addictive. There is so much information available on the world wide web (internet) that when you log onto the internet you may have the intent on looking at only one piece of information, and find yourself looking at several things that may or may not pertain to your initial search.
I remember when the internet had or made the greatest impact on my life. It was right after my divorce in May of 2000. I decided to do a little research on writing my own divorce decree. The information available was unreal but very, very resourceful. There were templates available, and they even made suggestion for lawyers available in my area.

ReplyDeleteThis is in response to Jeff Garrison's impact response. Talking to and finding old friends on facebook and myspace is something Jeff and I have in common. Like he said it is easier and faster to go onto the internet rather than reading books to find the information your looking for on assignments.
This is in response to Mr. Desmond Beasley i agree with him on how the internet has impacted my life on keeping me in touch with family members and friends who live in different states. The internet has really help me with understanding the many things you can learn such as emailing, keeping in touch with family, and how it keeps me updated on world news. Since i been in high school back in 2001 all the way to my college term in 2010 the internet has come along way with the new technology of how it teaches people who may not even be computer literate how to use the internet. The internet has impacted me because it has allowed me to show my mom how to use the internet and my other peers who didnt know how to use the internet.

ReplyDeleteI really appreciate that Val is an avid internet user. She works very hard in class and always makes good grades. I cannot help but wonder how she would fare if it were not for the information provided on the internet. I trust she will do a fine job on the group project that we were assigned to.
Jeff Garrison
As a 63 year old man, who is in his third semester of college, the internet has made a major impact in my life. I use to be afraid of the computer and equally, if not more, afraid of the internet. I have learned that the internet is great and is full of great information. I know I am really behind in the internet knowledge world, but one of my personal goals is to be able to do my banking online.
ReplyDeleteMy late wife use to try and show me how to use the internet, but it was intimidating and I thought it was just for playing games and maybe doing research. I have since come to learn that the internet is much more. My daughter showed me how I could communicate with my brother, who lives in California, using the internet. I will sometimes sit down and just type in something to search for and use the websites that come up about that information am looking for. I am no longer afraid of the internet and I feel that with patience and consistency the internet will continue to have a positive impact in my learning.
In response to topdogwatson.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the different things that the internet has to offer. I have recently learned how to communicate with my brother via the web, and I hope to soon trust enough to shop online. I was looking at some the different websites for some repairs and changes I want to do in my home and the internet prices were somewhat cheaper than store prices and they had a lot of internet specials. So I agree the convenience is great.
in response to uniquelyyou2.
ReplyDeleteYou made some really good points. Technology is everywhere and it is a part of everyday life. I remember when I changed out my microwave, I had to read on how to program it, and it is all digital. I use to wonder what happened to turning the knob and pushing the on button. I too have used the internet for some personal inforamtion. When my late wife passed away I went to the library and looked up information about her diagnosis at death (I had to get help, but that is when I discovered that the internet is very useful). Yes it full of information that may seem unreal, but it was very helpful to me. Good posting.
In response to Rosevelt Bowman
ReplyDeleteI think it is great that you are learning to use the internet! I have seen my father grow in his understanding of the internet and it's varied uses, and I have witnessed other older people who were completely terrified of computers and refused to try. Who says you cant teach and old dog new tricks? No offense of course. Keep up the good work!
In response to Jeff Garrison
ReplyDeleteyou bring up some good points about the internet easing the transition from incarceration to the free world. Several times I have used google maps in conjunction with my bus-route map to find exactly where the location I am attempting to reach is in relation to the bus lines. It has greatly improved my ability to get around the city, and to make my appointments with my Parole Officer on time.
However, I noticed that you failed to mention some of the other ways you use the internet. . .
Response to Jason Duncan
ReplyDeleteI can relate to this post because my father was oblivious to the internet world. Now he is growing to do stuff on the computer and becoming more organized.
Response to kelvin
ReplyDeleteI can relate to kelvin's post because i am a huge online shopper. If it wasnt for the internet shoppin people would have to stick to the local shopping and I wouldnt like that.
The internet has impacted my life in several ways. One way the internet has made an impact on my life is easier access to get my classwork done. Online classes have an advantage over walk-in class due to the fact you don't have to leave home by simple use of the internet.
ReplyDeleteAnother impact of the internet that has an effect of my life is I can get any news related information about Lil Wayne. Sometimes I may not be able to purchase books about Lil Wayne, therefore the internet is available. The internet will continue to be an impact on my life as long as I can look up information I can get on an everyday basis.
Desmond Beasley
ReplyDeleteResponse to toppdoggwatson. I agree how the internet does and can keep you in touch with family and friends. It also gives you more choices for purchasing items because its not alot in little rock to chose from.
Desmond Beasley
ReplyDeleteResponse to Rashid Young. I also agree with your response on how the internet makes researching much easier and also gives a quicker and easier way to pay bills,etc.

Jeff Garrison
Yeah, I agree with Jason Duncan about elder people being computer illiterate, like my father, he doesn't want to go near a computer. They depend on our generation to engage in such knowledge
ReplyDeleteIn response to Kelvin, I agree about the online shopping. It's very much so cheaper than going to purchase at a retail store.
ReplyDeleteIn response to Jason Duncan
ReplyDeleteYes, Jason I did omit some of the other tasks I complete with the help of the internet. Though they are not illegal I did not feel that they were appropriate for this blog. Unless, of course you were alluding to the music file sharing for which my conscience eats at me even now.
Jeff Garrison
WHEN I GRADUATED FROM LITTLE ROCK CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL IN 1978 IT WAS THE 50 GOLD YEARS AND IT WAS A GREAT YEAR TO COME OUT. AND I ENTERED COLLEGE THIS YEAR IN 2010-2011 AT (ARKANSAS BAPTIST) AND I THANK GOD FOR THIS BEST COLLEGE IN THE HOLD WORLD AND I'M WOULD LOVE FOR MY DAUGHTER TO COME TO THIS COLLEGE SO SHE CAN GRADUATION JUST LIKE ME.
ReplyDeleteThe internet has impact my life in many of ways. One way it has made shopping very helpful for me because if the store don't have what I am looking for in stock I can always go online and order the item. Most of the time the shipping is free like at Sears, DWS, Coach, and Wetseals those are just a few. The other reason it has made an impact on my life is because if you have children in school, you can keep up with there grades and communicate with the teachers on you childs progress, when the teacher post it or when you have concerns. The final impact is because I can keep up with my cousin that has to travel alot I am not big on talking on the phone, so this way we can say what have to be said and move on to the next thing. Without no one interrupting the next person as they say what they have to say.
ReplyDeleteThis is in respond to Dewayne Smith, you are right about one thing, What would we do if we did not have computers anymore. I think we would just have to go like the Amish. They do not use electric so therefore they do not use computers.
ReplyDeleteThe internet has made an impact on my life in many ways, one way is threw a website called Facebook which connect people to get in touch with thier friends and family. I have had a chance to make new friends, keep in touch with my family member, and express the way i feel to others. Meaning writing poetry, changing my status on how I feel on different days, and just placing things on my wall so that people can see how I feel. Another way the internet has made an impact on me is the fact that whatever I want to learn, I can find it on the internet. I can do things such as research how to repair phones, learn how to play music on the piano, and download music and games. I love the internet and I'm glad it has made an impact on me.
ReplyDeleteThis is in respond to Mr. Rosevelt Bowman, must be very proud of yourself. I look up to you being 63 and going to school plus learning new technology that you was once intimidated by that shows me once again why give up. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThe internet has impacted my life greatly because it can keep you aware of whats going on around you in your town or state. The internet has impacted my life in a very positive way because it allows me to inform my family and friends on things that may be going on with me and others in the community. The internet can show you movies, news, and local information such as upcoming events. I'm very glad to have the internet in my life because it taught me things in which i can teach my peers things that they may have not of known such as how to access the internet.
ReplyDeleteThe internet is something that will be around for a long time and its something that will forever impact other lives.
In response to Mr. Rosevelt Bowman it just shows how the internet can benefit you no matter what your age is. I find it motivating on how the internet can impact people lives no matter what your age is or no matter what your background is. The internet is something that the world evolves around. The internet has a big impact on me and the world in general because without no internet the world wouldn't be able to move forward to the future. The internet is something that will forever be able to influence others because of the many things that you can learn from it. I'm so glad that the internet is around because it has made a very positive impact on me and my peers.

The internet has made find information easier. What use to take hours, days, even weeks we now can obtain this information in a matter of seconds. You can get information from anywhere without leaving your home now!
ReplyDeleteOn a personal level I use the internet as a way of keeping in touch with family and friends. The big site now for me is Facebook, you can find everyone on this site. And it is a great means for promoting your business or events as well.

ReplyDeleteYou and my mom graduated in the same year...I have been trying to get her to go back to school. Reading your post has inspired me to inspire her to go back to school. Thank You.
The internet has made my life easier. I can communicate with people I haven't heard from in a while on different websites such as Facebook, Myspace, etc.
ReplyDeleteNot only can you communicate, but you can find the internet very resourceful. You can learn how to use the internet properly and do assignments.
The internet is widely used by millions of people each day.Whether it's used by businesses, institutions,or for your own personal use, it has become a necessity. The internet has had a huge impact on my life.In the past, I only used the internet for email and educational purposes. I had no desire to use the web for any other personal uses. Now that computers have become a big part of our society, the internet has played an important part in my life.
ReplyDeleteI mainly enjoy searching the web to increase my knowledge and understanding. Whether there true or not, the internet has tons of sources and information. The web makes searching easier and more convenient. I also use the internet to keep track of my financial records through online banking. Being able to do business online saves me time and money. And lastly, I use the internet to keep in touch with family and friends. Email, instant message, and Facebook are some of the ways I network.
In response to Jacquelyn Stroud. After being out of school for so long I know it feels good to come back and better your education. It's never too late for anyone to comeback and study to get a degree. Your daughter seeing you in school will hopefully inspire her to come.
ReplyDeleteIn response to Valencia Anderson. You sound so much like my mother. Two years ago, she had no idea what to do on a computer. My siblings and I had to slowly teach her and now she can't get enough of the internet. She uses the internet more than me and also has opened herself a Facebook account. She has learned so much about a computer that she calls me sometimes telling me how to do things.
ReplyDeleteThis James Williams and this is how the internet has impacted my life in many ways. Since I have been able to use the net I have recently gotten in contact with individuals that I thought that I never would talk to again. Also with use of the net am able to research items and information more in depth. The internet has in able me to check accounts and apply for scholarships at my own convenience.
ReplyDeleteIn summary the internet has made life simpler. It has aided me in the organization of my daily life and my school schedule. It has greatly assisted me in my academic pursuits.
In this is a reply to Duncan’s blog: the social network sites are a great way to meet people with similar interest. I just recently set up my face book account add I am already addicted to it.
In response to Rashid blog: having access to my accounts online has lessened the time it takes to pay bills and check on other important things in my life.
In Response To Desmond Beasley. The Internet Keeps A Lot Of People Use The Internet To Stay In Touch With Friends And Family. I Also Use The Internet To Stay In Touch With Family When Im Away From Home.

In response to s.noid. It is amazing that the internet has made things so simple for students to shop or do research for papers.
ReplyDeleteIn response to alexbcook! I to use the internet to keep in touch with friends and family via facebook, yahoo, ect. It is amaze how far we have come with computers.
ReplyDeleteThe internet has impacted my life in a few ways. When i need to do my homework or a research paper i, get on the internet. i go to websites like google and try and find some information. the internet has always helped me.
ReplyDeleteThe internet can also has an impact on my social life. I can meet new people and make new friends on Facebook and Myspace. I will always use the internet because it is a big help to me.
The internet has helped me in so many ways. From doing reseachers for my classes to just browsing the web.
ReplyDeleteThe internet is very useful, because facebook has a huge impact on people. From getting to know people to conversating with your family.
In respond to Patience Carey.....
ReplyDeleteI am the same way with my mother. She is still in the process of learning, but she should know more about the computer in the next few months than just turning on the computer.
I agree wit alexbcook and kittrel. i always use facebook and myspace to ineract and connect with my friends. the reson why is because i like to keep intouch with my friends from highschool.
ReplyDeleteIn response to alexbcook......
ReplyDeleteI strongly agree that you can communicate with different people all across the world! Such as facebook, my space, twitter, etc...
I agree with Jason Duncan. i have seen my father become more interested in computers. He tries so hard to get on facebook and myspce. He is still learning hoe to use the computer. He is getting better.
ReplyDeleteWhat preva said the internert help you and many ways because of the communcations between others. It can help you with your homework to research many different things.And you can meet different people all the time
ReplyDeleteIn response to Clayton.....
ReplyDeleteI agree that you can look at news, videos, listen to music, search for things all in your local city or state.
I agree with deedra because people all over the world use the internet and many ways personal things and others
ReplyDeleteThe internet has had an impact on my life both in and out side on class. It’s very useful and depending on what kind of connection it’s a lot faster than old fashion picking up a book and research. As I the years passed the internet has become more complexes.
ReplyDeleteThe internet also changed how I dress and help me with my pockets. I think it’s a much cheaper and more convents, but I also think its making lazy. Surfing the internet can become addictive and you’ll find your self in side ore than usual.
In response to James I to have gotten in contact with a various amount of people I had for gotten all about. I have done so with web sites like facebook and many others.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with clayton with what he stated that the internet is a great way for you to be aware of things happening in your town. But not only in your town but in the whole world the. The internet can also help protect your family. Simply because you can know your neighbor and whole residential area background weather it's criminal etc.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite things to do is play football. It's my lifestyle. But i use the internet to my advantage. For example, before i have a game i study my opponets by oserving their size and watch their highlight tapes to see the at their best so then i can manipulate their every move. I perform great every game thanks to the internet.
ReplyDeleteThis is in response to Dewayne Smith's blog, I believe Google is one of the main source for looking for about anything. The main website I use to get things online for a cheaper price is Ebay, you can buy almost anything such as phones, cars, shoes, or just anything you can think of.
ReplyDeleteThis is in response to Jason Duncan's blog, the internet has made the world a smaller place because technology is controlling everything in the world. From getting information about cars before you buy them to getting information about how to run a business.
ReplyDeleteJimmy Rosby 4/9/10
ReplyDeleteThe internet has impacted my life in ways I had never dreamed of. Before starting to school in the fall of 2010,I had never used a computer,not to mention the internet! Iam currently taking a course, Intro to computers,which has helped me.My instructor is very good with the computer,she takes time to show me how to do things on the computer that I have never done before.SoI can truly say I have come a long ways from where I was with the computer,and the more I use it the more I learn about the internet.
The internet has impacted my life in a positive way. It has allowed me to look up information very easily and quickly. I am able to complete assignments and many other tasks. Things that I use the internet for is communicating with family and friends throughout the world, doing projects, and playing games.
ReplyDeleteI also use the internet to shop with sites such as Amazon. The internet is a great source to get daily routines done as well such as checking bank statements and paying bills online without going out. The internet also allows me to search for places to go quickly without searching through a map.
In response to Clayton, the internet has defenitely played a major role in how i communicate with my family and friends. Being away from home, the internet is defenitely a big help in knowing what is going on back at Home.
ReplyDeleteI love the internet. The internet have help make A's. When I frist started useing the internet it was easy to fine stuff I needed for paper or whatever you looking for. Or type in the website you nedd or want to look at. Internet is the best thing that ever happen to the world.if anything come out better then the internet to world is going to go crazy.
ReplyDeleteThe other thing I learnd bout the internet is if u single all you have to do to get someone is have a computer with the internet on it. Like older people or younger people no how to use it. Few things to h ave you fine a date is type in singlepeople .com and it help you fine a date. Another thing iz you can fine your family or friends on the website like facebook or myspace.Internet is so easy to use anybody can use it.
In response to Jimmy Rosby's post, I believe that everyone should familiarize themselves with the computer and the internet. The society that we live in now demands it because most of the things that we do today can also be done online. Learning how to use the internet on the computer can also be an advantage which can speed up the process.
ReplyDeleteIn response to Avon, being a football player, i defenitely think the internet is a big help. It allows you to study film on atlethes that you may want to imitate. It also allows you to keep up with stats and scores of your favorite teams. It also allows you study the game and your opponents strategy.
ReplyDeleteIn response to Keyon's post, I believe that the internet is good for people interested in online dating. I mean, everyone needs a little love, just make sure you are looking at the right picture, cause I know people post fake pictures online.
ReplyDeleteWhen discussing the internet and the impact it has on a learner. The internet helps you once you have to get ready for a Research Paper. Like finding information about a topic and a near library were you could possibly find a book on the topic also. I can say it has helped generation from generation educational wise.
ReplyDeleteAlso the internet has impacted Families that have never known one side of their family that google or facebook has acquired them to find.
The Internet has impacted in my life trendmendosly, i mean there are variety of things you can do with it. You can get on there and play games against other people, you can do what ,most use it for and thats for information that it carries, you may need it for homework or something.
ReplyDeleteIll always have the need for the internet, long as teachers keep giving me things like research topics and things. The things i written about today all deal with the reasons and how the internet has impacted my life.
In response to keyon's post, i believe that the internet is the best thing that has ever happened to the world. If it wasnt any internet Societies grades probably wouldnt be as good.
ReplyDeleteBecause their wouoldnt be any extra educational resources to help follow up on researches or world views.

ReplyDeleteAfter reading everyone's post the internet has almost the same imapct on all of us, people are using it for social networking, studying, researches and things in that nature. So i can pretty much say thank you for the internet for eveyone.
ReplyDeleteIn response Desmond Beasley, i also thank the internet for making researching information for classes more easy to access. Back in the 70's and 80's most of research needed for classes were mostly likely gonna be found in a book, so going the libray and flipping hundreds of pages to obtain information was pretty much an only option. The internet has made that issue more easier and much more faster. Dustin Danzie

ReplyDeleteIn response to Rosevelt Bowman the internet has made a major impact in my life. Cause why out the internet I'll have do something i dont like doing unless i have to and that's reading. I think if I didn't have the internet i have to read more then i do now. If you looking for something all you have to do is get to a computer an type in what you need into the computer. It's to easy to do. The internet had made a impact on my life since the first time i use it. And to tell you the truth it mite be the best thing ever.
ReplyDeletein response to Kittrel the internet saves you alot of time and energy. You can just sit back at home and pay all of your bills. You can get information on anything just about now. You can keep in touch with new and old friends on facebook, and you can promote your music and businesses on there.

In response to Watts i believe the games you get to play against other opponents on the internet helps you become better at what your doing. Because the internet can be used with Xbox's and Playstations. Think about if your playing a game 5 times a week 1-2 times a day against other people from other cities, states and countries you have different styles you'll go against.
ReplyDeleteIn response to Mr. Jason Ducan said about the intrernet make the world smaller. Because all you have to do to fine something or someone is google it or them. Or just whatever you looking for or want to now about. Cause if the person have a state I.D. from anywhere they can be found. This how the police catch the people they are lookin for most time. That's why I stay out of trouble cause if someone want to fine you they can by usein the internet.

Me being a Business Administration major, i have big dream of becoming a successful business owner, and business partner. the internet can easily take a business to the top, making everythang from keeping up with inventory to knowing exactly when u different kinds of items in your business.
ReplyDeleteThe internet and a business really go hand and hand together. speeding up every aspect of a business. Im really looking for to getting myself together so i can experience these advantages.
in response to Avon the internet can give you a edge on your opponents. You can get stats on your opponents and you can learn what the teams like to do. It can help you keep up with your favorite teams and players.
