How Has The Internet Changed People’s Lives

Since its creation, the Internet changed people’s lives almost everywhere in the world. It made our lives easier.

It helped us and still helping us not only to communicate with others, but also doing a lot of stuff thanks to some website founders.

Now in this article, I will talk on how much it is helping us in our daily lives.

Living Abroad:

Before the creation of the Internet, people used to send letters to each other from country to country and it would take almost forever until the message arrives. After the new technologies like the Telephone and the Internet, people started to talk with each other, chat on some websites such as Facebook, and other messaging apps. See how much the difference is? A mail can take up to a month to arrive while a single message can take less than a second! Not only that, you can now video chat! A person that used to live abroad could not see his family unless they send him a picture or he comes by himself to his country!

Students:

Students used to read every single book and check page by page to find their demanded stuff. If some students wanted to make a project together, it could take a lot of time. But now, with a single click on Google, they could find everything that they want! Especially with Wikipedia. This website shows everything from biographies, science, politics, and history!

Now students can also get helped with their homework if they aren’t understanding. There are some communities where people can talk and ask questions to each other such as Yahoo Answers!

Online Businesses

Some people don’t have money to rent a shop and pay bills. And some who can’t since they have diseases and should stay at home. With the help of some Online Shopping websites like Ebay, Amazon, Etsy people can sell their items online and grow their business from home!

Not only that, but people started to get jobs on the internet from international countries such as writing, developing websites, and much more!

News

Before, people used to wait daily newspapers, or the news on T.V but now people aren’t reading newspapers like before, everything is online. Most of the news sources have websites, Facebook pages, and Twitter accounts. People get news by just scrolling on their mobile phones!

Sending and Receiving Money Online

With the help of online wallets, you can send and receive money online with one single click! And now the Bitcoin which is a digital currency is growing fast and it is having more users using it! You just choose who you want to send to, and choose the amount only!

The world is changing very fast and we don’t know what is coming. Now, the Internet is making our lives easier and better!
