We've all done it. We are all affected by it, but we don't even realize what is happening. Even I am hit by the invisible bullet; Internet. At first glance, the Internet seems great. If you want to know who batted for the Red Socks in 1978, Google it. If you want to see a view of the streets of Rome, Google Maps has you covered. Do you need to see if the price of that new handbag has dropped? Amazon is there, instantly. It seems that information on the Internet is endless, and in some ways, it is. One website, Youtube, adds more than six thousand days of video per day (youtube.com). You may think this is great, but most of this information is useless. In those six thousand days of video, you might be able to watch one day for an entire week, and that's only if you're extremely determined to waste time. As you watch these videos throughout the week, more information is added. You only get one day of information, more likely entertainment, out of forty-two thousand days of video. Inevitably, some of this information will be on the same topic. There may be dozens of videos based on a single idea, but the question arises: which video answers it correctly? This is one of the many problems we encounter when using the Internet to learn. Many people think that the Internet is a great tool for education because of its information, but I think that the Internet is a giant storm that contains too much information for us to handle. Schools are assigning more and more tasks via the Internet. Kids don't need to bring home fifty-pound backpacks, rummage through dozens of folders looking for a single blank sheet of paper, and for a paperless generation, these facts seem great . However, the mind... middle of paper ...... external world and there is nothing to do; this is life for us. In the next few sentences, you're probably going to review the final grade and then go to the web. I don't blame you for using it, but please, for your own sake, watch your step and don't get caught up in the world's best web.
