The internet was the greatest invention of the 20th century and probably the second most important invention, just after the wheel. The internet was invented and began to be used in the CERN, in Switzerland. At the beginning The internet was an easier way of sharing information among scientists in the center, but in months it began to be used by many scientists all over the world.
With the more common use of the computer in our daily life people realized that the computer was more useful as a way of sharing information and data with other users via internet. And the number of users began to spread all over the world. When the Web was created all the users around the world could access the same information and they could know more about everything. It was a huge step.
The access to information was easier, without all the books and manual research, and that was great. Now we can see and talk with someone that is on the other side of the world without leaving our couch. We can know much about everything, see millions of videos, read eBooks, listen to music, meet other people; it means that we can do and see everything in our bedroom.
I think that the internet had a huge impact on modern society, because now we can know other cultures, construct opinions, practice writing, learn, and so on.
But we need to be careful too, because the internet has lots of dangers. Behind the screen there can be someone with a second intention, or we can access something that could lead us to think and see the world in a bad way.
So the internet has good and bad points, like everything in life. It’s great to use it, but remember, use it safely and remember: you are not 100% sure of the reasons or intentions of the person who is behind the screen. Take it easy and enjoy it.
