Since the advent of the Internet, there have been profound changes in the way we live, work or play.
Firstly, the internet has brought e-mail to the masses, which made it possible to send messages, digital
photos, music, and videos to anywhere in the world instantly. Gone are the days when it took about
fifteen days for a letter from Lahore to reach San Francisco. Besides e-mail further innovations like
instant messaging has also become the norm. With a web camera, users can actually see each other on
the computer monitor and speak to each other through a microphone no extra cost. In the past, this
convenience was only available to companies that could afford high expensive video conferencing
equipment at exorbitant charges. The effect of this technological development is that people are able to
stay in close touch with each other even though they are thousands of of kilometres apart. Not long
ago, this was only possible in science fiction movies and fantasies . Internet has also changed the way
we access information. In the past one had two search books, magazines and libraries if one needed to
know something.Now search engines e.g. Google and yahoo give us a list of websites that provide the
information that we need . There are even free online dictionaries encyclopedias and maps . As
technology advances,the impact of the internet will be even more profound in the future. Now it is up to
us to use its power to serve mankind in a positive way.
