In my search for some new things, and in my conversations with old friends and new ones, just a few weeks back the Internet has caught my attention. How important is it really in our lives? Our kids are stuck everyday socializing digitally, just like us 2 decades ago on TV. Our Smart Phones so indispensable, that it would be a disaster for us losing it. The machines we interact with all connected by this phenomenal technology called the Internet. A community so encompassing that a big portion of our lives are interrelated without us noticing it.
Do we really think it to be part of us? I'm sure most of us will say yes. But do we know why? Not all of us know how it affects us. Let me try to show why. I'm going to a mall and couldn't find the Nike store because my son wants to buy a pair of Hyperfuse, i get my smart phone i click an app, and AHA! Found it! How about home shopping for those of us on the night shift, 7 days a week? Internet shopping is now here, that we could almost get hold of our needs by a click, and at the front door is a box of your goodies! This comes with it social interactions, getting your thought through as many persons and touching them with your ideas, and vice versa.
But do we really like that kind of way of life? Or should I ask, what value do we really have now as the Internet engulf our lives? To many of us maybe its convenience. We get it done quick, information is real time, we have the power to push our messages and ideas across loud-and-clear, the interactions are precise, and we know what we need, as in everthing!, is now in the Internet 24/7.
With this, my first post on the maiden launch of the Jepoy Dino Thoughts on Good Value In My Homtown blogspot, i leave you to wait how I think I can contribute in the world of the Internet on my next post.
