hello bima93....internet has been perhaps the most outstanding innovation in the field of communication in the history of mankind.... As with every single innovation, internet has its own advantages and disadvantages. But usually, greater magnitude of advantages outweighs its disadvantages........ Advantages 1. we can communicate in a fraction of second with a person who is sitting in the other part of the world. 2. Any kind of information on any topic under the sun is available on the Internet.like what we did in mylot.... 3. When people surf the Web, there are numerous things that can be found. Music, hobbies, news and more can be found and shared on the Internet. 4. internet provide online banking, job seeking, purchasing tickets for your favorite movies,guidance services on array of topics engulfing 5. Ecommerce is the concept used for any type of commercial maneuvering, or business deals that involves the transfer of information across the globe via internet Disadvantages 1. you may be facing grave danger as your personal information such as name, address, credit card number etc can be accessed by other culprits to make your problems worse. 2. I hate this... Spamming refers to sending unwanted e-mails in bulk, which provide no purpose and needlessly obstruct the entire system. 3. Virus is nothing but a program which disrupts the normal functioning of your computer systems. Though, internet can also create havoc, destruction and its misuse can be very fatal, the advantages of it outweigh its disadvantages.

The internet has made the world smaller. It has allowed people from different parts of the world to communicate. Paris is not anymore far from where we live, so is London and New York. It has been entertaining too. We can view videos that have been shown before and listen to our favorite music over and over again. I think it will be a disadvantage if we consume most of our time here, than spending some time outdoors and get some fresh air. It is up to us to manage and control our time on spending in front of the monitor.

Hey, Well I think that the advantages are that we can communicate with others quicker, such as email and chat, watch videos, play games. Disadvantages are that our health is at risk, and so is our eye site, you might need glasses at a very early age. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

I think that there are a lot of good things about the internet. Communication has become a lot easier and faster, and I think that is great. I used to write snail mail letters to my friends from Australia, and it usually took about 2 weeks for a letter to get from Denmark to Australia. Now we can communicate via emails which is a lot faster. The internet has made it easier to keep in touch with friends from the around the world, and I think that is one of very positive things. It has also become a lot easier to find information about almost any topic, and I think that is another positive thing. One of the bad things about the internet is that you can get addicted to it, and some people end up spending so much time online that they are neglecting the their lives in the real world. Another bad thing about the internet is the fact that it is so easy to hide your real personality. It has become easier for pedophile men etc to get in touch with children, because they can hide their real identity.
