Life before the Internet versus after the Internet
Introduction
The traditional means of communication like the radio, newspaper articles, and television are suffering dramatic changes in the dominatingera of information over the internet. News over the internet is interesting and actually very popular. There is no doubt, there is a before and after in regards to the internet when it comes to information. One thing that stands in my mind is blogs. With the amount of information and the speed of the internet-- it is amazing. Before you had to wait for the newspaper to be informed of what ishappening. Now I can be informed of what is happening in the world anytime. Also, the variety and accessibility of the information is incredible.

A blogger before the high-speed internet had to be informed of a topic by reading. I am going to set foot in a blogger’s shoes of the past. I arrive at my office where all the publications arrived for the day. I come across the twentythat interest me. I read each single magazine, or better, just read half of a page. I go to the Barnes and Nobles in which I buy my three local diaries, 17 diaries are from another country, 10 magazines on the latest technology, 3 magazines on photography, 2 magazines on theater, 4 on videogames, and finally one for cooking. I start reading with a scissor in my hand. I separate the notes and articlesthat interest me most in which I will respond to them. This will permit me to read more about the separated article and buy more of the reading material. I will stop and place my feet out of the blogger of the past. A blogger of the past certainly had to have more time on their hands then today.
With the access of the internet we can have the same connection of the radio and television. There...
