“The Internet is probably most famous for the ability to spread information, fact or fiction”. http://www.cookieshouse.com/schoolprod/1018essa.htm
The Internet is used daily by many individuals around the world. The Internet has influenced the way individuals communicate (through e-mail or blog), learn and shop. A great deal of individuals rely on the internet to get the news from around the world, read their favorite newspaper, or magazine via the Internet. Individuals can research medication or an illness, not to say that whatever is being researched and is the fact or fiction. It is imperative to locate a valid source from which information is taken from. Anyone can post anything, but validity and authenticity is extremely important no matter what type of research is being done. The internet was a tremendously beneficial to Obama during the recent campaign, but it can also be devastating to someone else if lies were posted. During the presidential campaign – everyday when I logged on to the internet there was always something new and interesting to read about Obama.
In conclusion, anyone using the Internet should know their sources and really research their topic to know if what they are ready is bona fide and legitimate.
