After reading the articles, I wonder what is to become of the World Wide Web. The internet has grown to a massive source of information. Big companies or everyday people are able to share, connect, and sell information. Social media such as Facebook, blogs, instagram, and YouTube, make it possible. The information obtain from these sites are used for various reasons. It may be for profit or personal use. Big companies have the ability to expand their networking. For example, some websites you no longer have to create a login. You could log in through Facebook. Once you log in, the information given to Facebook is now share with the new website. You no longer have to take the time to write you address, birthday, or your email address. Everyday people are the reason for which these changes are possible. Bloggers, yelpers, and commenters, write their ideas, thoughts and complaints daily on the web. Maybe someone wrote a blog on how much they hate having to write their personal information, create screen names and passwords for every site. Someone else commented how they have so many different screen names and passwords, they cannot remember. Then a Facebook developer read the blog and came up with Facebook connect. The World Wide Web is for every changing by the information generated from everyday people.

One of my biggest issues with the new aspects Of the web is sharing information from one site to another. I think there is a big security problem when it comes to adding information via internet and mot importantly not knowing where the information is being sent to. I always think about who is the person behind the screen that is doing the transaction. I ask myself where is this person working from being that now in days most people work from home or does this person have a past criminal record. I am very skeptical on the entire idea of information being saved online. It is so easy for people to hack computers now and steal information. According to Better Business Bureau, identity theft is most popular amongst people between the ages of 20-29. I have some type of technology paranorma and i am constontly erasing my cookies and the internet history. Meanwhile, I really dont even know if that actually can minimize the chance of someone stealing my identity. It gives me comfort knowing I’m deleting the informatin but when i actually think about it, where does the deleted information go to?
