The Internet Today

What’s interesting in, Read:Write, by Mary Harrington and Chris Meade, is how technology is constantly growing and businesses are using the internet and digital media as a form of communication whether it is previously recorded with visual and verbal information or in real time. And since access to the internet is nothing more than a mouse click away in today’s day and age, organizations promote their information or products as much as they can. But now, anyone can post anything from an ad to what the writer thinks or knows, and change the information whenever they please. We see this occur on multiple websites that are categorized as “Blogs.” People can mass-post the same info though they might have subtle differences or imperfections to the original, just as people would in a wiki. I believe they do this to lend a helping hand even though they could possibly be completely wrong. There’s so much possibility on the internet one person can produce that it is astounding how easy it is compared to a decade or so, ago.
