Week 13 blog- Facebook

Ho do you think online life will change the workplace, living situation, and other ares in your life?

The 12 points listed in the article were really really interesting to me. For some reason Facebook has always interested me in many ways. I just think it is so genius. I watched a 60 minute episode on Mark Zimmerman the 26 year old who created Facebook. He stated the site at Harvard when he was only 19 years old. He did it with his friends and now he is literally taking over the web. More people used Facebook last year then people used Google.com That tells you how popular it is getting.

I think that our internet world will change in many ways as time goes on. Things are already changing in ways like you don't even have to leave your house anymore to do anything. You can shop, pay bills, and work all from one place. When I was born computers weren't around like they were today. Only in the past few years has the world of internet and technology changed in very dramatic ways.

To get on topic the article gave 12 points how things are changing. The best point I thought was # 12... Hackers are hero's. This is so true. The word Hacker has always had a negative condensation but in the internet world now its a good thing. It means to create something new. I also like the point "power comes from sharing information not hoarding it." You can defiently tell that this is also true.

In conclusion I would have to say that the internet is going to change everyones life in the future... Little kids now have cell phones and use computers all day long. Soon this world will completely be on the web. Literally!
