The internet made life more convenient. To what extent do you agree?

Nowadays the internet has facilitated our society like never before since the “dot-com bubble” burst years ago. I would totally agree with

this

statement and the reasons for

this

will be addressed in the following paragraphs.

First

of all, it is undeniable that our way of communication has become more convenient today than in previous days. The net has created a global village breaking down communication barriers by connecting people all over the world.

For instance

, we can get in touch with our friends and family,

however

distant we are, via email and other messaging applications.

Moreover

, we can stay close through social networks like Facebook, Twitter, etc. so that we can consume information around the world in real-

time

with just a click.

Secondly

, the web has not only opened gateways to global education for our generation but

also

evoked our thirst for knowledge by enabling the free flow of information.

For example

, learning materials for my study can be downloaded easily, and I can quickly gather various facts by surfing the net.

In addition

to

this

, different online courses widely offered by the world’s famous universities, unlike formal education, eliminate common boundaries

such

as

time

, accommodation and transportation i.e. we can learn the lessons at our own paces anywhere at our convenient

time

.

Finally

, the development of the “world-wide-web” has indeed brought about advances in the economical sector

such

as online banking and online shopping. With online banking, there is much less processing

time

needed as well as unnecessarily complicated steps avoided so our businesses can run smoothly.

Similarly

, we can save precious

time

and energy, yet still can choose from a variety of products via online shopping. In conclusion, the internet has eased our way of living particularly in social, educational and economical aspects.

Therefore

, there is no doubt for me to believe that our modern life engines have been facilitated by the internet oil.
