World Wide Web

The World Wide Web in the future will be something we can't think about now but if you look in just the last few years in how it has taken over and replaced a lot of things that now can be done on the web. Clouds allows people to save data of all sort on the internet and to be honest I'm not sure how it exactly works or anything about it  but when companies are going after the market then there has to be a lot of opportunity in the the cloud business and getting people to trust online storage and have people use it instead of your rivals.  It is intriguing on how much potential there is in the web an everything it has done already and the direction it is headed in. All of us are guilty of using the web to help us with assignments or anything else you can think of. The web is always going to be there and it's improvements are helping us day by day and we can only wait to see where it takes us.

Networks and Communication

In the beginning of the new technology phase the best way to keep in touch with one another was to email but with technology improving as fast as it has it is changing communication on every level. I believe that the text messaging is still the most used form of communitcation but it is alwas improving on a daily basis. It has taken over all forms off communication because of how fast and relieable it has been to communicate through email, skype, IM, etc. Skyping for class, emailing students, filling applications online, buying things online, messaging companies for help instead of being on the phone for an hour are ways the communication has improved and it is getting even better to the point people are less and less likely to use phone and instead communicate through the internet.
