Most Important Communication Technology

I would say that the most important communication technology is the internet. I realize that almost everyone has answered this question the same, but I truly believe that without the internet the many things that people once thought were impossible are now easy to do everyday. The internet has opened a whole new realm for people to play in. Now granted some people take advantage of the internet in a bad way, but for those of us who don't it is a great way to learn about people, places and things. One good example of this I can give is doing a research project. With the internet a research project can be done without even entering the library since so many libraries have online databases. Another great example of why the internet is so important is connecting with people. Facebook is a great way to get to know a new roommate before moving to college. It is also a way to connect with people that you might not have seen since high school or even elementary school. The other reason I believe that the internet is so important is its growing popularity. The internet is accessible practically anywhere. My mom has even just upgraded her life with a iPhone so she can check her work email in the car. With all the advancements and new things going on with the internet I believe it is well worth our time to study and learn the most up to date things about it.
