Internet

Fun fact: the first thing typed into a computer was "LO" trying to type the words "LOG IN". Today's people just know the internet as something you use to talk to people or to look up homework answers. But the actual reason the internet was ever invented was for the nuclear was with the Soviet Union; and the Pentagon created it. The internet, unlike most of the other forms of mass communication, took awhile to become popular. Nobody has the tools to use the internet! The internet takes a lot of things to be able to use it: Computer, hard drive, internet access, it's a lot to pay for and most people didn't have the money for it. But now, that is isn't out of everyone's price range, over 2.4 BILLION users were on the internet as of 2012.

Just think about it, we use the internet for almost everything- from school to watching movies on Netflix, to finding friends that you haven't seen in twenty years. The possibilities are endless! Most people are now getting their news from the internet (News websites, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.) People now shop online instead of going to the stores that might not be located in their city. It really has no limits, and I think it's not too long before there will be online school for everyone. Instead of going to school you'll just go to your computer and learn everything.
