The World Wide Web

So, right now, millions of people are logging on and viewing countless videos, picture, web pages, etc.
     for the record:Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) are different things.The internet connects people so they can play online games, text,blog via a cell phone, connect their phone/device to the weather etc. The WWW is the community formed by the different websites ,web links ,weblogs and shopping sites (web+web+web=shop).
     How come young people are so attached to this device, only nearly 30 years old? Because it allows them to interact miles away, and as they try new things, they find stuff unimaginable (trust me, my imagination is bigger than a giant) and find people who they would never meet otherwise.
     Right now, touch screen technology has improved significantly over the last years, and Apple discovered this. Using their new products (iPod Touch, and the iPhones) Apple allowed Google to hitch a ride with  ads and such.Also, the new touch screens attracted attention to Apple's better (and expensive) computers. And Apple's runner up place was upgraded to winner. What happened to Microsoft? Simple:They didn't worry about Apple, then found out they're ahead in the market, and made a smart phone.Too late.
     So, more people discovered the Internet.
Older people didn't hitch on to this, because they're attached to things that were new in their day. Don't blame them, people have that feeling, it's human nature.
   Bad things about the internet:People spend no time outside real world anymore. I totally agree.Also, there are some things that really should not show up when a kid Googles "Happiness in all ways". The Government should REALLY post some restrictions on that.
   Well, I need to go to bed.... so i guess i can't finish this :S
