Reflection Blog 2

In this week, I have understood more the difference between the web and the internet. Web and internet are different. I do not know that web and internet are different until this week. It is fascinating to know that the history of web and internet. I started to appreciate more on the people who put efforts into this work which makes the world now. Facebook, skype, streaming media, are not internet. Internet is the system which support the web from my understanding. More I learn about the internet, I become more grateful to it. The best thing about the internet is free and open. It was created by government but it is not controlled by any countries and government. Nobody owns it. Everyone could write or post something on the internet. It makes the world become more connected. I remember the first time I can skype my parents on my mission because they allow us to skype our parents in the middle of my mission. I was able to see my mother’s face. I could feel that we are so closed and connected. I remember when I first came to Hawaii, I don’t have a cell phone. Facebook become an important tool for communicating with my friends here and the friends back home. It is all because of the internet which allows me to still have the connection with my friends. Although there are some disadvantages about the internet, there are still advantages. It all depends on how we use it. I understand better on the social media and technologies.
