I strongly view the Internet as a means of opening up new communication possibilities worldwide. In this essay I shall elaborately explain my view point.

Internet is a type of Media. It is a means of unit as well as mass communication. It is a mode of information and entertainment too. Other types of media are broadly, News Papers, Magazines, Radio and Television. Internet, News Papers and TV are the most popular media these days. TV had replaced Radio & listening to radio has become obsolete now.

In the recent days, Internet has gained maximum popularity. This is capable of giving information on any subject, product, and service, utility including past history and news.
Because of wide spread computerization these days, this has become popular. Especially students and younger generation use it the most.

Majority of population use Internet for news and entertainment. One gets latest information and can keep pace with the time. Needless to say “Information Is Power”.

Internet also helps promoting business through advertisements of variety of latest products & services. Besides there are many exclusive business portals on websites that give minute-by-minute information on Stock Markets & the Business World.

Educational, Training and Developmental programs are also available on websites. These are pretty beneficial for the community and especially students. In addition many awareness programs on Health & Environment play very important role in our lives.

Indeed in the Internet communication, personal touch has reduced to a very great extent. However taking into account the advantages and disadvantages of internet, the advantages are many and disadvantages are very few.

In summary, the Internet is a means of opening up new communication possibilities worldwide.
