Net Age

I saw a show on BBC today. It's about technological stuffs. The presenter said something interesting. A rhetoric, actually. TV is dead, long live the internet? Well, that statement will be true in the not too distant future. The cyberspace is some sort of a final frontier. It is mindbogglingly huge, and still there are uncharted space out there.

It could substitute many things. You can read on-line instead of sitting in the library, you can learn on-line instead of sitting in the classroom. You can meet people on-line instead of travelling to faraway places. You can watch TV shows on the internet. You don't need to go to the post office anymore because you have your e-mail account. Net banking also allows you to pay the bills on-line. You can do shopping on-line too, avoiding hours of traffic jam.

Many things maybe considered as endangered stuffs right now. Newspapers, magazines, books, stamps, even schools. Despite maybe some if not a lot of people will argue my opinion, those stuffs are counting their days.

Internet is also addictive. One click leads to another which leads to another and so on. You chat, browse, watch movies, download stuffs, write your blog, shopping, and suddenly it's been a full 24 hours spent in front of the LCD.

Anyways, it's weekend again. Will complete the final disc of CSI season 6 and move on to the Miami spinoff.

See ya later.
