Some people believe
that internet access creates problems. There are several possible reasons why
it can happen.
Firstly,
some data may be unverifiable. For example, everytime they search for a data, there would be
lots of choices that would appear on the screen. They would not be sure if the
information they are reading is accurate. Some sources may even have outdated informations. Secondly, some sites may
be unreliable. For instance, people sign up on one site that sells goods
online. The goods would be paid for by a credit card, but the purchaser would
not receive anything. And finally, not everything is available through the net.
When my friend had tried to research for some pictures of 18th century
paintings, he did not find any results. Then he was told by his teacher that
they would only be available in the library.
Others believe
that the Internet is very useful and these are the justifications. Firstly, it
is hard to get the same data, that is available through the Internet by other
means. For example, if the directory information could not give me the accurate
address and contact number of a place I want to visit, I normally check that
information on the Internet. In just one click, I would get all the details of
that certaincompany. Secondly,
research becomes more comprehensive. For instance, I do not have to buy lots of
reading materials to complete my research. Most of the needed information can
be found if I have Internet access. And finally, data is easily compared and
contrasted. I remember, my cousin researched a study about overweight
children a decade ago and at present. He was
able to finish his research in just one day, as compared to a week if he would
not use the Internet.
In conclusion, let
me reiterate that the Internet plays a big role in our life, because it makes
data retrieval and comparison easier.
