In today's world, people are surrounded by computers. Many people spend most of their day in front of a device. This trend will only increase in the years to come as electronics become more and more integrated into our lives. Along the same lines, more and more electronic devices are connected to the Internet. The age-old idea that the Internet was a place you go to in a web browser is now a thing of the past. The devices are able to communicate with each other whether they are ten or ten thousand feet away. This brings with it both amazing new possibilities, but also a host of problems, including ethical dilemmas and security risks. Since the tech boom of around 2000, people have been exposed to computers almost daily. This boom was accompanied by an evolution of the Web, called “Web 2.0”. This evolution has brought many new technologies and views on how the Internet should work. Since then, the web has become more user-friendly, allowing even computer-illiterate people to have their own online identity. People began integrating services like MySpace, Facebook, and email into their daily lives, even going so far as to discuss them with friends. Cell phones are the essential accessory for everyone, especially for teenagers. The Internet has essentially become an important part of our lives, and all thanks to the developments of Web 2.0. One of the most important aspects of Web 2.0 that makes it such an improvement over "Web 1.0" is the use of dynamic web pages. . Instead of having static pages that must be reloaded by the browser, a user can only reload a certain part of the website. This increases speed, decreases the traffic load on the server hosting the site, and ultimately puts the user in the middle of paper......posed to both computers and the World Wide Web. For most of us, going online is almost second nature. We are the ones who will fill the vast amount of jobs that are already opening up and will continue to multiply over the next ten years. Most of the people working now are simply too old and don't have enough knowledge to fix anything. If we don't do something to prevent the problems that are sure to arise, then who will?
