Internet Essay

Survey of mass comm

               

                The invention of the internet has changed many things. It has especially changed the personal lives of many people. There are certain websites that people in today's society cant live without. I am one of those people, and the websites I cant live without would include Facebook, Google, YouTube, and regions.com.

                The reason I couldn't live without Facebook, is because of my family that’s in Brazil. I'm originally from Brazil, but I moved to the USA as a child. Most of my family is still in Brazil, and the most common way of communication is through Facebook  Whenever I want to talk to one of my cousins, I know I can just get on Facebook. If it happens that they are online, then we can communicate instantaneously. If they aren't online, I can send them a message and they will respond to me as soon as they see it.

                Another website I couldn’t live without is Google. I understand that Google is just a website that takes you to other websites, but it makes it simpler to find things you’re looking for. When I was looking to buy my first car, the first thing I did is go on Google, and type in “Cars for sale.” It showed me links to various car dealerships. Google allows you to find websites that you wouldn’t even imagine existed otherwise.

                YouTube is another important website to me. I think that YouTube has changed the way that the world operates. People can upload a video of them playing a song onto YouTube one day, and sign a record deal with a major label because of it the next. I also think I couldn’t live without YouTube, because I think that it has made the world a smaller and more interactive place. People in China can upload videos, and I can watch them here in America. The world can watch the same things,  laugh at the same videos, and listen to the same music, because of YouTube.

                A lot of people in today’s world see very little need to actually step foot into a bank. You can pretty much do anything you need, that is bank related, on the banks website. This is why I personally couldn’t live without Region.com. I can check my balance online, transfer money online, and I have direct deposit set up with my job, so I literally never need to physically go into a bank. With online banking being so accessible to anyone with an account, it takes away the hassles of having to waste gas driving to the bank, waiting in line at the bank and dealing with grumpy people employees. It makes the banking experience all around more pleasurable.

                Everyone in today’s society is going to have some sort of website that they can’t live without. Sometime you don’t realize it because of how common it is to us, but without some websites we would be lost. Weather it’s for business or recreation, the creation of the internet and the websites that have come because of it, has, and will continue to change the world as we know it.

In class assignment (plane crash)

            Two people were killed last night in a plane crash at the Centerville Airport.  The men have been identified as Dr. Richard Sabatini, who was piloting the plane and his wife Lydia.

            

            Jeff Belden of the local Federal Aviation Administration field office says that the plane that crashed “was a single-engine plane.” The exact type of plane is the Cessna 172 Skyhawk. The Skyhawk was first flown in 1955 and became the most successful mass produced light weight aircraft.

            

             Sabatini and his wife were going to the exclusive Fontainebleau resort in the north part of the state for a skiing holiday, which is why they were taking the plane, Lt. Feldman says. As they were taking off they crashed into a field adjacent to the runway.

           

              According to the control tower Sabatini was able to get the plane off the ground, but quickly realized he was having trouble controlling the aircraft. It is believed that the loss of control could be due to the foul weather that was occurring during the take off.  The foul weather included sleet and a strong, driving wind.
