===The media now-a-days is very different from the media in the past. We have the television, for example, which is a very recent media. In the past, we had newspapers, but that was slow to propagate. Then the radio appeared and it was more interactive and fascinating to the listeners. Time passed... until the television appeared. I t was the first time that sound and image were combined in a media, so the television was and still is a fantastic invention. The technology developed and created the computer and then the INTERNET. The INTERNET is a tool that enables us to communicate with people from everywhere and learn about the world events and spend time with games and other things. ===

The INTERNET is the greatest "brain" of all.
===With the INTERNET came the 'social networks' such as //Facebook, Hi5, Twitter, MySpace, Skype, etc.// While it is true that such means of communication are useful and practical, they also bring many dangers to our society, so the opinions on if they should or not be used diverge.===

The Internet is known around the world.
===According to Internet World Stats, 1,96 billion people have access to the Internet, representing 28.7% of the world population. According to the research, Europe has almost 420 million users, more than half the population. Over 60% of the population of Oceania have Internet access, but this percentage is reduced to 6.8% in Africa. In Latin America and the Caribbean, a little over 200 million people have Internet access, and nearly 76 million are Brazilians.===



=== To conclude, technology is always developing. From newspapers to the INTERNET, the world has always developed and will always develop. Who knows? ? In a few years we could have new media, even better than the INTERNET. We just have to wait and see. ===
