The Power of Information
We
are living in a small World where everything is legible, available, and tangible.
Apparently, this new generation gets information of all sort within their
reach. Some people call this fact : Globalisation. And obviousely, in this global
village, information is power. Those who have information in this world are, no
doubt, the most powerful people on this planet. You have personally noticed
that, haven´t you ?
"The future influences the present as much as the past ." Friedrich
Nietzsche. Nowadays , people all over the world get access to the latest
technologies. We are living on the cutting-edge of many new technologies such
as: Desk Top Computers, Portable computers, Cellphones, Smart phones, Ipod,
Ipad, to mention a few. Internet accses today is world wide. People of all ages
take advantage of this highway of information for different purposes.
Many
students browse or surf the net whenever they have homework assignments,
investigations, or any piece of information they feel pertinent for their
personal intellectual growth. Businness people create their web pages or
websites in order to do business more
attractively by posting advertisement and commercials and giving information.
Others buy online because it is sometimes easier to get good bargain on Ebay or
Amazon and have things deliver at their earliest convenient.
Evidently, this flow of informaton really affects our lives today, and
will influence even better or worse our future,depending on how accurately we
endeavor to manage it. Young people are the most vulnarable; at this point,
parental responsibilitis are crucial. Therefore, they should keep, sorry they
must keep a sharp eye on the way they use internet. So as you can see,
information is power; however, we should be extremely careful. It is just a
two-edged sword. Don´t say I din´t warn you.
Frederick Pierre Antoine
