The Internet provides a constant, ever-

changing source of information and

entertainment, and can be accessed from

most smartphones as well as tablets,

laptops, and desktop computers. Email,

blogs, social networks, instant messaging,

and message boards allow for both public

and anonymous communication about any

topic.

JobsThe Internet is becoming more and more

essential to getting and keeping a job. Increasingly, companies are moving their

recruitment efforts online, and larger numbers of job-seekers each day are

putting their resumes onto career sites on the Web. More and more frequently, those

without Internet access find themselves taking what's left after the electronic job

matches already have been made.

Government

These days, the words "government" and

"downsizing" often are heard in the same

sentence. On the local, state, and federal

level, the Internet is a big part of efforts to

slim down government budgets. The idea

is to make interactions with the public more

efficient, by putting information online and

cutting down bureaucracy. In the near

future, those without Internet access may

find themselves holding the phone longer,

with fewer and fewer government workers

on the other end to answer

EducationThe Internet is transforming education in the U.S.

America's public schools are working under a government mandate to get wired to the Internet,

and all schools -- public and private, K-12 and college -- are making use of it: distributing and collecting homework by e-mail; holding virtual

classes in chat rooms; broadcasting lectures by streaming video; and more. "Distance learning,"

using information technology, is one of the fastest-growing segments of adult education. Even many professional tutors are taking their services online. And for prospective college students, the Internet

offers the best way to search for scholarship dollars. Those without Internet access will miss out on many

educational opportunities.

Health careIf you need emergency treatment for a toothache,

how do you find a dentist, in the middle of the night? Many HMOs now offer benefits and enrollment

information 24 x 7 x 365, on the Web. Diabetes is one of many ailments that affect African Americans disproportionately. What's the best way to manage it? Some medical facilities now have the ability to

monitor diabetic patients' blood-sugar levels remotely, online. More and more hospitals, private

practitioners, and medical researchers are turning to the Web, putting up sites offering valuable

information to the general public. American medicine is the most technologically advanced in the world,

but Internet access is essential to getting the best it has to offer.

Shopping

More and more consumer transactions are

being done online. It

is more efficient and definitely more

convenient for shoppers, because it allows

them to shop from the comfort of their own

homes. Consumers are able to take

advantage of the best prices through online

auctions, which allow shoppers to name

their own prices for goods or services. And,

when "traditional" routes fail, the Internet

often is the only way to get that hard-to-find

item you really want, or need.

CommunicationE-mail is by far the most inexpensive and efficient way to communicate with persons outside of local calling areas. Many Web

sites now offer e-mail service free of charge. Internet Web sites, e-mail, and more advanced technologies such as

Internet phone service and videoconferencing, are incomparable tools to organize communities and strengthen social bonds within and between African-

American communities.

Beneftis of internet use

The use of the Internet offers a variety of benefits to everyone who is willing to use it. The enormous amount of information

available and the many uses one can have through the internet have made it the most valuable tool in various

settings of a person’s life. The Internet has an enormous amount of publications added on it every day and it’s evolving as the most powerful source of information. Also, use of the Internet has made jobs easier and oversimplified tasks that would take an enormous amount of time before. Moreover,

the Internet has become a great tool for avoiding the hassles of the bank, offering the chance to make the transactions

Furthermore, the widespread use of the Internet has opened new areas of jobs in all countries and

expanded the availabilities of WORKING FROM HOME. Last, the Internet is one of the most valuable

tools in educations since it provides an enormous amount of information and is the greatest source of

reference for educators and students. The electronic libraries are of utmost importance for University

students looking for scientific information for their courses. Another major benefit of the internet is its

ability to minimize distances and provide communication services efficiently and without any

cost. In general, the Internet is a multi-tool with applications on every aspect of someone’s life.
