How the Internet is Changing the World

A great study on how the internet is affecting our lifes, our world, etc.

“The UCLA study will explain how the Internet is changing the world — today, tomorrow, and 20 years from now,” said Jeffrey Cole, director of the UCLA Center for Communication Policy and principal investigator of the study.

“Everyone either loves or hates the Internet, but there’s no question that the impact of the Internet is real and profound — certainly the most important communication technology of the generation to come,” Cole said.

“The UCLA Internet Study will provide the first long-term exploration of how life is being transformed by computers and the Internet, with year-to-year comparisons of the social and cultural changes produced as people use this extraordinary technology. This study is also the first to analyze these broad questions about the Internet on a global scale.” [via MediaSavvy]
