About this listen

 The Internet just came out of the blue, people were a bit suspicious of what it really was about at first. No one had special interests in it to begin with. But now fast-forward that a few decades later, the internet has become an everyday necessity. Thanks to genius scientists like Tim Berners-Lee for creating the world wide web, and making the internet less techie. Since the web became more interactive and easier to use by the common folk, it grew like a mushroom and covered the entire globe in almost an instant. Almost everything nowadays happens online. Ask anyone who lives in a civilized world if they can live for a whole month without being connected to some Wi-Fi or broadband, and he/she shall testify to you that it's not possible for them. Whenever the internet gets disconnected in the neighborhood, people become so furious, more than when there is an electric power blackout. The Internet has become so essential nowadays that you can't connect with your loved ones without it. Everything in our professional and personal lives has all moved online. When you want to visit your family in the countryside, you first connect with them on social media and make them aware of your coming, then you stay online where you book your flight, and do all the banking transactions right there on the web. Reconnecting with your loved ones has all been facilitated by the internet.

Technology has now landed in the hands of our kids, the people we least expected to be in need of it, and they appear to be more proficient and advanced than we grownups are, they love all things that are techie, soon their capabilities in this high tech world will surpass those of our own while we continue to belittle them. Recently I was shocked to come across an eight-year-old girl who owned a blog that she edited almost twice a week without the help of anyone, even her own parents didn’t help her do it. It gets updated four times faster than my own website which can sometimes take a month or more to add new content, with the new opportunities come new dangers, It now appears that child protection will soon become a meaningless phrase because the children are out there doing things for themselves, "how can we help them when we don’t even know what exactly they are doing?" says a parent, ''sometimes they end up teaching us new things, when we try to investigate their activities online.''


The kids of today are born with lots of high-tech gadgets in their hands, they get homeschooled and learn everything online, they graduate and find work online, they make friends and find love online, and also get married there on the web. When they move to their matrimonial home they shop for all their groceries and household appliances online. They never need to move out of their family home to do anything. Right now if the internet were to disappear, it would be the equivalent of what happened back then when Europe was cast into the dark ages several centuries ago. It would be the equivalent of being set back in time into the stone age of ten thousand years ago.
