The Internet

          There are so many sites on the Internet filled with valuable information as well as non-valuable information. While a lot of people use the Internet for social networking, many now use it to find out their daily news.
          Topics like the weather, is something that most people use the internet in order to find out. The use of the Internet is fast and easy. If someone would want to know what the weather is going to be like for the day, they would be able to hop on and find out at whatever time they like. Not only do they get to find out their local weather, but if one was to go on vacation, the Internet is the perfect place to find out what the weather will be like for wherever they are going. People don't have to wait for their local news to be on anymore.
          It seems like now in days everyone is moving in such a fast pace and the Internet is the most convenient place to get information. The Internet is now able to tag along with everyone with the invention of smart phones. Phone apps come in handy for many as well. People are able to download apps that give them specific information for whatever it is they may be in search for.
          In "Internet a tope source of local info: Pew report," an article written by Suzzane Choney, a survey is used to back up her information on how the Internet is the main source for many news topics. Something that is very agreeable from her article was the fact that many use social networking sites in order to find out breaking news. Once one person finds something out, many others will soon know as soon as that person hits the "update status" button. News on the Internet travels very fast.
          The television and newspapers are still put to good use. Some do not resort to the Internet as their source of information, but when you look at numbers, the majority does.
