Make Your Own!

Like any new technology the internet is full of potentially good outcomes but it comes with plenty of potentially negative outcomes. This has always been true of any new technology. Try to remember that the technology itself isn't good or bad, its how we choose to use it that's good or bad.

First, some of the good stuff we can get from the internet:

Improved communications via email, instant messaging, internet phones and video.

Data storage and sharing across the world

The potential of networking ideas and knowledge without boundaries

The democratization of information

Then some of the bad stuff:

• Internet crime such as online scams
• Misuse of information for negative results
• Character attacks and "cyber-bullying"
• Exploitation of children and child predators
