The internet is a vast space of information, websites, and now blogs. Blogs are a new term for message boards, a place where you can connect to others with similar interests and share your thoughts and ask questions. Blogs not only exist on personal web profiles but also on food web sites, crafts web pages, and even can be found as a handy tip section for the gardener. Sharing what you know is a great source on the internet to find firsthand information on how not to go about doing certain things, and how to do things a better, an easier way.
The internet is a great way to stay in touch with long lost relatives and friends and you can chat with your favorite people everyday, for free. Saving money on long distance phone calls and stamps.
With the invention of the digital camera, the internet is a great way to share photos, all for free. A digital camera eliminates the need to process film, and lets family and friends view your pictures from your own web page or sent right to their e-mail box.
You can get a free E-Mail account from Yahoo!, MSN Hotmail, and a number of other places online. You can set up your own free web page to post family pictures and to share what�s going on. Free web pages can be done on Yahoo!, and a number of other web sites. The web building tools come with family photo album templates so you just choose a page you like and then upload your own photos. For example, if you have a digital camera, you will upload your pictures to your computer and then to the internet to share with family and friends. Digital cameras are easy to use and you simply plug in a cord that goes from the camera to your computer, and voila your pictures are on your computer ready to be shared over the internet!
