The Internet has impacted our lives across many dimensions: how we shop, learn, consume media, and even travel. What have been the most significant impacts of the proliferation of the Internet on your personal and work lives? Do you feel the impacts have been positive or negative? Why? Can you think of a business or organization that is not impacted by the Internet and information management in today’s globally competitive environment?
The biggest impact on personal and work lives is the flow of information much more quickly than ever before. Communication can be sent instantly through email or direct message, sales can be made in an instant, stock trades can be performed with the click of a button. The economy moves much more quickly and efficiently than before. The results have been mainly positive, but there are also negatives with using the internet, such as things like identity theft, hackers, and personal information lost because of illegal schemes.
I think all businesses and organizations can benefit from the internet in some way, whether it be just to communicate with customers, or more broad like sales and marketing, online accounts, etc.
