  • Before we get onto the positive effects of internet use, let’s start with these much touted negative side effects.

      before we talk about the positive effect, we first talk something about negetive.
  • The same things were said about rock music when records were at their most popular, and about televisions when they were first invented.

      This is an Analogy: The comparison of among the Internet, rock music, and television. They are popular and controversial (with negative effects).
  • There are also positive effects of internet usage in business.

      Exemplification: Provide an example of good effect in business.

  • anyone can make money online . With the ‘One Child One Laptop’ scheme that’s heading to Africa, and the large-scale attempts to provide the continent with a secure internet connection this could see one of the largest continents joining us online to share their views and earn themselves some money. This will give them access to all the education they could need as well as the resources they’d need to make the most of that. Many of them could see themselves working their way out of poverty – and online they can expect the same wages as other continents as its faceless nature eradicates discrimination. One of the positive effects of internet use then is that it could help some people in escaping from the poverty trap.

      this is another example for good effect of the Internet which is everyone can use the Internet making money.
  • Destroying industry and providing a place for these deviant ‘subcultures’ to converse? Those too are perhaps the most positive effects of internet use. These are the things that promise to change the way politics and business work forever and potentially usher in a new age of supreme democracy and resources. Granted, there are some sub groups online that we’d probably rather there weren’t, but at least if they’re online they can talk to each other and leave us alone. Other ‘subcultures’ however simply reflect different ways of thinking – and the internet gives them an open forum to freely express themselves, something that everyone has a right to do.

      All your comments are relative to highlighted text. It would have been good to have included some floating sticky notes on more visual aspects of the site's message.

  • Reputation management has now become a defining feature of online life for many internet users, especially the young. While some internet users are careful to project themselves online in a way that suits specific audiences, other internet users embrace an open approach to sharing information about themselves and do not take steps to restrict what they share.
  • Compared with older users, young adults are not only the most attentive to customizing their privacy settings and limiting what they share via their profiles, but they are also generally less trusting of the sites that host their content.

      Their logo is good, simple, and uses only two colors which is a good example of logo practice. However, the way it presents this logo in the website made it as a new logo because of the big line behind it and the clip-arts a long with it.
