Dot.com to dot.bomb

Hmm... If I were asked to sum up what we had just learned... I'd have to say the AOL dinosaur was eating the Prodigy dinosaur ... and then everything just went downhill. I really don't understand how could something like this get so ... bubbly and explode. Seriously though, it just seems really weird since I was oblivious to any of this happening, happily playing on Neopets (my pet ruled at the time).

Topic for Presentation

The book I will be presenting is Burn Rate: How I Survived the Gold Rush Years on the Internet. I'm reading this book because from the start of class I've been curious about how the internet started and what it was like when I first ignorantly started to use it.

Services that are available

There are plenty of services that are available online. Some services allow you to communicate with other people through the internet and help you solve your problem. Others like Expedia allow you to compare and find flights with relative ease. One that I kinda find funny is homework help online. Not that I would need to use it, but its just kinda funny how something like this would be online. Some services like homework help though, I'd prefer to actually talk to someone and have someone physically in front of me.

Comfort in Purcashing Online

I am not really scared of purchasing things online. I actually think its quite addictive, especially since you have to wait for your purchase to come. You don't get that instant gratification when you buy something from a store. Anyway, I'm really used to buying things online, but a lot of my family members are really scared to buy things online because of theft.
