Since its conception, the world wide web, simply referred to today as the Internet, has taken the world by storm. From creating new opportunities for global commerce to staying in 24/7 contact with friends and family, the Internet has forever changed how we live our lives.

Just as the Internet has and continues to do as time passes, social media has made our world shrink. Websites like GeoCities, MySpace, Twitter, Facebook, Google+ LinkedIn, Vine, and Instagram have opened doors for online networking and business that weren’t there before. Citizens from countries miles apart are instantly able to share various bits of information with one another via this miracle we call the internet.
