This week in computer programming, my class talked a lot about the internet and how it is constantly changing the world as we know it. Of course, communication and data storage have become more accessible for everyone, but in light of that, a whole new meta-world is being defined. According to one of the Ted talks that my class listened to, the internet is actually starting to change the physical world to a certain extent, since the world is being altered so that the inernet works in the best possible way. For example, new cables are being laid, towers built, etc. If found this aspect most interesting because I never imagined that the interenet could ever have this effect on the world.
