Think Piece-Week 1

I think the most interesting thing I read was “The Difference Between the Internet and World Wide Web.” I did not know that they were different. I was slightly confused at first, but I know the difference now, although it is hard for me to give examples, except ones that were in the article. It does make me want to find out if there are many other things like the World Wide Web. I think that there is, but I do not know. I think it is odd that I only knew half a week ago, since I read the article on Thursday, that they are different. I took a class in middle school about the internet, and maybe since I was in middle school they did not tell us, but I think they should have.

The other thing I found interesting was that I did not think the Atlantic Cable would be made be the 1940’s. When I read it was from 1857 to 1858, I was shocked. I wonder if there are still a lot of wires, or if most things are done by satellites. I want to know if in the future the wires will not be used at all. I also want to know where all of the wires are.
