summary of the epic 2015
The Epic 2015 recaps the
events that took place in the year 2015. 1989: this is the year that Sir Tim
Berners-Lee invents the world wide web. The world wide web was originally
created to and developed to meet the demand of sharing information between institutions,
military and universities. During the year of 1999, Pyra Labs, a dot-com start
up introduces Blogger, a site used for personal publishing. At the beginning of
this introduction, people where far more spectacle of new technology but when
they saw the benefits this new invention promised, News organizations become an
afterthought when people are able to journal, buy, sell and interact with
family and friends on the internet. Google was found to be the most effective
search engine because its algorithm recommended sites or sales to people. newspapers
became less and less appealing while the internet provided all the resources
for anyone to become a journalist. Now days people are able to change
information on websites such as Wikipedia and people will always end up with
misleading information which has become a problem in our society. In the long
run, we can see to why society back then was hesitant to accepting this new
technology era in their personal lives. There is as much privacy as we want to
think we have. Everything from what types of stuff we search to who your third
cousin is. Is available on online and we as a society have accepted that. The more
technology is introduced, the more privacy is lost.
