The Internet


"A world of information awaits you on the Internet. But how will you find it? Casting the net." Rosalind Resnick

The Internet has revolutionized forever the way people can communicate and business can be conducted. Each day new additions are made to existing applications and new sites are added. What the ultimate shape or size of the Internet is hard to imagine. It already covers North America like a blanket, and its coverage extends to the most unlikely of places. Check into an Internet discussion group on any evening and do not be surprised to see users from Budapest, Fiji, or Brasilia.
