CONNECTED COMPUTERS

The most useful gadget ever invented is the computer

connected to Internet. I want to emphasize the word
Internet, because a non-connected computer it’s less useful
than one which is connected.
The first statement in favor of this invention is that it’s a
multiuse gadget. Computers can work as an encyclopedia.
You can use it to search all kinds of information (images,
videos, text, music, news…); you can write and read,
prepare presentations (Power Point, Prezi…), make posters
and pamphlets (Canva, Piktochart), edit photos or videos
(Photoshop, WeVideo).
You can meet new people from all around the world and
talk and watch them and also it allows you to meet your
friends and familiars.
Also, you can buy and sell online (you can decide to buy
items in specialized websites, for example, webs specialized
in sport items, in books or in clothes; or you can buy items
in webs which offer different kinds of items such as
Amazon).
You can watch films, series, listen to all genres of music,
see art (there are some online museums), read all kind of
books, novels, poems, essays, comics, manga… Even you
can create artistic products and share it with people in the
net (YouTube it’s a good website).
People can search for jobs and lot of people work online
from home. Even people can learn through Internet
(YouTube tutorials, Khan Academy, online courses or
specialized webpages…).
I find Internet and computers very useful because it’s a
source of knowledge (however, not all the content in the
net it’s good) and it’s a great opportunity to meet people
and to know more about any subject. Also, it allows people
to work in very different forms.
There’s no need to recommend the use of computers,
because their use it’s very extended. Every single person in
a developed country have at least a mobile or a laptop
connected to the net. However, to all the people who is able
to use it take advantages of their benefits. Some people
(especially young people) use Internet in a dangerous and
inappropriate way. I recommend to all these people to
search for interesting information and to discover new
applications, read, write, listen to music or meet interesting
people.
