The Internet has changed the way we communicate with each other, the way we learn about the world and the way we conduct business.

Advances in technology and the Internet have dramatically changed the way we communicate, live, and work.

The Internet is one of the most revolutionary technologies the world has ever known. It has given us an entire universe of information in our pockets.

In one sense, the Internet is like the discovery of the printing press, only it's very different. The printing press gave us access to recorded knowledge. The Internet gives us access, not just to knowledge, but to the intelligence contained in people's crania, access to the intelligence of people on a global basis.

The Internet has made some phenomenal breakthroughs that are still only poorly understood in terms of changing people's ideas of us and them. If mass media, social isolation in the suburbs, alienating workplaces and long car commutes create a bunker mentality, the Internet does the opposite.

The Internet has become important on the world's stage.

The Internet is not just one thing, it's a collection of things - of numerous communications networks that all speak the same digital language.

When I was born, the Internet was barely two years old. It was the preserve of academics, used to connect dozens rather than billions of users. There weren't many who predicted it would transform our world.

I am still cautiously hopeful about the potential of the Internet. But it seems that the greatest revolution in communication has been hijacked by commercial values.

We all know how the Internet has changed the lives of consumers: it's changed how we communicate, how we shop, how we meet people. It's changed things for businesses too.
