The concept of information superhighway has been around for more than a decade, but until 1993 it was merely a technological imagination. Today information superhighway has become an everyday topic and is making its entry into our lives.
Information superhighway is an unprecedented nationwide, or worldwide, electronic communications network that connects everyone to everyone else, and provides just about any sort of electronic communication imaginable. Hook up your computer to the Internet and you are on your information superhighway. The purpose of information superhighway is to provide remote electronic banking, schooling, shopping, taxpaying, game playing, video conferencing, movie ordering, medical diagnosing, etc. Information superhighway will make many things you do easier and more convenient. For example, instead of calling your friends one by one to tell them the party is canceled, you’ll simply send a single e-mail message to everyone at once. And if you live in a rural area far from a major hospital, telemedicine may allow a specialist in London to diagnose you without you having to travel farther than to your local physician’s clinic. Information superhighway may also pull together newspaper and magazine articles from around the world on a particular topic of your own interests. If you like to shop with someone who lives in another city, you may call him and then do some shopping together for an hour or two.
Whether you like it or not, information superhighway will change the way we live.
In order to "run" on the superhighway of information, what do you need to do first?
