The World Wide Web can be an exciting place. It is a place where millions of people can easily reach you and see your message. It is a place in which you can explore the world. It is a place in which the amount of available information increases every second and information becomes obsolete in an instant. It is a place in which technology changes are measured in hours; ancient history is last month; and the future is this afternoon. It is a place in which fortunes are made and lost every day.
The things that make the World Wide Web so exciting are also the things that make it so frightening. The things that are successful for one are exactly the same things that cause others to fail. In short, the World Wide Web is a place where there is no distinction between good and bad; right and wrong.
