ABSTRACT

It is now common knowledge that the Internet has radically changed the way people do business and live day-to-day life. The Internet has opened new channels of communication within society in very much the same fashion as stone plates, papyrus, and books did. Today, people communicate with their business partners and clients through e-mail, check inventory and fulfill orders, make travel reservations, take care of their Christmas shopping, conduct research, store information, and accomplish many other vital tasks faster and more efficiently using the Internet.
