The internet is an extremely powerful tool that has completely revolutionised the way the world works. Used correctly, it has the potential to inform, educate, entertain and uplift. It touches every part of our lives. We write emails at work, check Google for the latest sports scores and movies and hop onto Facebook on our cellphones to see what our friends are doing. However, many people stick to safe territories because they don’t know what else is available. Others avoid going online completely because they are worried about their safety or daunted by the scope and unfamiliarity of the internet.

depth.
