'Mom, what's the Internet?'Imagine yourself doing your monthly household budget one evening when your four-year-old daughter suddenly walks in asking you that. At that moment, you're busy trying to figure out why you've had more credits than debits on your balance sheet. You felt that your brain is about to short-circuit. And it's past her bedtime.'John Noah Mason Smith, you're forgetting that you're talking to a 60-year-old.'Your grandma calls you because she wants to learn how to use the Internet. You explain that it's not easy to teach that over the phone. It has to wait until you come over for Thanksgiving. She vehemently insists. You ask why. She tells you that she's heard about Tinder. And she wants her own account. Now.As you can imagine, explaining what social media is to a child or to a senior can, in itself, be challenging. How much more if you're asked to explain the Internet as a whole? Through this eBook, you'll encounter tons of metaphors that can help you do exactly that. From the seemingly out-of-this-world concept of the cloud, to how letter gets delivered without paper, to how a person's face ends up on a computer monitor, this eBook will showcase examples as models for explanation for the innocent young ones to the tenured baby boomer and Gen Xers. In the end, you'll realize that while you're aware of the technological gap that exists between generations, you won't really feel how significant that is until you're faced in a situation where you have to explain things to the unknowing.Now, please take note that not all of the discussions and examples offered in this eBook may be suitable for a child or a senior. Learning is still subjective and contextual so there may be times that you will be required to be creative.What this eBook intends to do is to just show you some metaphorical examples of how to answer those simple questions that are tough to answer if your audience is not technologically savvy like you.
Search engines are the gateway to the internet. Google, Yahoo, Bing, DuckDuckGo and other help millions of people every minute. These companies got so big, their indexes algorithms gained a lot of complexity, and have created millions of new jobs for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) agencies, Digital Marketing and E-commerce. Search Engines want to be relevant so you can keep using them and they can keep money running ads. Is the most relevant article for the big majority really the most important article for you? Are you really interested in the tabloid link-bait over-the-top headlines that most people click? If it rotates around keeping the ads running, is everything we search trying to sell us something? Is everything we search trying to understand our values so they can better influence us into buying?Meanwhile, outside of the Search Engines, SEO specialists work to manipulate their position on the Search Engines.Also, digital marketers have carefully created each piece of content for you, sometimes showing evidence for arguments on both sides.Privacy was not a concern till 2018 and companies were interested in increasing their sales by having our information and categorizing our social and economic aspects on search patterns and social medial information we give out.Search engines are evolving to something bizarre. There are arguments for everything you search. There are ads for everything we search. SEO specialists manipulate Search Engines in ways search engines can't punish them. And even reputable websites are not free from biases.

Today, we spend a lot of time on social media. Some rely solely on social media as their means of information.
