INTERNET PAPERS AND ONLINE EDITIONS



Have you seen an internet cafe? Nowadays internet cafes are as common as STD /ISD booths. If you have not visited an internet café, please go and see what is happening there.
Internet is a computer based worldwide interlink network. It has no country barriers. So a person sitting in India can access an internet site in USA through the computer network. This has made revolutionary changes in communication the world over.
Recently almost all newspapers have internet editions. For example, the Hindustan Times or Indian Express or Times of India can be read on the internet through their net editions. Each paper has a dotcom name for their site, like www.hindustantimes.com or www.times of india.com. While you have to pay for buying a newspaper, the internet edition of that newspaper is free of charge and is accessible if you have a computer and internet connection.
