In celebration of One Internet Day Manila, Cebu, Davao, and One Web Day

... here are the Top 10 Amazing Ways the Web has changed my world.

Amazing Way 1: Forget the necktie. You can work in your pajamas or even in the buff.

Amazing Way 2: You never know who you are chatting with. It has spawned a generation of split personalities.

Amazing Way 3: You come home from work still with the urge to check your e-mail and YM messages and seeing your daughter online you say Hi! and she responds "Where are you now?" You say, you are home.

Amazing Way 4: New learners are way better off than ye olde teachers on emerging skillsets: e.g. searching, connecting, sharing and collaborating. Are we ready for the friendster generation?


Amazing Way 5: You can tutor your kids who live in the boondocks via instant messenger. Did I say boondocks?

Amazing Way 6: You can produce own major radio show with as little as 1 crew - yourself.

Amazing Way 7: You can collect more trash without anyone seeing your collection. Now let's take a look at your 3 Gig thumb drive.

Amazing Way 8: You can "read" while driving - I meant listen to audiobooks downloaded from the Net.

Amazing Way 9: You can avoid manipulative talent managers coz you can head straight to stardom via youtube or myspace.


Amazing Way 10: Now there's hope for high touch in the world of hi tech. Should make us take preserving traditional culture seriously before we lose it.
