1. It is easier to do research
Before electronic means of gathering information, students or
researchers need to pay a visit to libraries to access materials relevant to
their research topics. Nowadays, it will take just a subscription to a journal
online or just browsing online to search for literature required to develop
one’s conceptual framework. Preparing the review of
literature is easier and faster. Thus, more research gets published and
knowledge generation is greatly facilitated.
2. Communication with family, friends and relatives is faster
Gone are the homesick days because a son or daughter can now easily
contact their parents online. Services such as that of Skype and Gmail enable a
loved one to communicate with another in almost any part of the globe where
internet services are available.
3. There is a great possibility to earn while working from home
It is now possible to earn online through writing, filling up forms, or
even just clicking away on advertisements in the internet. Information is a
valuable thing that people are willing to pay. Through advertisements posted
online, manufacturers and sellers are able to increase the possibility of
having their products purchased.
4. Faster business transactions and cheaper products
Sellers and buyers can now transact through online paying facilities
like Paypal or credit cards. Buyers can surf online and select the products
they want to buy. There is no need to have a physical store to maintain as the
products can be shipped directly from the factory.
5. Savings on travel cost
Through the use of the internet, it is possible for executives or
business managers to do teleconferencing. They do not need to meet physically
just to discuss matters. This could save a lot on travel cost.
