Abstract
The web has become an integral part of business, work and general culture. With an amazing pace, it has transformed from being an esoteric computer application used by academics and tech-savvy youth into being an ordinary household tool and important communication vehicle for people of all ages and professions, and its role in modern society only seems to keep growing. Most importantly, the web has shown the capability to change people’s lives.
