As computing power increases, internet connections get faster and a more and more net-savvy user base emerges, the internet is growing and expanding in ways that a few years ago would have seemed impossible. Recent developments include Web 2.0 social networking, the emergence of on-demand multimedia, and software developments that put a sophisticated online presence within the reach of non-technical everyday users.
