Opinion Essay - The Internet Vs. Books?

Subject: Reading books is a waste of time. All the knowledge you need is online. Write an opinion essay.

In today's world more and more people use the Internet. Some of them think that books are obsolete and all the every information you need is on the Internet. I strongly believe that the World Wide Web is more useful than books.

First of all, the Internet is a more comprehensive source of the knowledge. There are billions of subjects about everything. Everybody can find some information for himself. The main advantage of this is that you don't have to use a table of contents and go through the whole book.

Secondly, all the books you need are online. There are existing eBooks and Audio books, which can replace traditional books. For instance, you mustn't don't have to go to a library and check it out, you can just download it at home.
As a result, it's quicker and more comfortable. Moreover, the Internet is supports multimedia formats. A In a book is only a black text on a white paper, while on in the Internet are many animations and pictures, which can help you to remember and understood modern issues.

One argument against using the Internet is that it isn't a reliable source of information. There are a lot of mistakes made by authors users. Books have more plausible (?) issues, which makes them better sources of knowledge.

I don't have the ending, but what do you think about that?

It's a good start.

Personally, I don't think that reading books is a waste of time. I enjoy the stories. I can appreciate the great classics from a long time ago. I belong to a book club where my friends and I discuss books and their ideas. I read books in bed or while flying, A good read puts me to sleep, and makes the hours pass by quickly on a long trip. To me, an eBook is just another kind of book; it is not a web site.
If you can separate truth from fiction and fact from opinion, the Internet is great as a quick reference for information. But it cannot build up your knowledge on a subject as a well-written textbook can.

Thank you for improvement my work. Yes, you're right, but I believe that Internet is more useful. You just use Google and find out whatever you want. But on the other hand, book is a book and it will be always better

Hello,

Internet is better than books. We have to buy or borrow the books in a shop or in a library. But,when we read books from internet, we don't need to borrow,just download it and read it in your computer. It saves time and energy. Moreover,it also saves your money. Therefore, I think internet is better than books.

Great opinion! I enjoyed reading that.

GuGu

but i think internet is much much better because of internet we can have so much of knowledge about are chapters and news whish is running around us for are general knowledge

As opposed to books, internet now has been acclaimed as the best source of information as it provides current updated info. Due to technological advancement, we can share the knowledge easily with anyone at a time we want. So, it is time saving, easily accessible and more affordable.

I grew reading books.(Bestsellers of Ann Rice & Stephen King to be exact.)It would be sad if books were abolish due to World Wide Web.What if your PC crash down,u still need books.Sorry for those tech.guys.Books r still practical than d web. :-p

Internet is much more better than books because paper is being wasted and which is causing deforestation which is playing an important role in the global warming! we can use eBooks and other types of electronic means to get information.we have a vast knowledge on internet. we just need a keyword and the information is there at no time. No time wasted in finding the right book with more information and No energy wasted by going to the library and finding the book..!

Wrong grammar, it should be "improving" instead of "improvement". Maybe that's what you have learned from internet.
