Pengertian internet sendiri sebenarnya itu adalah sebuah jaringan komputer. Pertama kali dibentuk oleh Departemen Pertahanan yang berada di Amerika Serikat pada tahun 1969, yang dinamakan ARPANET (Advanced Research Project Agency Network), mereka mendemonstrasikan bagaimana dengan hardware dan software komputer berbasis UNIX bisa berkomunikasi jarak tak terhingga dengan menggunakan saluran telepon. Terancanglah sebuah proyek dalam bentuk jaringan, kehandalan, seberapa besar informasi dapat dipindahkan, sekarang dikenal dengan sebutan TCP/IP.

Awal tujuan dibuatnya proyek tersebut untuk kepentingan dalam militer di Departemen Pertahanan Amerika, yaitu untuk mengatasi masalah bila terjadi serangan nuklir dan menghindarimenghindari terjadinya informasi terpusat, yang apabila terjadi perang dapat mudah dihancurkan.

ARPANET hanya menghubungkan 4 situs saja yaitu Stanford Research Institute, University of California, Santa Barbara dan University of Utah.

Aplikasi New Media

Salah satu contoh dari New Media saat ini adalah Internet.
mengapa internet?
karena dengan hadirnya internet, kita dapat mempermudah berbagai macam urusan.
contohnya dalam urusan hiburan, komunikasi, informasi, transaksi uang, jual beli higga pekerjaanpun kini sudah dapat dilakukan dengan mudah dan singkat dengan menggunakan internet.
Berbeda dengan waktu dulu (tahun jebot, jadul alias jaman dulu) sebelum hadirnya internet,
mereka yang mengalami masa tersebut akan mencari hiburan melalui TV/Radio/Video CD/dll, sedangkan dalam komunikasi mereka menggunakan surat biasa/telepon/dll, untuk transaksi uangpun kini sudah banyak jasa internet banking yang dapat dilakukan untuk mempermudah dalam hal berniaga hingga membayar listrik/telepon/air/pengisian pulsa/dll, untuk urusan jual beli dahulu mereka akan sibuk dipusingi untuk berpergian mencari toko, akan tetapi kini sudah banyak yang mengggunakan sistem toko online yang dapat dilihat melalui internet, dan akhirnya cari uang (penghasilanpun) kini juga dapat menggunakan internet, sungguh berbeda bukan jaman dulu sama dengan jaman sekarang?

Ya itulah internet yang sedang top di kategori New Media,
Mungkinkah suatu saat nanti (masa depan) ada yang lebih hebat daripada internet?
kita nantikan saja.

Contoh kedua dari New Media pada masalah transportasi adalah sebagai berikut:
Jaman dulu alias jadul mereka yang mengalami menggunakan alat transportasi seperti sepeda/kuda/onta/getek/dll.
Akan tetapi sekarang ini (new media) sudah menggunakan mesin (bermotor) untuk melakukan transportasi sehingga perjalananpun lebih cepat bila dibandingkan dengan jaman dulu.

Itulah kendaraan bermotor yang saat ini menduduki New Media dibidang transportasi.
Akankah masa depan nanti ada yang lebih hebat daripada kendaraan bermotor?
Seperti teleport yang ada pada game-game?
mungkin iya, mungkin juga tidak.
kita nantikan saja.

Controversy of Skin Bleaching

        Today, skin bleaching is really controversial and usually people have negative thinking about it. Some people argue about skin bleaching because when someone bleaches their skin, it means that they cannot accept themselves and insult their races. On the other hand, some people said someone who do skin bleaching, have strong reason. That is why we cannot judge them. Usually discrimination becomes the biggest reason why people do it and some people think that white people have higher status than black people. For instance, long time ago in America, black people could not have the same school with white people because white people thought that they had higher status.

In my culture, people more like having white skin, especially for female and mostly parents do not like when their children play outside at noon. Females do many ways which make their skin lighter and they are really scared if their skin darker so they will not go outside when the sun extremely shine.

In my opinion, we should grateful for something which has been given by God. HE always knows the best for us and creates us differently in unique ways. This can make this world be more colourful. I could not imagine if every people had white skin, it will be so boring. Thus, do not see the differences as something wrong but we have to see it as beautiful creation.

Omiai should not be banned

        Once, people heard about “omiai” or the other word we called it as arrange marriage, they will straightly think it is a marriage without love and many fighting inside the marriage and it will affect negative for the family especially their children. Nevertheless, survey show that divorce happen more often in love marriage. People who do arrange married usually get strong support from their parents so if they have problem, they try to solve it with their parents. Therefore, they cannot divorce easily as people who do love marriage because they have responsible not only to their spouse or children but also to their parents. Furthermore, they usually have same backgrounds which reduce fights because as we know fighting mostly comes from many differences from the spouse. Hence, even though many negative thinks about arrange married but we can see from the other side that our parents who arrange our married know the best for us so they absolutely try to find the spouse who compatible with us.

Child part 3

Child is a selfish individual as they have not matured enough to understand the reality in life. Children always assume that adults will never understand them but they do not realize they also never understand adult. For instances,  kids always blame their parents as their parents ask them to do something that they do not like such us take language course and they assume parents do not understand them. However, the fact is parents have more experiences than children, so they want the best for their children in future. To illustrate that, parents can see the picture in one big puzzle, whereas children only see some pieces of puzzle. Therefore, there are lots of misunderstandings between child and adult as they see the world in different way. Furthermore, children always think that they must get what they want without thinking about the other things. For example, we often see children cry in the middle of public place because their parents do not give what they want. From that, it shows us that children do not care whether their parents afford to give what they want or what they want is really important for them, they just think that they want and they must get it. Actually, children are more selfish than adults because they are too young and inexperienced. To sum up, as the children grow up, they will be more altruistic as they understand that they cannot always get what they want.

Child part 2

           Child is the one who has high imagination that sometimes it is hard for adults to understand it. However, parents should support their children by hearing their imagination patiently and giving understanding to them. As the result, it makes children feel more appreciated and they will have confidence to be imaginative children then it will affect their character in the future as well as they will habitually grow to be problem solver, creative thinkers, and innovators. In addition, Angelina Jolie who is the famous mom said “Children should be allowed to express themselves in whatever way they wish without anybody judging them because it is an important part of their growth”. This quotation reminds us that it is very important for children to express their imagination as it will influence their growth. Moreover, children usually have innovative and fantastic imagination which is truly unexpected by adults. In short, imagination is the important part that cannot be separated from children.

Child part 1

Child is a young human who is still innocent. In contrast with adults, it is easier for child to forgive someone. For instances, we can take a look when we were still in childhood, if we fought with our friends, few hours later we already reconciled and played together again. On the other hand, it is really hard for adults to reconcile with people who hurt them; we need long time to forgive other people’s mistake. Furthermore, as child still so young, they do not know how cruel the world outside them, so they always think positively with others. In addition, children have sincerity heart which is already rarely to be found in this world. They help and love others without any intention, whereas most adults usually do favor as they hope they will get praise and honor from others. In brief, child is so naïve who has pure heart to love people around them without any suspicion.

Beradaptasi

            Setiap manusia yang ada di dunia harus dapat atau bisa beradaptasi dengan lingkungan dan bukan lingkungan yang harus beradaptasi dengan manusia tersebut. Bila manusia tidak dapat beradaptasi dengan lingkungannya, maka ia lambat laun akan punah. Dan bila manusia ingin melanjutkan hidupnya maka, ia harus merubah cara – caranya.
