It is not easy to say when the newspaper or print media have been invented. Already the Egyptians of for example Julius Caesar caved messages of high importance into stone if they wanted to publish news. But more than thousand years later printing of paper was invented and this made the newspaper as we know it today possible. But these daysagain the technological advances and the invention of computers and internet have some influence on the global landscape of print media.

These days again the landscape of print media is about to change drastically. This is again caused by the technological development of the internet. As printing on paper takes a smaller amount of time than caving into stone, uploading something to the net is faster than printing. Almost all modern newspapers offer news online, although the information available online might be slightly limited in comparison with what can be read in the normal newspapers.

But of course not only old newspapers offers services online, but also new newspapers form that you can sometimes only read online. One example for this is www.lets-find-out.com. Dozens of web pages offering information can more or less be counted as newspaper or magazine.

One must not ignore that there are many problems because of this rapid development. The amount of information offered online is so big that one might get lost in this mess of high and low quality of news. Huge amounts of spam are circulating and often information or articles are so much covered by ads that one gets disturbed if one just wants to read something.

Thus the good old newspaper made of paper still has some advantages. But on the other hand if one gets some ideas about where high quality information and media contents are stored, the internet offers getting information with an unbeatable speed. Another new development are also e-readers that make reading electronically stored media more comfortable and offer a reading display that basically looks like a real page of a book or newspaper.

Thanks a lot for reading this post. Since I am also fascinated by the possibilities the internet gives, I am working myself on an online newspaper that you can visit on www.lets-find-out.com.
