How Did the ‘Invention of the Internet’ Change Human Communication?

The internet turned talking into something super fast and magical, like having a whole world inside your pocket.

Before the internet, people had to write letters or wait for phone calls. It was like sending a message on a paper airplane, it could take days or even weeks to reach someone. But with the internet, messages can zoom across the globe in seconds, like magic!
