Publishing on Internet:A Curse or A gift?


Books in Cyberworld:

Actually publishing via internet or in cyberworld ,this virtual world , is a double sided medal,it helps a big category of people and destroy another.To understand more what i'm trying to say ,i would like to discuss the advantages that this procedure offers to the writers and poets and US.
First of all as we all know internet turned the world into a small village,it bacame easier to know what's happening on all the earth just in one click and to have relations worldwild.So to publish on internet help the poet to spread his ideas and poems and stories online faster to all the world.Also it helps to produce more books in a short time without facing the traditional obstacles that publishers put.
In addition this operation makes a kind of contact between readers and writers by their comments and critics so the writer understand their needs and works on his weak points.
Plus,the more the writer sell on internet the more profits he gain without having to share the profit with the publishing industry,no more printing costs,no more shipping costs and no more inventory costs.He's only obliged to pay a small amount of money to the marketing.
Moreover,i think publishing online push a lot of hidden talents to show up and to give their best,especially the poor ones or those who didn't get their life opportunity.
Finally because we live in a world that its rythm is fast,buying books online help us to gain time and don't waste it by going to the library or the bookstore ,we can simply print it at home.Also we can do quick research for a certain topic and jump easily by hyperlinking from an idea to another for a more deep information.
After discussing the advantages i can't neglect the negative effects that online publishing have on Publishing industry and on its workers.I think publishing industries are no doubt going to be dead meat over time.
At the end i just want to say that we are still good at this stage but if the internet is going to replace books in the future that is going to be a major problem and a disaster because books are a fortune and a symbol of immortality.There won't be no pleasure in reading if we can't touch and smell the papers.
