The Web Is Dead.

Wired Magazine may be my favorite print media right now. In a recent issue, Chris Anderson wrote an article titled "The Web Is Dead."
After reading the story, I really started to think about it. In this age of technology the web is taken for granted. Being able to open a browser and surf around is considered old news. Over the last few years the integration of single-platform apps have taken a strong foot-hold in our daily lives.
Anderson says " You wake up and check your email on your bedside iPad — that’s one app. During breakfast you browse Facebook, Twitter, and The New York Times — three more apps...You’ve spent the day on the Internet — but not on the Web. And you are not alone."

If this is a change that will keep occurring, I wonder how the internet will be in 5 more years.

I agree, people say the web is dead because they are so used to using the internet daily.
