INTERNET OF THINGS (QUESTION 3)

Q.3.1 (IIE, 2016: 73,74) The internet of things refers to any device that can be connected to the internet. The internet of things already impact the present in both business and society. Now days in business things like blogs and even tools mainly aimed for personal uses such as Facebook and Twitter are used to make a quick buck. Businesses also recently have started using cloud based companies that offer cloud-based email, web chat and VoIP. This in turn reduces the cost of owning the equipment and maintaining it because essentially the company is merely renting it.  It is also said that social networking tools is extensively becoming a tool for not only business but also politics. More and more people everyday are signing into social media platforms hence more and more people are getting connected to one another .There are also things like wearable technology like smart watches and google glasses. These make peoples lives much more convenient and make the present day extremely technologically advanced.There are many things presently that connect us to the internet the list goes on. In the future the internet of things will only grow drastically even more than what it is today. I believe there will come a day where nobody will go to a store and physically buy items everybody will just buy from the internet. Goods and services will be extremely fast and efficient. People wont have to go to places like school and college, they can just take online classes via  VoIP and chat rooms although many do presently but i believe the number will increase significantly. The internet of things will effect business and communication so drastically in the future that when one will look back at the past we will be shocked at how stoned aged we were. A lot of money and time will be saved in the future because of the internet of things and more revenue will be gained by many businesses.
