Summary:

South Korea has been claim to have the fastest internet connection.  The Koreans has the fastest connection leaving Honking number 2 and Japan number 3. The gigabit internet will be the future technology for faster connection. The advantage of this is to manipulate videogames or tv online.

Relevance to class:

This article is related to the class because the internet is improving to the benefit of the user. The user is important while using the internet. They must feel comfortable and understand it. If the internet takes to long to load, the user might lose his or her patience.

Quote:

"By the end of 2012, South Korea intends to connect every home in the country to the Internet at one gigabit per second. That would be a tenfold increase from the already blazing national standard and more than 200 times as fast as the average household setup in the United States," is the quote I choose for my review. This quote shows that the future of the internet will be very fast and smooth for the users.
