I was surprised how the Internet, how this technology will work in society and people's empowerment.Then one day I was reading a magazine and saw this MSC topic. From my mouth, a word was pronounced 'wao'. I thought it was a positive thinking. How does it happen?When I read the magazine, the time was 1997.
