Pen Pal Letter

Hey Lajon, I am so glad that I got your letter and that I have got the chance to get to know you so well over the past year. The Internet is something that I never would have thought that I needed 20 years ago, but yet now it is something I cannot seem to go a day without using. Imagine knowledge about anything that is just a search engine and click away. Imagine a web site that allowed you to get a glimpse of what your dad’s day to day life is like or any people that you know that do not live in the same town. I keep up with my family through a site called Facebook.
The Internet started with genuine and sincere intentions, but over the years, it has been overrun with meaningless statements. I remember you mentioning that when you go to spend your summers with your father, that the local library there has Internet access. The next time that you go, if you decide to learn about anything, look for web addresses ending in .edu, .org, or .gov to make sure that the information you are looking at is actually based on fact. Also, add me on Facebook! I would love to hear from you more often than just in our letters.
The web addresses that end in .edu are sites that dedicate themselves to current events or issues that surround an educational institution and are closely monitored by the school to maintain credibility. Web sites that end in .org are connected to non-profit organizations and are monitored by them as well. Web sites ending in .gov are connected to and monitored by a specific government organization. All of these can be considered to be credible sites to educate you about a particular subject. Anyone can purchase a web address ending in .com, so if you do find yourself on a site that is not any of the ones I have mentioned, cross reference the information with a site with the addresses ending like the ones I talked about just to make sure the information that is said on the site is real.
You mentioned the term digital divide in your letter and you asked
