Artifact 5

I was completely shocked by this pod cast. People that create porn websites were the ones that played a big role in starting online shopping. I was shocked that a few years ago pornography websites were the most popular. Porn sites have gotten more hits that any other website. Even though they say men were the creators of the website, they are not the only ones that watch it. Porn is the creator of social networking websites, such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc. because people began talking. It is also the reason that internet video chatting and video players were popular. Video chatting, such as Skype, has only been popular the past few years, but I am sure some people used that as an opportunity for pornography. People used video players, such as Windows Media, was used on porn sites. It is also a money making business. People link their credit cards to websites where porn is offered because they pay for what they are viewing. This is when people began buying online items such as groceries because their card was safe when they linked it to a porn site, so it would be safe on other sits as well. Chat rooms were popular years ago as well, but private chat rooms were used to distribute porn just like the websites as long as you have a membership. Now that I think about it, I could understand why porn would be the start of online shopping because people have had the urge longer than computers were created.
