Really, it is strange to hear that. Me too. I thought that Nobel prizes were only given to people. Strangely, the Internet was nominated for that. It is the first non-human to receive this honor. I saw from my childhood whenever it was time for a debate; the topics that come first in our minds (in India) are “Arranged Marriage Vs. Love Marriage”, “Internet – Boon or Curse”. We are still deciding whether the internet is a boon or a curse. But the Internet proved that it is a basic requirement and can change the human DNA. I would feel happy to nominate the Internet for world peace. There are also controversies that the internet also promotes destruction along with peace. I think the usage of the internet is in our hands, rather than blaming the internet for promoting destruction. I can say one thing for certain is that it strongly revolutionized the planet and helped billions. I am also eagerly waiting for the results. Last year it was given to Barrack Obama "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples." Add Comment | Scribblings
