Since the mid 1900s television has been welcomed into the homes of people across the globe.  Television immediately took over the scene with its new technology of sound and picture.  Soon after it put radio in its place which was for music and talk.  Now we have a new technology that is continuing to sweep the nation with new discoveries that seem to make everything so convenient with the world right at your fingertips better known as the internet.  The internet is changing the television industry dramatically, due to the fact that T.V. stations have to come up with more and more creative ways to keep up with this wonderful technology.  The outcome of this competition is clearly inevitable with the internet being on top.  So, “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” and that is exactly what they did.  The convergence between internet and television has been and will continue to be a big success.  Just think, your favorite T.V. shows, from reality to talk shows, available to you at any time you’re ready to watch which increases the ratings for the television shows.  One of my personal favorites, along with everyone else on Earth, is Family Guy and it is absolutely refreshing to know that I can watch it anytime I want not just when it’s convenient to air on certain stations.  Not only can I watch episodes but I can also watch deleted scenes and get more information about my favorite characters.  Wow, how awesome is that!
