What modern invention has had as great of an effect on the spread of knowledge in our society as the printing press did on Renaissance society? Why?

The printing press was a big hit in the renaissance society because it helped them make books. The reason they came up with the printing press was because back then it would take a long time to make a book. If you wanted to write a book and sell it, it would probably take you a year to finish the whole thing because back then you had a pen from a chicken or bird and some ink. So they came up with the printing press so every time they would make a book all they had to do was take it to the printing press and make copies of it. Then they would send the books out to different place so people could buy them. Also when they came up with the printing press books got a lot cheaper for everyone to afford. So people started to read and got smarter.

Now a day, the Internet is what exist to us. We use the Internet for a lot of stuff. For example one thing we use the Internet for is to send out emails to people around the world so we can talk to them instantly instead of waiting a month for a letter to arrive. Another thing we use the Internet is for a lot of stuff. Another thing is that with the Internet we can ship orders out and receive. We can also use it to like buy airplane tickets. Back then you had to wait along time to get a letter, now with the Internet all you have to do is make an email account and it is sent electronically.
