Reading Rainbow and the future of the internet

I think that it would be good to bring Reading Rainbow on the air. I see no harm in it and it's an educational program. Bringing this show on the internet is probably the best decision that could be made for the show. I feel like more people are online nowadays than people watching TV, so going where the most people are is definitely a good thing. Also, the internet makes content like this more accessible than TV. Someone could get online anytime of the day and have their kid watch Reading Rainbow, rather than waiting for the time spot that the show is scheduled to air on TV. I think that the internet is definitely a tool for the future, in being that everything is making the transition to being online. There is online banking now, online TV, online jobs, etc, etc. The possibilities are almost infinite and I think that there is no end point. I think that we can keep going and continue to use the internet for just about everything that we can think of. Making anything more accessible to the public is always a good thing, and that's exactly what the internet will do for us. Make things way more accessible.
