how did the Internet change reading?

The Internet has changed many things in recent years, not only our preferences when
reading, the first thing that the Internet has changed has been our habits and the time
in which we do each thing, now we want to do everything in a short time that has been
influenced in our perception of habits. We search for instant moments to do and if It's
going in a short time is better, that's how the Internet works, and now is difficult for
people to pull apart one thing from others because everybody is in every place or
everyone is doing things more awesome that we and that has been affected our time in
reading or doing things can’t necessary is awesome. The internet has changed reading
creating distractions for people on social media or surfing webs and is more and more
difficult with time to get a concentration or be influenced by people who like to read or
spend the time reading, in social media if you like to read is better watch a video that
someone like to read or recommendations but is not reading is the opposite, you are
watching a video for people who read you are not reading, you post photos about
reading but your time is in a social media so the distractions around us have been
growing up in every place. The internet changed a lot of things in our habits when we
read but not only for bad, we can find good opportunities on the Internet to time to read
like more than two thousand books in a specific area or download our favorite books on
our cell phone or have audiobooks as an alternative. Thanks to the Internet many
authors can promote your work on social media and we can find them authors or follows
your work in real-time and that's how the internet changed our perception of reading.
Even with all the distractions, people have more reading options than before, simply
reading is a habit that is cultivated, learned, and enjoyed over time even when things
change drastically
