Internet: affecting lives, at work, rest and play

Tweet

I'm interested in knowing how the Internet has played a role in your life. Has the Internet changed the way you are entertained? Does the Internet have more of a role in your household than games consoles or TVs? Has the Internet changed your reading or studying habits? For me, the Internet has changed the way I look for information. I always use search engines to, for example, look up phone numbers for taxis, plumbers, etc when I used to use the phone book. As a student, the Internet hasn't replaced my use of books and journals but it has certainly increased my scope of research opportunities. The Internet has also changed my entertainment habits. I used to watch TV for a few hours a week, but I hardly ever watch TV programs anymore. The Internet has offered me a more diverse, interactive entertainment and educational environment that is fun, innovative, interactive and extremely useful!
