i feel internet is important may be to contact relatives and friends, may to find some information, to do online earnings, to get entertained and watch movies and listen music and for this all things we use internet and it is basically used in life and daily. so it is just like getting addicted to internet and i feel that it plays a quite important role in life and internet is highly important for us. do you use the internet for all these purpose only or more than that or for other purposes, please do share your thoughts on my discussion and thanks to stop by and reading it?

Yes, I think the internet is very important. Can you believe the world without the internet? Like you mentioned, on the internet, you can watch movies, and listen to music, check your emails, find local or nationwide news. Many, many things you can do on the internet.

yes most of us have a great usage of internet and we just cant imagine life without internet as we most of them do some other thing and use computer in different ways as termed above. may be there are people who dont use internet but most of us do and we just cant survive without it and hope the technology increase more and more and help humanity.

The Internet is unquestionably important. I feel that it, although a recent technology, is already reliable enough to be used for a wide variety of purposes. The Internet has evolved over the years and improved, and has become an essential part of people's lives today. It's one of those things that we can't imagine life without, a life that people not long before us have lived. I, personally, use the Internet for all the things you've mentioned and perhaps more, but I feel that no matter how useful the Internet may be, developing an addiction is still unhealthy. We should use the technology best we can without becoming completely dependant on it, because there are so many more things we can discover in the real world, where the Internet isn't present. The Internet is important, but, like everything else, it should be used in moderation. ^_^ It's meant to aid our lives, but not lead them.

yes you are right it is good that we use internet in most of the ways to provide us results but it is just one kind of dependness i feel becuase it is not only we use internet in our homes for all the basic purposes but it is used even in industries and companies where most of the production and other jobs run through computers and the world is almost computerised and most of the things depends on computers. it is called addiction or dependentness whatever but is the fact that ccomputer and internet is used worldwide.

I use the internet for all of your reasons plus, living only with cats and dogs who, however much I love them, cannot satisfy my need for intelligent conversation. So one of my reasons for using the internet is to make new friends, find new opportunities and to have some "reasonably" intelligent discussions, like on myLot for example. Thanks for the question, very good.

I think that the Internet is absolutely essential! I just don't know how I would live without it! I have come to rely on the Internet now and it's like my very close buddy! It gives me the information I seek, it let's me listen to wonderful music online and it also let's me play games which I still do even though I'm an adult! I hope that the good old net remains around forever, at least I hope that it outlives my life time! Andrew

yes internet help us in many ways to contact our dear ones and help us to cummincate and remember them always and reduce our farness atleast by speaking to them. entertainment is very important in our lives or else the life becomes a bit difficult and boring and internet makes us feel comfortable in entertaining too, may be it is movies or music or games. finding information is important specially for students and who are into jobs and yes the people who stay at home like me also use internet to find information may be it is for studies or for any trips. so in all ways internet is really very important.

The internet is the major resource information and communication pathway that had been very useful to me.I'd been using it in studying especially in my thesis nowadays, doing some research, getting in contact with my families abroad and a good way to find jobs online and earn money.

you are right everytime the person should use the internet for a good and usefull purpose and should not trouble others and cause problems and usually it happens that youngsters use internet for some wrong things and it will spoil their habbits and also create some problems to most of them. and thanks for the reply and response.

Before I thought internet is not really taht important because we have still the existing technology we can utilize. But in this world of speed and high-technological advancement, I believe that the internet is iportant for speed and accuracy od data transmission.

The computer is just a waste of time box. I find it very easy to get side tracked on here. I actually logged on just a few minutes ago to look something up for a friend but instead logged on to myLot.

I think the internet is important for many reasons. It's a learning tool for our young sense we have become such a technology based society. It allows us to get answers to questions from word of mouth where we might not now anyone thats knowlegeable about the subject. It allows us to keep in contact with friends and family all over the world without the outrageous long distance bill.I believe in todays households the internet has become a household necessity. Where else can you get knowledge, entertainment and companionship all wrapped up in one.

Yes internet is very important in the life of a modern person however it should not take over our daily duties, the duty towards our family etc. I think addiction puts things out of perspective and we do lose our goal when we put internet the centre of our life. © ronaldinu 2008

yes i agree what you are trying to convey, yes it is very important to keep our personal life and the fun or online professionalism differently as it may obstruct our lives and may create problems. and i really understand it because when my husband after comming back from his job and browse through internet for a longer time i would get wild and feel lonely and this way may be there are more other people like me. so better to keep the things separately and have joy in lives.

YES! Of course. there's no doubt about how important the internet is. Even older people (like my mom), who are not fond of using the computer, know how advantageous it is to have internet connection. There's just so many things to do on the internet. i think in the future, the TV and many other electronics will be obsolete only because of the power of the internet.

now also internet provides us entertainment and fullfills the need of television but it cant be used as regular for entertainment atleast at this present time may be in future it can happen like how you tell, we never know how technology is going to increase it value day by day, so it is difficult to judge but it is sure the technology improves and find many ways to facilitate people.

in my case internet is more important like contact family abroad with cam to cam and its a cheapest option to communicate friends and family. also very advantage specially if you live in the middle of nowhere.like you can buy stuff online,doing some business online and banking.sometimes we are lazy or too far to go to bank of doing banking but if we have internet we can do it at home without any time limitts.

The internet is very important in today's technology. People now are very high tech. I use the internet for almost anything, for sharing thoughts, interacting with my real life and online buddies, gaming entertainment, and gaining information and news everyday. The internet is everywhere now and now even the smaller islands have it. It connects people and it connects the whole world.
