The internet has become a one-stop research tool. I search everything that i don't know in the internet, including research works. Internet is an indispensable tool in the modern world. Although it is very important to read books and other reading materials; the internet has become a very convenient place to research.

INternet is important to me and to my kids. Because almost all their assignments need research and we basically find it in the internet. NOt only that i was able to communicate my brothers abroad using internet connection. And this also one of my hobby to play farmville at facebook!

well i think i wouldn't survive without an internet if i am really bored and have nothing to do at home. if i am outside the house, i would probably not need an internet connection - since i wouldn't say that an internet connection is a necessity for me. I'd still prefer a cellular phone. :D

That's very true as today internet has become an important research tool and most of the times, we only opt for using it if we have to find any information related to a particular thing that we know about. For me, it is very important on a day-to-day basis, as I have to check my mails regularly which requires internet. Also, for my project work, I need to do a lot of research and to check what's on t.v. also, sometimes, I browse through the internet. So, it helps us in many ways and also faster than other means!!

I have 3 young children and with the internet it has been quite easy to get informations for their school work and projects. In schools the teachers even use the internet to teach nowadays. The schools even practised e-learning from home. They do this once every quarterly of the school term. The students are to study from home doing online homeworks and assignments which the teachers have prepared for them. This is to prepare the students to study online from home in case of emergencies where they are not allowed to go to school for safety precautions against diseases like SARS, H1N1 and so son.
Anyway, I still ecourage my kids to read books. These are essentials and important too.

Hello,
When I first had my connection, it only served as a way to chat and stay connected with friends. But I've come a long way from that now. Many days have passed and my requirements changed. I now do research on my internet. Also I have a blog to help engineering students who have problems understanding fundamental technical terms. I've also made a motivational blog. Though all my money making ventures through internet were total failures, I still haven't given that up. I've now become a heavy internet user indeed.
Thanks for starting such a nice discussion
Take care
God bless you

The Internet is very important to me in my life nowadays. I have it it to stay in contact with friends, look up details of things in everyday life and to go on interesting sites like wonderful My Lot. I can visit my local library and borrow books. On the Internet I can find information really quickly. If I want to find out the answer the Internet can usually help me.
When I was at university I didn't like computers and I didn't know how to use the Internet. When I began my first teaching post the head teacher wished me to improve my computer skills. I got a half price computer in a deal for teachers. I am so delighted that I developed the knowledge of computers, laptops and the Internet.
For pleasure and or for work the Internet is a delight.

The internet has made life easier for applicant to apply online and sending applications/resumes via email. In the past, you have to either apply personally or send hardcopies via post offices and would cost you from paper, stamp and transportation cost aside from queing applicants vying for the same position. If you were qualified or shortlisted then you are able to go there.
