I read this somewhere: a boy admitted that the internet has made drastic changes in his life... he thought that well, if this has happened a long time ago, he would have been able to use the internet to get back at the bullies who treated him badly... like say, he is able to fight back through posts anonimously... if he fought back will he is being bullied, he would have lost his leg, or his arm. hehe
well, what about you? do you think the internet is able to change your life, or is it just part of our day to day life now that we do not see any difference at all?

Yeah, internet has changed my life totally. And I have just posted a discussion about how monotonous my life is without the connection of internet a while ago. I have learned a lot new knowledge and latest info surfing net frequently. It makes many of my daily routine easier. Nowadays it's so easy and convenient to keep close contact with my loved ones as well as all the friends. We could do our investment via internet as well.
With the convenience of internet I can read latest news and watch my favorite movies and tv programs whenever and wherever I'm. I'm no longer restricted sitting in front of the tv or sitting on the sofa watching and reading them And I can interact with people in common topics from distant region like what I'm doing currently
Happy posting

My family life has almost vanished. Whenever I get any spare time, I work with my computer.

The internet has changed my life hugely. When I started to use internet, at that time the internet was not so popular and not many people knew how to use it. So I got a job easily because I knew something advanced. And the internet makes everything much more convenient. I can make friends all over the world. The communication cost will be low since we can take advantage of the email and online chatting software. I can just sit in front of the computer and buy anything I like via the net. I can also deal with my online banking and I don't have to go to the bank in person. I can search any information easily in a minute.
I love China

It definitely change quite a bit for me, at least i am more aware of things and events happening around the world which i may not be able to access easily through internet in my early age. It make me more humble and a better person whenever i get to learn more from online educational sites. It did change me in a small as well as a big way, so far so good.

It certainly has in leaps and bounds. My interaction with real friends and people has reduced a great deal. I would rather sit at home and surf the net than go visiting. I have gained tremendous knowledge about so many subjects, specially knowledge about diseases and cure. I have pets and I get to read so much about how to care for pets.I search for recipes and a whole lot of other information. It is limitless. Internet here I come!

Internet changes all our lives. Think about dictatorship, the first thing they black out is internet. It allows us to share informations and to keep news about everything.
In my case semplify a lot of thing. I can buy almost everything by using internet, I can have informations for free or without I need to ask by phone. I can see maps of the cities, informations, photos, videos. I can talk and chat for free with friends and to meet other people. And at last I can earn some extra money for a very little effort.
Definitely internet changed my life!
