Hi friend, I feel computers are real friends to us.It is helping a lot in gaining the knwldge,earning money through online,knowing things what is happening all round the world.With this only we can even interact with different kind of people too.But it is really waste to the people who misuse them. Ofcourse staying all through the day in front of the computer may effect our eyes too,but if we take corresponding precautions than i think it would be fine.We have to do some exercise too after getting from the computer or sitting before the computer....... Have a nice day............

Depends on the times. Back as a kid, as in your words of "wasting time" we jumped rope, did skip-tape, hopscotch, rode bikes, skateboards, skates, and then went inside and played board game after board games. My daughters years - TGIF on Fridays, series books to read, "just hanging out" on patio steps or walking to friends house or taking on phone (they had cords back then so the kid had to stay in the house!) and video games My grand daughters time now... game boy, wii, electronic this and that and cell phones and computers Which is a waste of time? THe exercise I got all day long, the education and fun reading gave to my daughter, or being able function in the 21st century that my GD is learning.... All depends on how you look at it. Maybe a question could better answer it...if you werent' sitting at your computer X hours a day...what would you be doing? HOpefully something constructive, helpful or at least not out on the streets causing trouble!!!
