So many things have been said about the importance of internet to the whole wide world. But what I wanna know here is to each and everyone who reads this post of mine. May I know what is the importance of internet in your lives? For me, it serves its purposes well. Through it I am able to communicate with my love ones who lives away from us. It gives me another avenue to find extra money. It teaches me things I don't normally learn from school. It widen my horizon when it comes to happenings around the world. Will you share your own?

It hasn't helped me financially too much. I have alwyays loved music. I do a lot of listening to music and In can hear songs I've havn't heard in years. And of course, it sounds much better thann the 45s I have or never did buy.(for those of you who know what a 45 is.) You tube also gives me the opportunity to watch videos I haven't seen since the days when MTV actually played videos.

Hey, Well if I wouldn't have the Internet, my life would be actually quite boring. Also, I don't really have any true friends that I can actually tell secrets too or anything like that, because they aren't true friends, so I also like to chat with online friends. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Well, for me, internet as of today, its role is very crucial..since, technology is as its peak, internet is best option for researches, which is one of its features, access to different research websites, is helps us to communicate with our loved ones who are far from us, it really bridge the gap of distance between people..Then, we are able to enjoy things that we haven't experience through internet, like chatting, then like this, being compensated through our little way of responding to topics..Indeed, it makes our life easy..

as of now, not only i can talk to my relatives all over the world using the internet, this has become my source of income also. gone are the days where we can only do researching and learning in internet. today i consider internet very important to me, without it i would not have been able to have an income especially now that jobs are hard to find, and we are in real financial crisis. with internet, some of my financial worries have been met.

The internet first starting becoming important because I was going to school and tht is how I would do quizzes, tests, and kept in touch with my instructors. After graduating I have a few things through the internet to make money so it has became more important. My family and friends live rather close so I do not have to use e-mail for these purposes. It is nice to have though if one of my friends would ever move away and I could not reach them.

We are a Military family so the internet is very important to me. It is the one way I can stay connected to my family and my husband when he goes overseas. The difference between writing letters and getting phone calls is the same difference as getting a phone call and being able to talk over webcam. On top of that I take care of banking and bills over the internet.

for me computer has a very significant importance. i am a designer and so most of my work depends on the machine. i am very good with designing and programming and both are done on computer. also i like to play games on computer. then there are other things that i do on computer like watching movies, surfing the net reading a hell lot of articles on different topics for my knowledge. so i think all in all computer has a lot to do with my life and my interest.

Internet helps a lot in communication with long lost friends and relatives. In fact, i had made friends with chatmates. Though i must admit, some of them are sleazy or boring, but it still gives me choices on the people I prefer to chat and get along with. It has opened avenues to knowledge on things that i might have forgotten from school or havent learned from school. With the internet, you are never away from the whats going on and what is in or out.
