The internet is probably the best invention in history. Whatever you need to know, you can just go online and find it. It has made communication very fast and efficient. It's just sad that people have become dumber even though we have knowledge right on our fingertips.

I think the word is not "dumber" but becoming lazy

I think that the internet is a great help when I study, and I use it a lot. When I went to elementary school and high school there was no internet, and I always had to use the library if I was looking for information about something. I recently started studying again, this time I am able to use the internet, and it makes things a lot easier. If I have to write something about a topic that I don't know much about, I often look for information or inspiration in the internet, and today I would find it hard to study without the internet.

The Internet is extremely useful to me. If I want information on anything, all I need to do is a search and I find what I need. The days of thumbing though books and maybe finding something vaguely resembling to what I wanted to know are long over. I remember the time before the Internet, doing research papers for school. Exactly how I made it though that, I will never know. Plus, all of the entertainment and money making opportunities, there is just so much to do that I will never get bored.

Internet is really useful not to only one profession but to all kinds of profession. You can make a blog, research, entertain yourself by listening to music and watching movies, videos and a lot. You can also get a lot of resources like ebooks, and different applications. You can also learn through. You can learn here what you can't learn in school. You can also be a webmaster on your own. All the resources that you need is in here. It is really useful and yes, I agree to what others have posted about internet, it is indeed the greatest invention ever made.
