Obviously, most of the good habits, if not all, would have taken a backseat I guess. At least, it is the case in my life. I never read a book these days, sit all the time in front of the computer and try to do all things only on the internet. I wonder am I the only one of this kind or so many or around?

Since buying my first computer I have been about the same. At first I did everything on the computer but now I try to pick up a book now and then and read it. I have also gone back to handwriting letters to my family, as my mother said that she enjoyed them more, thought they were more personnal. Everything else is done on the computer though. I don't even go to a library anymore.

It really feels nice to see someone who still writes a letter which has become a rarity these days except for in villages.

After the internet I know I've gained many good friends and made a lot of new ones who I might never have gotten to know without the internet... it'a amazing how the internet connects you to so many people in different parts of the world and you can get a peek into their lives, just sitting at your desk!

Yeah, people gain more friends through internet and that can be the biggest gains of all.
