Of course you can tell me about the bad changes too... Needless to say that internet has changed my life a lot... I have almost become an internet addict. I have learned many things from internet. I have gained knowledge in many subjects including how to make money on internet. It affects my health as I keep awake late nights every day.

Hi viji Internet did bring several changes in my life too. Now a days I am so addicted to it that I am totally shunning my duties and unable to concentrate on any other matters including my responsibilities. I am awake in the odd hours of the day and in the daytime also I am sitting in front of my computer only. Some times i will skip my meals and sleep and because of this I am developing backpain, severe knee pain, and black circles around eyes and someother health problems. But I gained several friends, knowledge and came to know so many things across the globe.

Dear friend, I could see lots of positive and good sides of internet. Among them some of the main good changes are easy access to knowledge, communications, lessening the gap between two nations or with other people, lot of jobs, so on goes its better side. I hope this facilities would become more cheaper and may free for all people so that many could utilize its better sides.

Hello dear brother, There are good changes in me that this internet has brought into my life. I met some good friends that is the most precious and most important thing that happens in me. I was able to know first hand information regrading races,traditions and cultures from internet friends from far away land. This internet widened my knowledge...and make me a good conversationalists too. It gives me confident to speak the universal language. It also affects my health becoz i stay late night and sometimes even makes me awake the whole evening esp when i enjoy responding here on mylot. Well,it always makes a balance to me...where there is bad...there is also good. And i always look at the good side nah

There are so many, internet helps me to communicate with my friends from different country, I discover Mylot from internet, and it helps me to earn online. Internet also helps me to find other income opportunity online. Internet helps me on searching different things, it helps me on how to do blogging. It helps me to have my online money account e.g Moneybookers and Paypal. It helps me to meet new friends. It helps me updated with the latest about my favorite star. It helps me with fashion, diet, lifestyle, lovelife, friendship and everything about it. It helps me to watch videos i missed on television and those who are not available in my country. Internet also have disadvantage to me, actually being an addict using that is an disadvantage already. And Internet help me to experience scam too.

I use the internet in so many different ways, and I know that my life would have been different without the internet. I found my husband and some very close friends online and that is definately the best thing that the internet has brought me I also found my house, my some of my pets and my job online, and I can say without exaggerating that the internet has had an extremely positive influence on my life. I enjoy communicating with my friends from around the world, and the internet has made things lot easier and faster. I also use the internet to find information about a lot of different topics, and I enjoy earning some extra money online.

I would say that the internet has had nothing but positive changes for me so far. Online earning helps me out to try and get some savings stored. I can research some much easier on here and switch quickly from topic to topic on the internet. I can stay in contact with friends that live a long ways away and I can find some amazing deals on stuff to buy online.

Hi vijayanths, I eat less and use my brains and hands more. LOL. I also have more friends than I can handle, but I am greedy enough to want some more. I have started earning monies without getting too tense about schedules, and interacting with others. I escaped filling in several types of forms - I used to be in home loans segment therefore, I had these forms and documents that needed to be filled, and they can really make me. I dont have any issues with my colleagues and neither do they. . I am not scared of making any mistakes in some crucial conveyance documents. . And I dont have targets that earn my group leader some incentives, so I am at lesser stress. I used to suffer with massive leg pains, they seem to be vanishing. :) I get good night's sleep now!

Ive learned a lot from the internet and i can say that using this is very beneficial to me and others. But the good thing that I learned is how to make money online. The amount that I earned from it is not big but can help in my monthly bills.

Interesting topic! Internet has changed me in both good and bad ways. The good ways are I gain knowledge and I become more and more informed day by day. I learn a lot about various things. The bad things are I become a loner, less socializing thus I have no new friends. Not to mention that I suffered from insomnia too in the past. I think it depends on how you control yourself. Get your self busy with other things, that way you won't be too attached to it. That's what I do.

the internet changed my life by making me lear new things everyday. the internet is what got me hear actualy. the internet is like the heart of someones life. it makes life alot better, well... for me. i odnt know about other people because this is just my opinion. i dont see why people wouldnt like it, i mean what harm is it? well...there may be a little harm by hurting your eyes or getting you adicted to it but it is the answer to most of my questions if i ever have any. if i have any then i just go on the internet its as simple as that. so i'd say it changed my life in a good way and maybee some bad but mostly good

Hi vijayanths, I did not get a computer until after I retired and the Internet opened up a whole new world for me. I fell in love with it very quickly and it became a great hobby for me. I love to write and publish short stories and now I can do this on online. Without it I might have got involved with more volunteer work but I would have missed the joy of writing. I still do some volunteering but we need to get younger people involved today. Blessings.

The good changes the internet has brought to my life: 1.) The opportunity to earn online - on sites like MyLot. I love it! A year ago I just started, and now I feel like a whiz. I think it's so cool that we can do things like this and make some extra money on the side while at home, in front of our computers. Super cool if you ask me, and almost hard to believe! 2.) The opportunity to not have to go to the library to get school assignments researched and typed up. I love having a computer because it makes doing schoolwork that much easier. 3.) Never having to open another phone book in my LIFE! I hate looking through phone books. I can find directions, hours, locations, and pretty much ANY kind of information online. 4.) I can get in touch with friends and family in SO many different ways - facebook, email, AIM chatting, so on and so forth. There are so many more options that are more convenient than calling someone up. Those are all the ones I can think of off the top of my head . Good discussion! It really makes us realize just how lucky we are to have such great technological advances in our daily lives.

There are a few good changes that the internet has given.There are sites that you can get your shopping from so you do not have to go out shopping to get it.There are social sites that you can talk to your friends on if you can not afford to go out.There are sites that you can earn a bit of pocket money on if you are unable to go to work there are also sites you can get money off coupons as well as free gifts.These are the reasons that i come on the internet for.

The internet has definitely helped me in a lot of ways. For example, now it's easier for me to keep in touch with my friends through e-mail or chat with them through a messaging problem like AIM or g-chat. It's easier for me to e able to read the news whenever I want instead of having to buy a newspaper or only being able to watch the news at certain times. It's easier for me to find friends who I've lost touch with, or to find something to do when I'm bored, like play a game or just surf the net.
