Internet is a very powerful tool making us all have easy access to people and information. But in some ways had bad effect to minors who access bad sites in the internet. I had been surfing for more 10 years now and had gained so much friends, information for my personal research and work-related. On your part, what is the effect of internet to your life?

I am also an internet user for more than 10 years now. What is good for internet is that if you want to research on something then you just have to type on the search bar then there you can choose what is related to what you are looking for unlike doing the manual thing wherein you have to go and search for the book either from the library or maybe from the bookstore. Communicating to friends is also easy and it is like talking to her face to face rather than the usual thing. Internet is helpful in many ways and it will depend on the users if he wants to abuse it or not.

I have been surfind since I was 13 and i'm almost 21 now. :S I used to be a bad kid when I was younger on the internet.. trying to pretend like I was older. I met a guy I was in love with he was from london. I even called him. We are still friends, although no longer lovers. He met someone and I got real depresed for a while, had to take Prozac even. Internet made me grow up a lot faster I think. I mostly talked to adults and I think it helped me mature quicker than my friends. I like the internet.
