When I was in college, I was still internet-illiterate and didn't even have my own email. that was two years ago. being an english majir, i had to do anawful lot of book reports and so i had to read novel after novel and spend hours making a good composition. however, everybody else in my class had just copied and pasted stuff from the internet and hey, they got better grades!
when i had a homework back then i prefer to go to the library to do my research while everybody else would just type and click. i think the old ways of research and studying have now disappeared because internet offers easy solutions to eveything. and it also taught a lot of students laziness.
Quoting Bill Gates, referring to his children: "Yes, they will have computers, but they will have books first." I think that's still the best.

That is very true. I am a poor victim of the internet then I guess! I blame the internet %100 for my lazyness lol :p . It has made many things too easy, but then I will never know if I would have done it properly with out the internet, I might have just failed everything lol!
