I mainline Interner man. It's like the biggest hit you can get

Quite frankly though I'm online to chat to the great friends I've met

And talk about stuff that I'm interested in. don't see what's the harm tbh

Probably guilty. If im home my computer HAS to be on.

They mentioned this on the radio last week and my Dad said it was me

Innocent until proven guilty

Its the opportunity to learn that attracts me. Its only human to want to learn, its why the human race is what it is

Bah, this was in the newspaper a few weeks ago and my parents bugged me until I read the article

same, wouldn't say i was a addict but if I'm in the house 99.9% of the time my computer is on, mainly because all my music is on here.

You can learn so much stuff from a computer about anything, it's a great learning tool, where's the harm being adddicted to a learning tool.

you can even learn things from pron!!!!!!!!

Think the harm is at the moment that since the `net has become mainstream, it`s not as pure-information based as it used to be. There`s alot of opinion based news, versions of events and far far too much nonsense.

Blogs are the recent spawn of Satan, including fake blogs.

Alot more censored to what it used to be too, and I don`t mean the pron.

Solitaire perhaps Nah, I must admit I use the net as both a source of information and a vehicle for social interaction with those I deem as close friends (distance is no longer an obstacle for catching up)

I'm addicted to computers and the internet. I don't think it's that bad considering all i'm doing is taking advantage of one of the coolest and best tools available to me. I enjoy almost everything about computers so I chose to surround myself with them.
