How has the internet changed your life?
How have computers changed your life?
What would life be like without either or both?

The internet has been instrumental in my life. I use it to keep in touch with friends, I use it to do research for classes, and I use it for online classes. I'm not big on talking on the phone so being able to keep in touch with friends without that is quite convienient. I also can show pictures to my friends without having to go to the store and pay to develop them. It's nice to have access to information without having to break open an encyclopedia. The internet has made being a good friend and explanding my intelligence much easier!

Computers offer an escape from boredom through computer games! I'm always on the computer using the internet, playing Solitaire, or writing papers. They have definately made life easier.

Without the internet and computers, my life would be much more complicated. I would have to hand-write papers or use a type-writer, neither of which I have much patience for. I would have to talk to friends on the phone or go see them, or I might risk losing people! I would have to develop pictures, and wait for my bank statements to come in the mail. I know that would cause me to overdraw more than I do with online statements. To keep in touch with friends that may bo out of town I would have to write letters as opposed to emails. I think computers and internet have made life much easier for people, and without them I am not sure people would fare as well as they did before computers were around.
