internet
Has the internet changed our way to socialize? I would think so, seeing that we have switched off between multiple ways to stay in touch with our friends online. I remember the first web trend was "xanga". Then myspace came, it got a little weird, so then everyone got facebook. I think the internet is a way to stay close to friends that you don't know that well. I hardly ever talk online to the people that I see all the time. We spend so much time on the internet that it isn't just hurting our way to socialize, it's hurting our hobby-time. People are spending less time on what they love to do because they are on the web. I think we should work on limiting our time on the computer. Maybe have a little alarm on the corner of the desktop reminding us to go outside and play.

oh dear I hope you are not attacking my class in this post!
I agree with that fact that th internet is taking over in terms of talking with close friends just like texting has overpowered talking on the phone. The fact that we are all on the internet all the time makes it where we can get in contact with people quick and easy so in that aspect it is a good thing.
I totally agree with your post. Especially when you said the internet's a way to keep in touch with more distant friends. My better friends get a phone call, not a facebook message.
