I'm having mixed feelings about the internet these days.

Well, kieffer posted something and then I was like 'yeah I think I totally know what you are saying there' and the rest is just a thread that has gone on, based, presumably, on the guilt/shame felt by some people on using the internet and some other people saying 'the internet is a legitimate venue for love'.
I think the part of the first post that resonated the most with me was about common interests not being everything. I am glad there are people here who like things I like, but while at one point I figured that'd solve all my problems I have realized it hasn't. I am devaluing everything in my head.
I am personally unhappy and getting unhappier right now in my life but I am hoping summer sun will fix/help that.

I thought it was funny last night when almost as an answer to this thread the entire site went down. At first I was panicking a little, refreshing every so often to see what happened, but eventually I excepted it. I started going through all the little things I had bookmarked for later, finally having the time to get to them.
At best I would say the internet is a time waster. As Spluff said, "The internet is my very own personal procrastination machine." I need a few hours to kill before I go to bed, so instead of doing anything really productive I am here. It's something I can do without having to put much thought into it, something I can do to relax. I don't say I need it and it doesn't need me either.

To me the internet is mostly a source of information and media, and that pretty much all I use it for. I use it to read the news, watch media, and general source of knowledge and entertainment, but my eyes get tired quickly. I never understood people using it as a social crutch because I can't imagine sitting in front of a screen for hours at a time.
