Are you?

I was actually online doing some reading into autism and googled up Autism and computer usage when I came across these articles. Not quite on Autism but on the internet addict. This got me thinking.. there are many of us who are information gatherers who find pleasure in 'surfing' the net, reading up on this and that.. there is always something out there that we can use the computer and the internet for. However, do what extend do we do this? Have you asked yourself how much time you spend in front of the PC and online?







Just some thoughts to ponder upon.

1) We know the net is wonderful in that there is so much we can do and accomplish there. From communications to information and even 'social communications' per se. However, what effect is this having on our lives and the lives of those around us?

2) Has the internet made our world smaller or actually made us more distant from each other?

3) Can we now live without the WWW if we wanted to?
