What would I do without my favorite media source?

My favorite media source is the Internet. I don't use it to get the latest gossip, but I do enjoy receiving emails, having Facebook and Myspace, and being able to look up picture or information with the click of a button. If the Internet were taken away from me, I would more than likely get school work done in a timely fashion, and I would probably watch more TV. I don't let the Internet take me away from personal interaction with people, I enjoy being in the presence of my friends rather than talking to them through a computer and I don't spend hours upon hours doing nothing online. I do, however, use the computer very often for research, for pictures I need to complete presentations, and to keep in touch with friends and family across the U.S. and in Iraq. Although I would enjoy not having the urge to check my email every 30 seconds, if this luxury were taken away from me, I would not know what to do.

It sounds as if the PC enhances your social network adding to the connectivity of your relationships-- even made the world smaller for you which is one of the positives always touted about the internet.

While you're not big into the 'net for research, what about entertainment? Do you read magazines/news online? What about TV shows?

While I have the TV on in the background, I do sometimes here a little tidbit of it that interests me. If I don't catch the full story on the TV, I'll look it up on CNN.com. TV shows and magazines I don't watch or read online; its mostly because I'm too busy to even catch the shows on the TV or read the magazines.
