Internet is for information from all around the world but I think it is so that officers can talk secretly.

Nissa 12-01-2007 05:23 AM

Porn!


Okay, not really, although it is a nice feature. The internet is entertainment for me most of the time, and a workplace when convention time gets close.

Elemental Cotton 12-01-2007 05:47 AM

Ah, sweet internet.
I use it for avatar sites, chat with friends, MMORPGs (especially Guild Wars :P), looking up random information, sites with funny content, and finally, my last and recently added reason for having internet access, video relay service. :P

Motion 12-01-2007 06:29 AM

Redtube yaaaaaaay.

Mousey 12-01-2007 08:40 AM

The internet is for capitalists. =x Haha, kidding, kind of anyway! (There is a lot of business being done.)

If I'm not mistaken, it was originally designed as a military function (like so many things around the world) to make global communication easier. Gotta love the old stories about "oh the computers took up an entire room!!" from people over 40, fufufu.

The internet was intended to be, and still is, a method of sharing information.

I just use it to entertain myself. And occasionally do homework.

Kalium 12-01-2007 10:54 PM

The internet is for killing time. End of story.
On a more serious note, I heard that internet was made for connecting the supercomputers in the universities around the world to facilitate their researching.

kimu 12-01-2007 10:55 PM

The internet was originally used so the military can have an easier way of recording things and such. It
was kinda an expiriment too, I think.

AND AND. The internet is for porn : )

Lolly 12-01-2007 11:02 PM

Socializing, or a means of entertaining oneself.
Ex. Menewsha.

And originally,for the most part I'd suspect although I'm not very familiar with the internet's history,the internet was created for sharing information and researching.

Sadistix_Love 12-02-2007 12:31 AM

I use it for the chat sites and to get access to free art. XDD;

It was actually originally used for military and bank purposes. ^^ And over time it became cheaper and more affordable as new things were invented. :3 I learned so in business last year. >w<

Teeth 12-02-2007 12:38 AM

PORN! >;D
LOLOL. Jokes.
I think its to connect to people all over the wold and gather/give information.
I use it mostly to watch, and submit videos, and talk to friends, and of course, menewsha. >3<"

P.S. And to neglect homework. o3o"

Masochism 12-02-2007 01:11 AM

I really wnated to break out into Avenue Q there...
I think it was originally created for Higher-Ups to communicate faster.
I use it for Mene, Gaia, IM and Youtube.
xD

Spatterdash 12-02-2007 01:13 AM

The way I heard it, the internet was made so that a computer network could stay operational even if some centres were taken out with nuclear weapons.

But the World Wide Web was created to convey information simply and quickly to people via their computers. And that's what it does. Though I use it for socialising, entertainment, and well, what Avenue Q says it's for.

Wynna 12-02-2007 04:49 AM

The internet is for porn! Avenue Q.

-Wasn't the internet originally formed by the launch of SPUTNIK?

I think that the internet is a way for people to easily access information and people.

butterscotch 12-02-2007 04:52 AM

I use the internet forr... avatar sites, LiveJournal, email/im, and uh... my life?

Tre Le Coco 12-02-2007 04:55 AM

Coco you're wrong the Internet isn't for watching videos on Youtube, it's for watching videos on Redtube.

Ahem. Well, maybe. Right now, the internet is for keeping this web designer in a job. :)

I like online communities as well...like Menewsha and Gaia...and I'm a fan of DeviantArt as well (I do a lot of photography on the side)...and I love Wikipedia. <3 I get stuck on that site for hours...

juniper_silver 12-03-2007 03:18 AM

I use the internet for entertainment. Also, when I want a general explanation for something I'll look it up online. I have an online class too, which is way better than going to actual class.

life in red and black 12-29-2007 12:09 AM

  • Online forums to find friends and to entertain myself with new random knowledge that I find on boards.

    MMORPGs because I love carrying a sword and having power and strength, and I meet friends that way.

    Online webcomics and manga page views - because I would go broke buying all the mangas I want to read

    Roleplaying - it's nice to pretend to be someone else.

    Virtual classes to take electives because I'm jam packed in academics in school

    Music online - I discover new bands, and new tracks from my favorite artists.

    Hw - researching online is easier than through books

    Iming - to catch when my friends are online and chatting

suppi 12-29-2007 12:58 AM

Let's see... I first started using it YEARS ago to go on Neopets. xD (I quit, of course)
I mainly use it to do reports on stuff, find random information, listen to music, read manga, watch anime, Menewsha, ect.. xDD
Internet is my life, so I don't know what I'd do if it disappeared.. ><

Faye 12-29-2007 01:00 AM

No one really uses the internet is intended for.

But, I think it was made to connect with people across the country and world.

aimi sakuko 12-29-2007 01:05 AM

i use it to play games, chat with friends when they've no credit phone XD
i havent really thought about what its supposed to be used for..
