Is The Internet Ruining Our Lives?

There is no easy answer to whether or not the internet is actually ruining the lives of people today. However, we can clearly observe the effects it is having on certain aspects of our everyday interactions and routines. For instance, we can see a trend of people who are spending hours upon hours on social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook instead of being outside or making friends in real life. So in that respect, the internet has definitely caused some decay in our social skills. On the other hand, it allows us to access information much quicker and more efficiently than previously imagined, as well as contributes to increased literacy rates among children so there are some real valuable benefits to be had and that is why there is no easy answer and you must judge for yourself.
