Time Management and the Internets

I remember when I didn't have an internet connection. My computer seemed so uninteresting. It did productive tasks like word processing and solving difficult math problems. Times have changed, now my computer is 20 times faster and I don't do anything except extremely important and interesting things like surf the web. The internet, it seems, is a mixed bag. The world has access to more information than ever before but it doesn't seem to have made us any better as a people. When I look around in my classes I see people harnessing the power of the internet to explore the world around them! I mean to play flash games... Can we use our time more wisely? Can we use these new tools to become a better people? I don't know, but I'm going to go spend some quality time with my wife.

  2. Tyler, a blogger? You should setup a doctors appointment because I believe you may be developing a uterus!

    By the way, this is Daniel ... I have no uterus so I have to use Alicia's account to give you this insightful comment

  4. Hahaha yeah Daniel does have a condition :) I'm blogging for a CS class assignment. I might stop after the class is over. I kind of like it, but it takes quite a bit of effort to not sound like an idiot or have a blog about my day or whatever.

  5. The internet has been a great boon for me. Never before have I found such a convenient way to avoid what I don't want to do. My procrastination is at the peak of efficiency.
