Has Internet caused more harm than good???

Some say that Internet has caused more harm than good. I do not agree with that. In fact, Internet has a huge amount of infomation, documents and others resources, aolong with various others services including e-mail, file sharing and online gaming.

Nowaday, milions of people access the internet to find infomationfor their project, theri work, job, knowlege or just simply to entertain themselves. it's much faster and convienence to search in google, click to a website than go to a library or a bookstore just for some informations. And you also can find a large amount of information within a short period of time.

the internet has made possible new form of interaction. People from all around the world can easily cantact with each others just in a second by usding chatting programmes like Y!M chat, window live, ... or they can use voice chats, one applications of these prommes, so thjat they can save money as the cost for oversea call is very high. Social networking Web sites like Myspace and Facebook many others like them also put and keep people in contact for their enjoyment.

Game online such as GameSpy and MPlayer which atract people of all ages to spend their freetime in the internet.

email are more and more impotant today as it convinence and can de sent very fast to the recivers compare to write and send a letter by normal ways. And it may travel and be stored unencrypted on many other networks and machines out of both the sender's and the recipient's control.

The inter has also sub sequenttly revolutionised shopping. for example, a person can order a CD online and recive it in a mail within a couple of days or download it directly in some cases.

however, beside all the advantages, internet also has some disadvantages. There are alot of websites which contain not good information. And when you download something, it may be paid and unpaid so some of the resources may be copyright. Online-gaming takes a lot of time of the gamers, especially the youth, who are students. they like to play game, they love and play it everyday, and forget all about their study or even eating or drinking. and playing too much game would make the body lacks of energy and less intelligent. Purchase online may be not a good ways to shop. Some wedsites may cheat the customers' money without given them their product or product with bad quantities.

The internet is a good place to go if you know how to modify information there and make use of it in a good way for your own benefits.
