2. Estimate about how much time are you spending online each week.
3. Do you think the growth of the web will ultimately lead to a "better world" (i.e. more peaceful, safer, less poverty, more freedoms)? In other words, as we all become more connected in the virtual world, will that cause transformations in the real world?

I don't really spend a lot of time on the web, but when I do go online I spend most of my time checking my e-mail or on Dictionary.com. But no, I do NOT think that the web can lead to a better world. Even now, we see things like fraud and cyber bulling on the web, with the advancement of said web these things can only get worse.
ReplyDeleteThe web will not make the world a better place.
Pople will make the world a better place--if they truly wanted to.

ReplyDeleteI have a love-hate relationship with Facebook.com. Its very time consuming, and it contributes to a lot of time online. I think I spend about 2 hours online everyday.
ReplyDeleteThe growth of the internet is leading a blending of cultures. I have friends that talk to people in other countries and states, and I think that this will just continue to grow with the internet.

3. I dont think it will make the world a better place but it does make life easier.
~Fatma Osman
1) My favorite website is Facebook. It allows me to maintain social connections while still using good time management skills. I can do my homework and chat at the same time, unlike being on the phone or talking to someone in person.
ReplyDelete2) I spend quite a bit of time online each week. I would say I average between an hour and two hours a day.
3) I think that the Internet definitely has potential to better tolerance throughout the world. By being able to directly talk to different kinds of people and see different things, people may experience first hand the interconnected web of life and understand that we genuinely are all human and therefore equal.

myspace an easyer way to talk to friends
ReplyDelete1 hour a week i don't spend to much time online
yes
1. The websites I use most are Facebook, and youtube. Facebook [being better than myspace] is mainly what I use to talk to friends when I don't want to talk to them on the phone. And youtube is my television.
ReplyDelete2. 20 hours a week. Mostly the weekends.
3. I think the web will ultimately lead to a better world. Like cars and airplanes, it will keep the world connected. Which could in turn lower poverty, and increase productivity of international business.
-Brendon Murthum
I dont really spend much time on the internet but when i do i usually go to facebook, youtube, and playlist. I go on facebook and youtube to waste time. PLaylist to listen to music. And i dont really know if the internet will make a better world or not.
ReplyDelete-Don Swathwood
1)when i get on the web i usually use google, facebook and yahoo. google for looking up information for homework or things im interested in knowing, facebook to talk to family and friends and yahoo to check my email.
ReplyDelete2)im on the internet a lot during the week.
3)i do think that with everyone getting more familiar with the internet or web will make changes in the real world. thats because with the web you can learn thiings you read about, get familiar with people you may not have known before. i dont really think it will make the world a better place but it will change some things in the world. less people will be out getting into trouble and other things because they'll be on the internet. plus the internet makes things a lot simpler you dont have to read threw books to find out something you can just look it up on the internet and find it a lot faster.

-aNGELO lOPEZ
When ever I spend time online most of the time i go to Youtube and to chat with some friends. And i dont really think that the web would make the world a better place because you see frauds and stuff all the time.
ReplyDelete1. Facebook. Tetrisfriends. Youtube.
ReplyDelete2. About 168 Hours a week. More or less.
3. Yes, Filesharing will let us watch cat videos from all over the world.
1. Some of my favorite sites on the web are Facebook,yahoo,Myspace and google.All of these because they provide me with information that may be important for research,or connect me with people whom I haven't communicated with in a long time.
ReplyDelete2. I probably spend about 18-20 hours a week on the internet.
3.No the internet may connect us more around the world, but we as the people have to make the change of world peace... ourselves and not depend on technology to be our main source.
~Richada Brown~
1. I really don't spend much time on the internet, but when i do get on, i pretty much just google things, myspace, facebook, things like that.
ReplyDelete2. To estimate about how much time i spend on the internet each week, ummm i would have to say about 2 hours every other day. so about 6-8 hours a week.
3. I think the more the internet and technology will grow. ALOT!
1.Some of my favorite websites are Facebook, OMGPOP, Youtube and Google because Facebook allows me to chat with my friends, OMGPOP has some awesome games that i play when i get bored,Youtube you can find some hilarious videos and google is a really quick weay to search stuff.
ReplyDelete2.I spend approxamitly 20 hours online.
3.I think the internet will lead to a better world, because of people out on the street selling drugs they'll be doing whatever they like on the internet.
I really dont spend alot of time on the web... but when i do i just check my email...i also just check my edline...i dont belive that the growth will make this world a more peaceful
ReplyDeleteplace...i just think it will make thigs a little bit easier...and we will become more lazy....
~Cyndi Gallegos~
1. My favorites sites are myspace, facebook, youtube, yahoo, teenink, next step magazine & one manga.
ReplyDelete2. Maybe 3-4 hrs a day.
3. I've seen futuristic shows enough that I've heard about the web, or people linked to the web that ultimately let themselves go in it. I don't really believe it'll make things better since our world can at any have some kinda power surge or what not. So maybe, maybe not, I;m not really sure.

i spend a alot of time online on myspace youtube and google when im bored i look stuff up every day that i dont go home with my girlfriend but i spend a good 6 hour till i go to bed
ReplyDelete1.Google is one of favorite web sites because you can find alot of differnt information.
ReplyDelete2. spend about 8 hours on the web each week.
3. i dont know.
1. I go onto Facebook to see what my friends are up to. I go onto Youtube and DailyMotion for the next wacky video. Also I'll go to a game site like Free Online Games to mess around.
ReplyDelete2. Maybe 15 hours tops
3. If the whole world was connected to eachother, we could talk about common problems and maybe everyone would be a bit friendlier. Plus with translators, there's no language barrier.
spend a alot of time online on myspace youtube and google when im bored i look stuff up every day that i dont go home with my girlfriend but i spend a good 6 hour till i go to bed james masseau srry forgot to sign

ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite web pages are yahoo its fun you can chat listen 2 music and much more
ReplyDeleteSylena Taylor
my space,face book,messenger and youtube i usually spent 2 or 3 hours every day on internet i like this pages cuz i like spend my time talking with friends and listen to music !!! yes !
ReplyDelete1.facebook, google, youtube, yahoo. they are all useful or entertaining.
ReplyDelete2. 15 hours-ish
3. yeah
I really only use Youtube, facebook, and any other website i need to use for school. i like these cuz i can just use them. 4-5 hours on the internet.
ReplyDeletethe web has already changed how the world works u can buy stuff online and talk to ppl online.-Billy Hundt
youtube is probaly the only site i really be on, i be on myspace a couple times, thinkin about making a facebook. Im usually not on for more than an hour a day, unless im on psn, internet has already changed the world
ReplyDeleteBrandon Evans
I like to get on Myspace playlist and youtube when im on the computer on my owntime those are the only sites i get on I think myspace changed the world because everybody and they momma got 1
ReplyDelete1. like Myspace,youtube and project playlist mainly just so i can check my mail and listen to music.
ReplyDelete2.i really don't spend a lot of time online.
3. yes
1. Bassdrive.com, Facebook, Myspace, Gmail, GoogleMaps. Bassdrive b/c it has the best music. Facebook to keep in touch with people and promote events. Myspace to promote my music and check out other musicians. Gmail is my main email source and I have 4 gmail accounts funneling into one.
ReplyDelete2. 60 Hours per week.
3. The internet has already transformed global information transfering. This exists both at a corporate level and an individual basis. The ability for an individual to purchase products from overseas is much easier as well, so this adds to a global economy that is fast rising. There was a time when London, UK and France had cutting edge fashion, unknown to the west. Now however, smart importers are researching trends overseas as they develop and importing the goods and services here on a purchase order basis. I do believe the continued change will be a positive one which will break down boarders and boundries, oppression and censorship.
1: my favorite sights are project playlist because it lets me group all my favorite music together and not waste time searching for it.
ReplyDeletefacebook- i like facebook because it lets me keep in touch with my friends
Youtube because you can find anything on youtube
and the detroit free press website because they generally have good stories about the 4 professional sports teams in detroit.
2:I usually spend about 1.5 hours a day so about 10-11 hours a week
3: the internet will have a positive affect on the world by alowing people to spread ideas and also learn about new ideas from home. It is also a way that people with low income can become educated for a low cost.
Seth Kalis 4th hr.
1) some of the most popular sites that I like on the web are myspace, facebook and occasionally websites sites that I get info from. Also I love to download songs so thats a plus. whyy the interest me its a good social environment to connect with your friends and talk to each other but random information.
ReplyDelete2)The time I spend online is fairly short seeing as I dont have access to the net in my home. but to estimate I would say 3 to 4 hrs.
3)Yes I believe that random things as well as new innovations to the already created inventions of technology would prove to be beneficial to the world. There are alot of things that do change the world and technology is one of them and without we wouldnt have some of the great innovations and things that we have today. Its realluy crazy because computers and technology is how most of the world interacts.
1. Youtube, Playlist. Youtube to watch videos (duh) and playlist to listen to music while i play my computer games.
ReplyDelete2. 20 hours during the week, 20 hours during the weekends, so about 40 hours a week.
3. The growth of the internet will eventually make the world a better place because eventually, ideas will be spread worldwide, plans to help others will expand over the internet (such as online charities), and also, as i have experienced, the ability to learn of different cultures around the world in places such as Germany, The United Kingdom, and Poland.
myspace,facebook,youtube,yahoo,clothing sites,project playlist because i like to look at clothes and talk to my friends and go on farmville. I spend about 5 to 6 hours on the computer a day. The growth of the web will change the world because everything will be put on computers and so much easier and there will be less real human interaction.
ReplyDelete1.Facebook,myspace,myyearbook why because them site keep me up with my old friend and how there doing and it make me new friends2.i spend mostly my day on the computer time out of time3.no i dont think so because internet not always true and u cant always found what you need
ReplyDeletei would have to say jamglue and myspace. when im on a computer really all Ido is listen to music and talk to ma friends online.. sometimes ill look at updates on famouse ppl. but umm im usually on a goo 2 hours off and on a day, but ireally dont know if it will change or help in the future.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely a great fan of the following: Facebook, NOT Myspace, Youtube, and Grooveshark. I'm a social person, therefore I like to stay connected with all my friends and family.
ReplyDeleteOn average I'm on the computer about 3-4 hours a day. You can do the math by multiplying that number by 7.
The Web has a great impact on people. Anywhere from meeting new people, learning new information, reading the news, or staying connected with loved ones. It can only go further from here, but it is not necessarily always a good thing. There could be a time where no one will interact with one another anymore, and it's all virtual. So I think balancing real life with the virtual life is most important for our society.
1)myspace, youtube, and yahoo. i get on yahoo just to check my e-mail, youtube to watch vidoes, and myspace to catch up with friends.
ReplyDelete2)i don't really get on the internet.
3)i think that the web can lead to a better world, because we learn so much from what we see and read, but then at the same time, i think that it can lead to a world full of violent form what we learn on the web.
I like myspace youtube and playlist myspace has changed the world because everybody and their momma got 1
ReplyDelete1.myspace,youtube
ReplyDelete2. one to three hours
3.yes
1.i like facebook,myspace,twitter,and youtube.
ReplyDeleteFb,Ms,and twitter, keep me updated of all my friends at all times.
2.i spend about 7 hours a week on the internet, i think,
3.i dont really know what it will lead to, the web can be seen as a good or bad thing.
i think in the end, everything we ever want to know, or learn will be on the web, which causes problems with the people who are quilified for those certain jobs, they lose money,and the demand for them are low.
1. google, myspace, jamglue. myspace allows me to keep in touch with other people. jamglue allows me to get the music i want. and google allows me to find anything im looking for.
ReplyDelete2. about 48 hours a week
3. i believe the web will bring the people toghether instead of apart by allowing us to see or hear each other over the web by keeping in contact
myspace,youtube,messenger,playlist,google i usually spent like 2 hours everyday i like this pages because i can talk with my friends and found information of somethings!!! yes!!!
ReplyDeleteNatalie Estrada.=]
1. some of the websites that i like are asiantown, hotmail, myspace, youtube, youranimenow and facebook. i like them because it is fun to chat with friends & cousin and you can listen to music. also you can put music in there. there's movie in there for you to watch when you're bored too.
ReplyDelete2. all day on the weekend. 5 hours everyday
3. well, i think the webs sometime are safe and sometime are not because some site could broke your computer.
1.my space i dont spend a lot oftime on my space just sometime cheking my mail and school things i use my space 2 days a weak. face book i spend 2 hour a day my favorite website,youtube listen to musics,shows alot of things on youtube i just like internet..
ReplyDeleteI like facebook, myspace, and youtube. The first two are social networking sites, and fun to talk to your friends with. But youtube is just a good way to find viral videos.
ReplyDeleteI probably spend about 6 hours a week on the internet; Because I get bored.
I do think the internet will create a better world, because it is full of information and can always help one to learn something new, and should only get better as it expands.
-Myata Bryant
Some of my favorite websites are facebook,myspace,yahoo and youtube.I like these websites because we get to chat with our friends and i like youtube because we can look up videos. I spend about ten minutes each day....Keanu Torrez
ReplyDelete1. Microsoft, google, 4chan (not for faint of heart), encyclopedia dramatica (also not for faint of heart), Facebook, Yahoo, Youtube

1. Google, my go-to source.

ReplyDelete-------JAY KOLLIN
1. my favorite website would be, facebook, so i can talk with my brother and sister because i dont get to see them very often.
ReplyDelete2. i spend about 4-6 hours a day, usually more on the weekends.
3. no, the only thing that can make this world turn for the better is for the internet/computers to be downgraded, many people spend to much time on the internet/computer which is making this world more of a cyber world. we need more people to get out into the world.

ReplyDelete2. 7-8 hours a week is the time i be surfing the web.
3.i believe it will go both ways, the volience might decrease but then people will also use the web to make threats.
