The
internet is a part of daily life for pretty much everybody in the Western world.
We use it at work; it’s on our smart phones in our pockets; it gives us
directions in our cars, and, with the advent of affordable high speed internet,
we’re getting these things incredibly fast.
There’s
no doubt that the internet benefits us in many ways, but for a certain segment
of the population, the internet might be fueling lurking addictions, and even
creating new ones. Almost all of us have turned our computers on to
check email, a bank statement or to find the name of a restaurant, only to find
that we were still looking at our computer screens long after we’ve learned
what we wanted to know.
