Are you an Internet addict?

Hahahaha, I’m not surprise as more young people are becoming Internet addicts. The demographics given in the video below, albeit Americans, it is about right lah if compared to local context.

I would reckon young kids and adult would likely make up the major bulk of these Net junkies, FaceBooking and Tweeting like there’s no tomorrow.

I know as I was an addict too when I upgraded to unlimited Internet usage with Pacific Internet back in the 90′s. I was around 18 or 19 years old then.

Then I realized that I was not in control, but instead it was my addiction to get online that’s dictating my life, and being a control freak that didn’t quite goes down well with me.

So I ‘reformed’, sparing go online as I matured, and in-fact turned the table around. I found out the secret of using the Internet to make a living without lifting a single finger, or when I’m not even using it. Cool eh!

People do curb your Internet usage, there’s a real World out there for us to explore. Find your purpose in life. I found mine, and it wasn’t the Internet.

According to a survey, almost half of young Americans check Facebook or Twitter if they wake up at night, which adds to growing concerns about internet addiction. CBS Katie Couric comments.
