The Good:
A lot of
people cannot afford to go to a nice college or even have time. People can now
get a degree right online. They can take all of their classes online at home. I
think this site and other sites that offer people to get degrees online are
really good and helpful. Some adults do not have time to go to classes if they
have children but now they can easily take classes right online. I believe that
these sites are helping people continue their education.

The article “Life in the age of Internet addiction” by Ned
Hepbum is about how so many people are addicted to the internet. He talks about
a disorder, Digital Attention Disorder, “addiction to social networks and
computers in general.” People are using computers and iPhones to use the
internet everyday. People use the internet for work, emails, facebook, ebay,
youtube and etc. In the article it
states, “The vast majority of the American population is mildly addicted
technology, and our clinic treats only very serious cases.” To go get help is very expensive almost about
20,000 for 45 day Internet rehab. It is extremely bad that people are using
internet too much. People should limit themselves each day on how much they
will use the interent.
The Ugly:
This article is about someone dying because of cyberbullying. It is about how a student at Rutgers University killed himself
because his roommate used a spy webcam on him having sex with another man and
posted it online. His parents wanted to sue the school but now two years later
they are working together through the Tyler Clementi Center at Rutgers. The
center holds conferences and for students to talk about the transition from
home to college. Too many young people are dying due to cyberbullying. People
need to be careful what they post on the internet because you never know if
someone could be offended by it.
