Internet, The Myth...

.
 These days, someone who's not on the Internet and never had a close relationship with a computer because of his/her lack of time -or interest...- probably thinks that the World Wide Web is a place full of advertisements and porno sites, or BBS is something owned by junkies and satanists and if you go on-line a hacker will invade your machine, deleting everything right after he downloads them to his computer or inserts a virus in yours. That's caused by the misleading of the Media and some freaky magazines that don't know what they're talking about.

.I bet you can find lots of drug related sites but there are many anti-drug sites as well that can help you get over your problem or urge you to help someone else with his. If you look, you can find anything you want... there isn't just this or just that. This big variety of information is what makes Internet so special. When you are on-line you can do almost everything!
 
The Internet is like the Real World... too big to explore in one lifetime.

Just look... When you go on-line you never have enough time to finish your search on a topic because of the tons of information that Pop Up.
