Before the internet (yeah I'm old) I would read about 3 books a week on science and my favorite topics in biology.

But now it is so easy to connect with others. But unfortunately the internet is largely superficial in the depth of the information it offers. More people seem to be concerned about the most trivial things and selling product seems to be the driving force.

The potential for greatness in the internet is there but it doesn't seem to be working up to what it could be. Maybe in the future?

So that's how he got so smart!

I'd probably be studying more...like for the SATIIs I have tommorow (Saturday), and yeah..I'd be reading more. Like Cokeley said, the internet has great potential, but I think right now we end up using it for a lot of the wrong reasons
