I really dislike the internet now and days. I avoided facebook and myspace as often as I can so that I can get my homework done. The internet interferes and takes up a lot of time. I'm talking about weekdays where I do half my assignment and weekends, when I'm literally on it 20/24/3 (20 hours in the 3 days that I have off). When I'm writing essays or listening to music, I hardly turn my CD player or actually write with a "pencil" anymore. One of the things on my shopping list to actually buy pencils. Yes, you can say that the internet give you efficient habits about politics, news, and music. It also is good for networking, friends, socializing and communication, but I on the other hand gets really disappointed often and later on, Id regret. Who'd though I stress over simple thing. 
Lately, I haven't been doing what I'm suppose too. For instant, studying. I love to study, what I do get done is my homework though, although I've been told that I'm an overachiever. I'd blame myself because I'm an Otaku (anime Lover) and I read a lot of manga (Japanese comic). I think internet is bad for me in a good way. Of course I'm caught up in most of the stuff I do, but sometimes I wish I could have done more. It's bad not to study for an upcoming quiz or test, but it's not that bad if i already know the materials. It's not like I want to forget completely all the lecture from my class, but yea Internet is like the devil, it's addicting and it keeps you wanting more. As for that, I'm going to try to avoid the computer when I'm home, because in order to blog, I have to use the computer. But I bet beside useful technologies, I'm just going to go watch movies, I can't help making excuses and trying to avoid my homework, that's just the way I am :( I'll try my best to keep up though. :)
