Internet usage

Over the last Decade the usage of the internet has increased greatly as new software has enabled more people across the world to access the internet. I have been using the internet more and more recently for Leisure purposes, communication with others and for college work also. 
Social networking sites having grown in popularity recently, and i created a facebook account in year 8 and have been using it ever since. I think it benefits me as i can share my opinions and veiws by ether posting videos, status', or by liking different groups that others have created or pages of celebrities. With Facebook i am able to communicate with my friends online by talking on the 'chat'.
