Internet Addiction
Do you believe there is such a thing as Internet Addiction? If yes, how do you think it differs from other addictions? Obviously, it’s not a physical addiction, but is it an endorphin-seeking behavior, like shoplifting or gambling? It sounds made up to me, but maybe too much time on the 'Net is an anti-social behavior without redeeming value?
I don’t know. |

I figure that spending time on the internet just means I'm not spending it watching tv. Does that mean I 'm addicted to tv?
