Tangled in the Web

Tangled in the Web has a good example of how easy it is to allow the internet to take time away from other, more important priorities.
The internet has many valuable resources and information, however it can also facilitate the wasting of a lot of time. It's easy to let online games and chat rooms take up hours of time that should be used for more important things. For example facebook can be a great resource to keep in contact with friends and allow you to see what new crazy pictures they've taken and what's going on in their lives. It's still not as good as having a conversation in person. I think that having balance in your life requires setting limits on how much time will be spend online.
