Why do you use (or not use) the web? What's your relation to the web - love it, hate it, fear it, rule it...?

I use to web to help stay connected with important events and things going on in the world that effect me. Not only does it keep me connect with world events but it helps me stay connected with my family and friends. I love the web. it has been a great help for me with tons of things like school, work, and life in general. Without it in some cases for me communication would be lost.
