We may be lonely, but at least we're enjoying it. Today, the results of a new internet use survey were released. The main finding is that 70% of users say that the internet is improving their lives, another notable stat was that over 50% of those polled had used the internet before.

Personally, I can find more enjoyable content on the web in five minutes than I can surfing a TV dial for a week.
