When I'm by myself (Hello my name is Alex :) I use the internet for just about everything. Social contacts to musical research comes from the internet. My girlfriend Christina likes to watch TV and uses the internet for research but it's not as important as Laguna Beach or whatever else is on TV. Which is fine by me. Yin and Yang. When we surf together she's sitting on my leg or in my lap hanging out. We look up movies or look up the weather at the beach and get out the house usually. Sometimes it's used for ... erotic purposes and we leave to the bedroom. lol. When we use it together its a tool to further our relationship. When she goes to China to visit her family I'll get emails and we'll Skype together now that there's a version for OS X. Someday I want to travel with her so we look up travel spots and good places to go. My computer is also my studio for music so I'll test some tracks out on her in Ableton or show her the latest trick I learned. I know she's not really that interested but it's nice she'll hang with me while I musically nerd out. I try not to around her but sometimes it can't be helped. Well thats it for me :)
