I think the internet is wonderful because you CAN find like-minded people out there from all corners of the earth. It's here to stay, just like other much-maligned technologies such as microwave ovens and cell phones!

Sometimes it is hard to find like minded peple though when you live in a very small community. I live in a small town with about 1500 people and there are not many here who like to scrapbook and make cards (though now that I am starting to meet more people I am finding a few).
That's why I love the connection I have with people on the internet as it is where I learn new techniques and hear about new products!
