Default I Hate The Internet.

Maybe you can help me out here.

I hate the internet.
I hate smartphones.
I hate blogs.
I hate Twitter.
I hate Facebook.

Why?
Because I have nothing to do. What do I get out of the internet that is exciting? Facebook gets boring. I can't get much out of my smart-phone because I have no meaningful reason for those social media apps. I would love to blog but I don't know what about. Twitter is useful for news, but so are news sites (I have no one to converse meaningfully with).

What I need is something to do on the internet. If I had a business - a blog - a meaningful twitter account - something to talk about - I would love the internet.

This may be a rant, a need for attention, but I'm just getting this off my chest.

Oh, and I'm back on TBF.

Trust me when I say it's not that there's nothing to do, it's that you just haven't gotten started. If you don't know what to blog about, blog about everything until you find something you like. If you want a meaningful twitter account, just start tweeting and see what happens.

The internet isn't going to send you stuff to do. You have to get up and find it.

The only thing that isn't making it "fun" is you. You can't look at see that other people ARE having fun, and you aren't and just say you hate it! Plus, the internet is generally really only for the exchange of information.

You say you hate blogs, twitter, but you want one. If you think that will make it more fun for you, and you want to do it then DO IT. Else, there isn't much to talk about! The only thing that can hold you back from something is you (and perhaps the law, in some cases)

Only thing I have on your list is Facebook and yes that does get boring if your on it to long.

Why not research what business/blog to start. Or research how twitter is great in connecting with potential customers ect...

If I had a business (Research a business you want to start or research ideas you have) - a blog (Start a blog following your journey in business) - a meaningful twitter account (start a twitter account to talk to others and find people to help with your journey) - something to talk about (Write articles to help get yourself and future busienss out there) - I would love the internet (love the internet while you make money!).

Knowledge is power. Having power can make a boring time on the Internet, fun. So (study things online) till you find something you enjoy.
