The biggest change the Internet has had on my life is that it has given me the ability to stay in touch with family and friends around the world. I frequently communicate with friends in Antarctica, Mexico, and the US. If I did not have the Internet, I feel as if I would not be in touch with a lot of the people I communicate with.
