How I use the internet...

Hello, it's been a long while since I have been on here but it's time to dust off the 'ol blog and what better reason than a school assignment! I like the idea of this assignment because it asks you to either create a blog or use your own personal blog to explain how you (or I) use the internet.
Personally I use the internet for many reasons, the main reason now a days is school work, taking 4 on-line classes can be demanding but it allows me to not be away from home from my family any more than I have to, which is a plus!
Secondly, and I know I'am not alone here, Pinterest! I love pinterest, if you aren't sure of what Pinterest is, it is a website of many categories of pictures, if you see a picture that sparks your interest then you can click on it and go to it's source. I think I use Pinterest as more of a search engine than I do Google, which says a lot.
Pinterest is then a launching pad for everything else I do on the internet, once I find something on Pinterest that peaks my interest I go to that webpage and continue my searching, whether it be recipies, crafts, organizing, fashion, or makeup Pinterest has it all.
Just like anyone else I use Facebook to keep in contact with family and friends but that is the only social media I use.
I also love celebrity gossip sites and popculture websites, the two I frequent the most are TMZ.com and Popsugar.com.
Thank you for reading about how I use the internet, I think that is why I like Pinterest so much is because it is basically learning about what your friends and family like to look at on the internet (you have people you follow which can be linked to your Facebook account.) I hope you have found some new sites to check out!
