Positive because I have fun and killing things is a medium for my rage. (On average, I never get angry, so if I do, my NPCs in games suffer.)

do you feel in your own words, that the use of electronics through the course of a day have affected your life in a negative, or positive way?
I feel that my life has been affected in a positive and negative way, depending on the circumstances; life is now much easier as a result of electronics, but too much time can be wasted on them. I find my academic life much easier due to electronics; writing essays has become a breeze with the easy ability to edit etc; through email i can easily ask for help if needed quickly; i am able to find many different internet sources easily. The negative side is there too though; you can become sloppy using electronics, relying on them too much for certain things (grammar check for instance? i dont rely on it, but i know people that do); can be easily distracted from studies etc by video games; WoW...

 

[Matronadena]

awesome, looking great guys and gals.

something to possibly add onto the last question. besides it's ups or downs you personally state, is there anythng more or less destructive in the digital age, than what came before ( for those of us before the boom) or the same question but when looking ahead?"

do you feel in your own words, that the use of electronics through the course of a day have affected your life in a negative, or positive way?
It's affected my life in both ways. I am a bit overweight, formerly very obese, but like I said, that's going away. I have much better typing skills and reflexes than most people I know. I am also very entertained most of the time, and much more social than many people I know, due to my constant forum use.

Positive way, relives stress and it's fun to socialise with friends half way around the world. Some games want to make you healthy so you can do half the stuff on it (E.G. Mirrors Edge)

I think the studies are wrong.

Well, both. Video games do waste time, but John Lennon once said, "Time you enjoyed wasting was not wasted." They can be positive as well (i.e. stress relievers), but overall? They balance out.
