Aol Advert - Is the Internet Good or Bad? - Discuss

[WendyS]

Anybody seen this advert which was on TV last night? It's quite thought provoking but is there actually anywhere a web site/forum where we can all actually discuss as invited?

I saw it as well and thought it was a good subject. I seem to remember it saying something about an MSN forum or an AOL forum. If you find it come back and post an answer back to this question letting me know where it is!

I saw it as well. I suppose it's a good idea, but that would be an awfully large forum, if you know what I mean! I suppose it's worked well if we're discussing it here. Personally, I live 5,000 miles from my friends and family at home, so I couldn't live without it even with any negative points that go with my personal internet use.

One more point though ... coming from AOL is not always necessarily the right market as they're this huge corporation who tend to (seemingly) have more users who don't know as much of what they're doing on a computer. I worked for a rival ISP at one point, and people would just bounce back and forth between us and AOL depending on what was more difficult or which had less problems, so that would probably account for some negativity on many people's parts. OK, I'm done now.
