First Blog

My name is Steve B and this is my first time blogging on the internet.  After completing the first assignment of charting how much I go on the internet I realized that I do not use it nearly as much as my friends do. Here is a chart of my internet use over Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday:
Tuesday.
30 min in study hall surfing the internet in the afternoon looking on espn.com and nfl.com.
About 30 min on the computer at my house looking at barstoolsports.com and also checking my email that night while hanging out.
Wednesday.
Spent about 15 min before practice on the internet looking at sports websites and check facebook
Went on the internet that night to go on sakai as well as check my email
Friday -
Was on computer for about 30 min before practice surfing the internet and checking espn.com

After looking at my chart for when I went on the internet I could tell that compared to my friends and other people I don't go onto the internet very much.  Doing this blog alone was something new for me and getting on the internet to figure this out was hard enough.  It was tough for me to transition to using sakai and my.rutgers when I got into college from being in high school when teachers would just tell you what the assignments were.  It is a good thing that schools are transitioning into this type of world where instead of wasting paper everything is put on the internet for students to look at.  I do not go on the internet enough and am not in a routine to check the assignments for this class so feel that it is easier for me when the teachers just go over the assignments in class and hand out the work that students need to do.

Another thing that surprised me about doing this chart and taking notice in when I used the internet was how little I use facebook compared to other people.  I am not a big facebook user and only go on from time to time just to stay in touch with some of my friends from back at home.  I don't really like to always be on facebook and would rather be doing other things along with the fact that I don't have that much free time to really surf and go on the internet for other reasons besides school.
