Which one is the greater Benefit to your every day life?

 

 

I chose all 4, cause I invented the poll, but I see Wikipedia as a quick reference of topics I just have wondered about, YouTube is fantastic cause it's free entertainment, and the last two kind of explain themselves.

 

so what do you think?

Without a doubt Wikipedia. I rarely go on YouTube and Facebook, though occasionally handy, I could easily do without. Wikipedia enriches my basic knowledge on subjects that I have an interest in. I end up using it nearly every day.

I can't see my life without Wikipedia but I could definitely live without Facebook and Youtube even though I use them both often as well. Netflix I never used.

I saw facebook. It helps me stay connected to people who I don't get to see as much as I'd like (or people that've moved away) and it also helps my friends and I plan stuff as a group (last night's new years party comes to mind.)

I hardly use youtube because the quality is shit. I don't like to use wikipedia because it can be edited by anyone and thus, likely inaccurate. I have never used netflix.

I vote for bittorrent as the greatest "net-vention," as it allows me to watch television shows that I otherwise wouldn't be able to.

I voted Youtube, but now that I think about it I'm not so sure something that provided us the Chris Crocker (the Britney Spears guy) should be considered "great."

 

Eh, I'll stick with my vote considering all of the great live performances of bands I love that are on youtube.

like I said, I voted for all of them, youtube is a love/hate/lust thing. it's free that's a plus, you get to see a lot of hard to find vids on there, also for free, but what also irks my chain is when you have a 15 second video that is made to be 45 seconds, because the person who loaded it deems it necessary to put his awesome clip of his username spinning backwards and upside down at the end of it.

 

ahem, continue

i agree with the wikipedia sentiment, because it's a nice easy way to get my knowledge up.

 

though youtube and facebook provide an oft-needed source of hilarity.

i'm sure that's true if you're focusing solely on the people who are actually still willing to pay for their entertainment when it's available for free. this is the first i've heard of netflix and blockbuster hasn't seen my face in a long time. i find it hard to believe that i'm part of the minority in this situation.
