I kinda agree with you, but not entirely.
More people should discover the wonder of books, which are much more entertaining than stuff like Runescape. The world would be a better place if more people read books.
Also, exercise and fresh air are great for the body, mind, and soul. Sunshine on your back and the breeze in your hair is better than the internet.
However, I think the internet is a great way to communicate, for example email and IM. I was able to continue contact with my best friend Hayley when she was away from school after her back surgery.
Computers also provide education/entertainment for kids. I remember being 3 years old and playing Putt-Putt and Freddie Fish. When I was a little bit older, I played Zoombinis, a logic game. Good times. :) Those kind of games help kids think logicly and stuff.
Lastly, the internet is a great source for information, and its all at your fingertips. Although books are a little better, its easier to search on Google than to search through an entire library
