There are many reasons that I love the internet. Here are my two latest favorites:
www.pandora.com Check this out for FREE internet radio. You can choose from a list of genre categories, or type in an artist to listen to music by them and other artists with similar style. I've been absolutely loving this! Yesterday, I got a little bluegrass, a little motown, a little Jack Johnson and others with some great mellow acoustic guitar sounds, and some LDS music, like Hilary Weeks and others.
www.mapmyrun.com Runners, you're gonna love this. After my run today, I got on this site and using the satellite map, mapped out where I ran. It told me the exact distance I had run. Then I used the workout calculator, entered my stats (age, height, weight, and my time for the run), and it calculated my pace and calories burned. Then I calculated another loop route I'd like to run soon, and found out that it's 6.63 miles. Nice to know.
If you have any other great reasons to love the internet, let me know!

Wow, that mapmyrun site is amazing!! I'm SO glad you shared that!
I've used mapmyrun several times. It's great. Much better than driving the car around. What I can't live without is google. Whenever I need a recipe, an idea of what all the symptoms my kid is having might mean, how to get somewhere, where to find certain stores, etc. it goes on and on. It's way too handy.
The other I can't live without is Amazon. They have almost everything and are almost always the lowest or very, very close to the lowest price you will find even with shipping. But the best part is I don't have to actually load my kids up and search several stores loading and unloading. It comes to my front porch. You can't beat that!
I'm also a google and amazon fan, Ash! It's just amazing what we have right at our fingertips with the internet!
I love wikipedia. If I ever have a question about something I go there. So much interesting stuff.
I also love webmd and google. What would life be like without the internet? And I can't leave out blogger.com. So fun. :)
