When you first hear the term internet addiction, you may smile and think this new term is a joke. Okay, so maybe people do waste a lot of time on the internet. But how can that be such a bad thing?

Yet, internet addiction can be a serious problem. Like many addictions, it is a compulsive disorder. First, take the word addiction itself. Addiction means that you are dependent on something, it is taking up a lot of your time. Now think about the time one can waste on the internet. Okay, so an hour here and there isn't a bad thing. But if a person is addicted to the internet they will be online longer than just an hour and it won't just be an event that happens occasionally, being online is something they do daily for hours on end. This addiction can lead to time away from family and friends. It can even led to time that should be spent at work.

Internet addiction can be further explained into subcategories, too. One may not just be addicted to the internet. One can get addicted to certain activities that perform while on the internet such as: online auctions, online chat rooms, online surfing, online gaming, and this addiction can even led to more serious online problems such as online gambling and online cybersex.

How do you know if you have a problem? You should start by looking at your internet habits. Then ask yourself such questions as: How often are you online? Does being online ever interfere with your work or home duties and if so how often does it? How often do you check your email? Do people in your home complain about how often you are online? Do you continue to search out new online friends? When you are not online do you anticipate when you can go back online? Do you get annoyed when someone interrupts you while you are online? Do you loose sleep because you are online late at night? Do you ever hide the length of time you were online?

The answer to the above questions can indicate that you have a problem. If you think you do, what should you do? Like with any other health problem, you may want to consider counseling. If you can't afford counseling, you may want to check out some websites that offers some help.

It may seem strange that there are websites that help with online addiction. Yet, if you think about it online websites may be the best place for online addiction sufferer to seek help. A great site is netaddiction.com. At this site, they further explain what online addiction is. They also have online self tests you can take, to see if you have a problem and to see just how deep your problem is. They also offer advice for more serious online problems such as online gambling and online cybersex activities. They even have chat rooms where recovering addicts and family members of recovering addicts can come together and share.

Should one avoid the internet for fear of getting addicted, no? The internet is a wonderful tool. You can learn a lot online. Plus, it is a great place to just relax and have fun. But moderation is the key in any activity, including the internet.

Parents should also monitor their children to make sure that they are not becoming addicted to the internet. Some children, especially teenagers, have problems building friendships and relationships. You don't want your child's only friendships to be on the internet.

The internet and your online friends should not take the place of real life and real life people. If you remember that one sentence, you will continue to enjoy the internet in a healthy way.

Dual Sim Mobile Phones

In the Indian phone market the CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) technology has a fair reach but the GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) or better known as the sim card technology has a preferred appeal.

The CDMA service providers have reduced call rates for their consumers but have an inferior network reach over the GSM technology. Hence dual sim card phones are also designed to support one CDMA network and the other, a GSM network. The dual sim phones in India were first launched by Spice mobile phones. They pioneered in providing a reasonably good handset which used the dual sim technology. They garnered immense popularity for their dual sim phone launch and have been synonymous with this phone technology.

The common drawback of these dual sim phones is the battery life. The switching of the networks reduces the battery life and it is inconvenient for the user to charge the phone every few hours, if you use it extensively. These dual sim mobiles try to pack in the multimedia features but they are not up to the mark. Hence a dual sim phone serves only the purpose of a plain phone supporting 2 networks and the other features are not attractive.

Samsung Mobile also launched a couple of dual sim card phones. They have received appreciation for the ease of operations and the smooth navigation between the networks. The dual sim card mobile phones are very promising and they have a huge potential market. The dual sim card provides for the comfort of using two numbers at the same time. It gives you the ease of switching between networks at your convenience. It also provides with the comfort of attaining calls and messages from both networks simultaneously.

These dual sim mobile phones are pricey and are usually above the entry level mark. They have now started sporting different forms such as clamshell and slider designs. They are more popular in the Asian markets and are gaining relevance in the European markets. There are varieties of dual sim mobiles such as twin CDMA supporting phones, CDMA and GSM networks support phones or twin GSM network phones. You can choose the one that best suits your needs and fits your budget.

JULY 31 ?It never ceases to amaze me that you can get people to do anything for you, for very little I might add. I mean, look at the people protesting about the ISA. To be exact I dont mean those calling for the abolition of the ISA, rather those calling for the retention of the ISA. Then we have junior ministers saying things that people who understand?the true?nature of the ISA would support it.

Just so that people do not accuse me of being bias, let me summarise the pro-ISA camps main arguments on why we need the ISA:

1) It has kept the peace for the past 52 years. Without the ISA, the religious and racial extremists will have a field day.
