internet use survey

For this assignment we were told to interview five different people about their Internet use. For the interview we asked questions such as do they use the Internet, if so what they do while on the Internet , how long they usually spend on the Internet, and if and how it effects their home life and social life.
I interviewed to people on their late forties male and female, and three people in their late teens, one male and two females. I found that the older adults used the Internet mostly for business such as paying bills emails for work and shopping for vacations tickets. the adults also spend more time doing these things rather than watching TV. The younger adults I interviewed used the Internet mostly for chatting, emailing, games, and shopping. The girls mostly chat and shop and the guys mostly play games and look up sports stuff. These things did not seem to effect their home or social lives.
The results I got are pretty much what I expected. The older adults used the internet for mostly buisness and shopping and the younger adults used it mostly for games chatting and shopping.
