Question: Are these top ten reasons why the television is better than the World Wide Web!?!?
10!. It doesn't take minutes to build the picture when you change TV channels!.

9!. When was the last time you tuned in to "Melrose Place" and got a "Error 404" message!?

8!. There are fewer grating color schemes on TV--even on MTV!.

7!. The family never argues over which Web site to visit this evening!.

6!. A remote control has fewer buttons than a keyboard!.

5!. Even the worst TV shows never excuse themselves with an "Under Construction" sign!.

4!. Seinfeld never slows down when a lot of people tune in!.

3!. You just can't find those cool Health Rider infomercials on the Web!.

2!. Set-top boxes don't beep and whine when you hook up to HBO!.

1!. You can't surf the Web from a couch with a beer in one hand and Doritos in the other!.Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
Actually numbers 6 and 1 aren't totally true!. You can get computers that are small and quiet enough to set up in the living room!. You can even get ones that come with remotes, wireless keyboards and wireless mice that use a gyroscope so that you wave them in the air instead of needing a surface to move the cursor arrow!. Then there are WebTV (aka MSNTV) boxes that look like and are as simple to use as a cable box that let you surf the net and even send emails with a wireless keyboard!.

I prefer the net myself for several reasons!.

10!. I can find almost anything I want to see or hear for one low rate (compared to having all the channels on cable or dish)!.

9!. I can listen to advertisement free music and watch video clips while I play video games at the same time!.

8!. I can go on thousands of sites, including this one, and actually interact with them instead of just sitting there like a bump on a log!.

7!. I can post my own pictures, stories, videos and music on my very own site or on hundreds of pre-made sites like youtube and myspace!.

6!. I can keep in touch with friends and family around the world via email and voice chat!.

5!. I can download all kinds of programs that play games, teach me languages, make my computer run faster, make information that has been recently updated available (most non-fiction books are out of date by the time they reach store shelves) etc!.

4!. I can buy stuff off the internet and have it delivered to my door!. You can do that on TV too, but you have to wait while they show all the junk before they get to something you actually want to buy!. On the web, you just search for what you actually want to buy and bingo, there's the web site that has it!. You can also usually find several stores online selling the same thing and do comparison shopping without leaving the house!. Even if you do decide to go to a store and see the product in person, you still already have an idea of what it's worth through your web searches!.

3!. News on the web is like a cross between the newspaper and TV!. You get the video and color pictures of the TV plus you get the in depth, long versions of the story like you do in the newspaper!. There are no time limits like TV nor space limits like newspapers, so the author of the news article has the ability to give you the whole story!. You can also easily search the web for other stories on the same subject from differnet sources and get more than one side of the story!.

2!. You can still watch TV shows!. You can get a device that hooks up to your computer and will let you watch TV on your computer while you work on something else!. Some TV networks also now have past episodes of their shows available to watch on their web sites for free!.

1!. There is no schedule!. You can check out what you want when you want and don't have to worry about what time it is supposed to be "on the air"!. Most websites keep content for at least a few days before changing all of it!. They may put new content at the top or in featured areas, but most still have archives where you can check out past stuff!.

So you see, TV is not necessarily better than the Web!. Some of the things you mentioned are just problems with a slow and poorly maintained computer and/or a very slow internet connection!. If you maintain your PC properly and get a broadband connection, most of your complaints about the web will be taken care of!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
