Internet Use and Brain Function

Image via Wikipedia

A number of neurological studies on the brain have apparently shown that one hour per day on the Internet improves brain function. This is because the brain is far more adaptable than was previously believed, even in older people, and surfing the web allows us to learn how to sift through large amounts of information and make quick decisions, thereby improving brain function. The studies do suggest, however, that it is important to balance a large amount of Internet use and social media with more interpersonal interactions, in order to obtain the best results in both areas of experience.
