I met and old business colleague of mine while I was travelling to New York for a conference. She noticed me while I was standing in the queue at the airport check-in desk. We decided to travel together, and while we were waiting for the flight to leave, we realized that we were going to the same conference and staying at the same hotel. We talked about old times, and while we were having lunch on the plane, she said that she was going to look for a new job. I didn’t think of it at the time, but later on when the plane was coming in to land, I suddenly remembered that we had a vacancy for a lawyer. I told her about the terms and conditions, and later that evening, when we were having dinner, she accepted the position.

Internet helps to learn lots (или a lot). (можно по-другому: Internet helps studing.)
To find more information, download the required essay, watch video about some books which you have already read, everything can be done through the Internet.
Email is one of the advantages of the Internet.
This online service is cheaper than regular mail, and it works much faster.
You never lose touch with loved ones, wherever they are using such mean of communicatoin.
I have a personal e-mail and have an oppotunity to chat with my friends from other cities and countries.
Nowadays there are very different popular social networks where communication with your friends and relatives also is not difficult.
Today there are many different Internet competitions for different subjects which give students the opportunity to participate even in international competitions.
On the other hand I think that the Internet becomes a way of a person life and it is very harmful for our health. Many teenagers spend a long of time sitting at the computers and spoiling their eyes. I don't mean that I am against the Internet, but it should have reasonable limits.
