After I read "Growing Up Online" in the PBS presentation, I have a lot of opinions about this topic. On the one hand, I think computer is very useful and helpful in our social lives. because it helps people to make friends, and also change their personality. According to the "Growing Up Online","Autumn tells FRONTLINE,I just became this whole different person,I didn't feel like myself, but I liked the fact that I didn't feel like myself. I felt like someone completely different. I felt like I was famous." In another words, network makes she become more confident.So, I believe that computer is useful and helpful, it helps people to make friends,and also change their character.
On the other hand, some people think that computer affects people in a negative way, because it makes teenagers spend too much times on it, and forget the ability of reading a book. I have remember in the video a boy said that, " I have not read a book long time." the reason is he just find a summary of the book online. This shows that teenagers overuse of the computer, and lose the reading ability.
In conclusion, I think computer is like a double-sided knife,depend on how people use it and what they use it for. we can take the advantage of the advanced technology to help us work things out and use them in a more properly way.

We use computer in many area, such as studying working, communicating and so on. Our life can not without computer since it involved in our life. One of the most convince thing as you mentioned above computer can make us communicated with different people. Computer connect the world together. However, we can not ignore the disadvantage that computer brings to us. I agree what are saying about computer have negative effect on teenage's study. It is a very harmful effect for their life. As you said, we have to use computer in the advanced side not disadvantage side and makes it helps our life more and more.
