The Internet Makes Young People Happy

200066579001 I've long thought that there's a generation gap when it comes to people's view of the web and this research study from MTV and AP among US 13-24 year olds seems to confirm that:  "Cell phones, the Internet and other technologies are integrally woven into the lives of today's young people and nearly two-thirds say they make people happier.  Half of those young people polled say the Internet alone helps them feel happier.  And contrary to popular views of technology as a source of stress, many young people would be more stressed out without technology, with nearly half saying they never turn off their cell phones - even when they're trying to chill out."
