Pool

There are plenty of
things available online to keep our minds busy when things get a little
too stressful from classes and work schedules.  There are
endless chat rooms and book on file.  My personal favorite of
all the cool things online are the video games. 
I do some of the console networking games with friends around the
country and the world, but I think that for convenience and for the
mass population who can't afford these games there are plenty of
alternatives.  My favorites are online pool and online snooker.
There are a bunch of sites that offer various forms of these games that
can be accesses anywhere any time.  They also usually have a
place on the screen where you can chat with your opponent in real time
as you play.  This aspect makes it fun because when you are
playing an online
pool game and someone just sweeps the table with you there is
an urge to just vent or to say good game.  This is also one of
the cool aspects of the internet in general. As I play  an online snooker
game I have no idea who my opponent could be. They could tell
me one thing and be something else.  I have a theory that
because we find out so many times that thing this happen, we meet
someone online and later find out they are not who they say, that many
humans love the feeling of anonymity.  Many people are more
than willing to fill out an entire character for themselves in
cyberspace and make others believe in who they are talking
to.  I don't know much about psychology but I think there may
be something to study here.  Anyway, so there is this huge
resource out there for people to find any information the want and to
speak to anyone they want and what I find most often is that people
want to use it to have fun.  What would the internet be
without chat rooms or video games? I think it would just be another
shelf in the library but instead we have a living, breathing organism
that can give us any information we desire while we order pizza and
play video games.
