Why Use Internet ???!!

It’s the first post and at this time I’m itching to start new web ventures both for fun and profit. I usually do up a list of possible startup and site ideas and narrow them down into those with the highest potential.

There’s really no need to think hard about having the perfect idea. The foundations of popular websites/services are deeply related to the basic reasons why people get online and use the internet. Let’s do some reverse engineering from that perspective.

So, why do people worldwide use the internet?

1. To communicate and socialize

This is very much a fundamental human need. People like to meet and talk to other people through the internet. They use it to maintain new or existing relationships. They want to communicate ideas and share similar interests. So do something which facilitates communication.


2. To find information, learn new things and be entertained

The internet is a massive archive of new and old information. It is also a source of pleasure, giving immediate gratification in the form of images, sound and interactivity. As an educational tool, the web is essential for people who are seeking to learn.

People want to find things online. So help them. Create a system which provides information or filters existing content. Blogs, training courses, social news, aggregated news, paid membership sites, online journals, one-stop entertainment portals, video, image and game hubs with a specific focus.

3. To do work, generate income and run a business

People use the internet to make a living. . Think of ways to help people work smarter and more efficiently online.

Just some thoughts I had. I wrote them down as a reminder and decided to share. ^_^
