To me, the main boon of the net is easy access to information that in the past required a trip to the library.
Being a lover of research and information, I adore the library - but for being able to easily search for facts on any subject while drinking my coffee, for ancient or modern language translations, for news or views from outside the USA, for arcane tidbits that complete or update my knowledge, for keeping up with scientific and medical discoveries, for historical information - the net is heaven.
Added bonus - the book I want is never 'checked out'.
As to what men, women, or anyone else does on the net - I couldn't care less.
