Ever wondered why do we surf the web?

There are only 4 reasons why we surf the web.

  • To learn
    To find information.
  • To feel.
    To have feeling or be moved – through entertainment or being impressed by something new or beautiful or surprising – is also a reason that people use the web.
  • To connect.

  • To trade.

      Interesting! Maybe these reasons are also linked to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs?
