Nice is not easy, but it helps.
What's wrong with the internet? This new communication and information platform provides a lot of possibilities. But act carefully: Where there's light there's shadow. You will find a lot of problems using the internet. The discussion of the Blog niceisnteasy.blogspot.com/ will demonstrate, how the kids of the united Europe will discuss together dangers of the internet.

Nice is not easy, but it helps.
Preamble
In your family, in your circle of friends you can trust the people you are in contact with. The question is how we interact with the internet? The behavior of people often is as they have never heard of good manners. And it seams that the internet is populated by criminals and other “strange” people.
The group of the BG Babenbergerring (Wiener Neustadt / Austria) discussed the situation in internet, internet security and problems using the internet. They were supported by several young students from the Vircava high school in Vircava (Jelgava/Latia) and some guys from the Scuola Media ‘Don Milani’- Istituto comprensivo 14 in Verona (Verona/Italy).
What did they do?
They run an internet blog that’s open for public and there they published the results of their discussion and by the time the different entries were commented by classmates and other people.
The discussion did not bring results or solutions of the different problems. But it’s virtually certain that the awareness of the discussed problems increased. The postings can be an advice to other young people where to find problems and criminal situations and that will help to protect against this “outgrowth of evil”.

Further intention
This project must be seen under the guidelines of the Commission of the EC for the special programs to learn foreign language (This Blog runs in English, the mother tongue of the participating students is German, Latvian and Italian).
New development
A second Latvian school joined our project. They used the opportunity to discuss internet communication and safety by means of our blog. Here you have two pictures of Rota Barite, teacher at the DIKĻU Pamatslola in Latvia. These photographs show the students at work (J.NEIKENA DIKĻU PAMATSLOLA (in DIKĻU PAGASTS, VALMIERAS RAJONS, LATVIJA).

Comments
i thought that you were correct with the way you explain how the internet is qoute "Where there's light there's shadow" there always will be a "shadow", because the internet is a very good thing it can open up horizions but there are many ways to get virisus, ect.

Nice done, good work (The students seem to be very young, for that age they own interesting opinions and an intelligent approach to the theme).
