Do you say 'net, internet or web?

[hyphenate]

Poll question: Do you say 'net, internet or web?

I know it can depend on the circumstances, but how do you normally refer to this vast technoopolis? (Now THERE'S a word! :))

1. I don't speak to people, but if I did, it would probably be 'internet' since I spend

9. It's sort of funny now that you mention it. I say "I'm on the computer"

when I really mean that I'm using the Internet. To me, they are inseparable and synonymous.

edit: although, ok, if I want to tell someone to go online to look at something, I guess I usually say "online" (not "go to my computer" lol)
