The internet is now a staple part of our daily media diet, but with well over 100 million sites to choose from, how do we ensure that we get the right balance?Here, five experts give an example of their daily online elevenses.

Whether Wiki’ing obscure facts of dubious credence for the weekly pub quiz or using it as a source of research in the workplace, the internet has become an indispensable day-to-day tool for many of us.

Without the web for instance, you’d have never been knocked-out by this (potentially bogus) Wikipedia-researched beauty: in 2007 there were at least 106,875,138 websites in existence.

Take that figure with a pinch of salt, but whatever the precise number of actual active sites, the web’s scale hints at the wealth of variety it has to offer.

As the insights of these creative folk will show, while the internet at its best is a hub of inspiration, it can also occasionally be a source of frustration.
