the internets

An intentional mangling of (the) internet used for ironic effect as a humorous reference to the large segment of the population that remains clueless about technology. Now a popular malapropism, "the internets" meme exploded after the second televised Bush-Kerry debate held prior to the 2004 Presidential election. Blogs and Television, especially The Daily Show, bear much of the responsibility for the initial propagation of "the internets" as it is currently used.
When asked about the seeming inevitibility of a draft, the President replied, "I hear there's rumors on the Internets (sic) that we're going to have a draft..."

interneteer

One who is good at the internet. For example, you can find quality links, something funny, good songs.

To be a great interneteer you have to be able to provide something (site, vid, etc.) without much conscious thought.

It's not uncommon for an interneteer to earn many Internets on a daily basis.
You: I'm bummed out. Got something funny?

Me: Check this out link here.

internets

A term used by George W. Bush when he actually had meant to say "Internet":

While it's true that there exists an Internet2, there is no plausible reason to believe that Bush was referring to it, because I have no reason to believe that he is sufficiently technologically literate to be aware of its accidents and (more importantly), Internet2 is used solely as a network with which academic institutions transfer files at extremely high speeds and would therefore not have information about Bush's alleged millitary service foul play.
