Internet Day

An internet day is a day on which you can use the internet.

For most people, every day is an internet day, so the term is useless. However, when you cannot afford a monthly internet subscription, and you have to buy internet on a day by day basis, the term takes on a whole new meaning.

Internet mirage

In social networking, an internet mirage is when a user is offline or inactive but appears online or currently active to another computer. This only becomes apparent once the user of that computer attempts to communicate with them. Often, this leads to paranoid feelings of unpopularity, because the user erroneously assumes that the person left because they didn't want to speak to them.
Simon: "DAAVE my good mate, how're you doing?"

Computer: "David is now offline."

Simon: ":O What a douche!... oh wait, it was probably just an internet mirage... or was it?"
