Usage of "imbed"

I know how deeply you are imbedded in the internet.

Is it correct to use imbed here?

Solution 1:

The word is embedded, but it's not appropriate in that sentence. You probably need something like I know how involved you are with the internet, but it really depends on what it is you want to say.

Solution 2:

Imbed is an alternative spelling of embed, and the relevant meaning of embed is the second sense in wiktionary's entry: "(by extension) To include in surrounding matter. [e.g.] We wanted to embed our reporter with the Fifth Infantry Division, but the Army would have none of it."

That is, the latter half of the example sentence means "are involved in the internet", "are included in the internet", or "are integrated into the internet". The general meaning of the example is "I know how deeply your activities are part of [or depend upon] the internet".
