What happened in the sonnets?

I am not sure which sonnets you are asking about; many poets wrote sonnets, 14 lines of poetry usually about love (whether losing it, longing for it, or being happy to have it).

Where are sonnets used on a daily basis?

Sonnets are unnatural to the point that they rarely appear in everyday life. They usually only exist in written works, like plays and poems. Shakespeare's work contains numerous sonnets, so Shakespearean plays would be the commonest place to encounter them. Alternatively, sonnets have regained popularity among some modern poets, such as Robert Frost.
