What Would You Do If There Was No Internet? hmm...

[Kapli 0]

Yeah, when I think of it. I'm addicted to the internet, and I think we all are. We can't live without it.If I didn't have internet I guess I would be outside playing umh.. football and being with friends etc ..

Actually, AFTER COMPLEX PERSONAL MEDITATION, my opinion has become this: if the internet were to combust somehow, the world would scream and cry and fuss for about thirty years before someone comes up with the monumental idea of the "NEW TELEGRAPH". It's not copyright infringement because it's new. Also, without Morse Code, we would be putting countless penguins in danger (the movie Happy Feet displays their necessity for beats and rhythm to communicate). So if someone was heartless enough to sever all the network cables of the world and challenge Wi-Fi to a FINAL BATTLE OH NOEZ, that would be the result. Mute penguins and sadness all around

Just moments ago ,i read a topic reading "Can we possibly destroy the internet ??" And here we have another interesting topic.. "What do we do without internet" ? I guess, we would not be dicussing this question here, at the first place !!! I think the core idea about internet is information. People are probably aware of soooooo many things these days ,because of the internet. Even Google ,has become so popular, as it took an initiative to serve the information on the internet to its users ,in an effective way. That has made Google achieve goals, which are paramount.. Whatever i need in my every day life, i just google it. Be it my assignments, or a word, i do not know the meaning of , i am just a google hit away from my answers . And another great thing about using it is communication. I do not see any form of communication , as cheap and as effective as the internet . I call free to people across the globe free of cost !!! The VOIP has made wonders in an average internet user's life. How high can we rate this technology ?? You can speak for hours with your friends at some other country without even spending a single penny !!! We are really lucky to have such seriously damn good technology around us !! But i also do sometimes think that technology could also be the bane of mankind.. Basically ,internet made me lazy. I used to play outdoor most of my life ,until i got internet. The versatility of Internet has glued me to my computer most of the time i am at home. Maybe , we all would have been having very little to study and research about. And also, without internet , there might have been a different and better technology to connect people with information .. We could go on imagining, but personally, i think i would miss Internet badly,if it was'nt there .

I've often asked myself that same question, since pretty much my entire day consists of me doing stuff online. And I couldn't even comprehend what it would be like without the Internet, even though there was a time in my life, where we didn't have the Internet.So much of my everyday life is online, and what isn't, is still on the computer... so it would be a HUGE culture shock for me not to have an Internet to work and play on.I was thinking, if I wasn't working online, maybe I'd like to be an archeologist. I'm not sure the full gist of what they do, but it always interested me, so I would concider looking into that a little further. Plus, I've wanted to be a criminalist for a while now, but I'm not quite sure I have the non-gag reflex that would be needed for that, so I'm not sure if that's quite my speed lol...If computers were still around without the internet, or some kind of gaming system, I think I might have looked into how to create games. I did a little digging before on that, but really haven't looked deep enough into it to see if it's something that would hold my interest long. But I'm sure that it may be able to, since I enjoy computers and coding and that sort of thing.I suppose, I could still be a writer without the internet. Most of what I sell writing-wise is online, but I don't think that it's all that different from doing it completely offline. Plus, I'd probably read a lot more books, cause I find myself often with my nose to the screen reading something or other.Yea, come to think of it, there's a ton of things that I couldn't do without the online world. But I'd never get to meet people from everywhere unless I got out of my computer chair and travelled the world... which would probably happen, if I wasn't so tied to this lovely piece of technology. So yea... it's actually a lot more easy to comprehend than I expected, now that I've actually taken the time to sit here and think about it, and get my thoughts written out.

NO INTERNET! If there was no internet i would, well, kill myself. I would run off the top of a greatly large building head first.

If there there were no Internet our livs would have been 1. Totally different2. Much better (or worse depending on the way ou look at it)3. Technological inventions still would have been there but we would not have been discussing about them so frequently.4. I would have got time for both taking my dogs for playing fetch n park and to maybe get my car washed.5. Most people would have had developed better social skills.

No internet!? O_O Is that even possible? ;_; My future career is goooone gooone foreverrrr~~~ Well... I think I'd go learn how to play the violin, practice martial arts and be buried in books. Well, I think it could change me for the better, but... >_< It hurts! Come to think of it, I have to do my research old school...No wait... If there was no internet... maybe there would be something similar to it but named differently Hmm, I'm thinking too much.

If there was no internet well everything would be different in my life, I would be more into after school activities And well and more into social life with my friends and well there would be no use for the computer so I wouldn't even have one and well I guess everything would be different

Believe me, we won't be feeling any much worse because we do not have internet to start with.Since we have not used internet before, we won't know how addictive or become addicted to internet at all!But without the internet, I may become a bookworm? Or maybe a more 'outdoor' type of person. Or I may become a worse crouch potato at home.(And the word 'porn' wouldn't ring any bells to me lol)

Yeah. I'm with Spathi. If there was no internet, my time would be wasted either by programming, or by playing out of date, boring games that I have already beaten neumerous times and/or hacked. Life would be extremely boring. -GAMMA9

omg no internet, that would be a cruel lifeinternet is one of the major communication ways from todayI guess first thing we should do is follow a course for learning to conversate normally again ^^and nobody mentioned anything about dates, shame on you, this is one huge topic on the internetlol the real life dating conversations would be extremely hard again, msn's emoticons do a lot of work, try it without themgames also take a part of our life, a small or big one depends on how addicted you are to themanyway those old style card / board games wouldn't be a replacement to the pc games from nowit's gonna be hard for much of us because today singleplayer aint the favorite anymore, multiplayer gives all the funI might hold it on for a long time with no internet, but some day it would start to itch ^^

[Iceblade 0]

I would of been happy if there is no internet because if I could of Invented it and I could of had a lot of money but, now it's too late lol

Thats nerdy.I'd just live my life. On account that I wouldn't know of the internet if it never existed. And my knowledge base would be cut in half, I learned most things from the internet. =/
