Can you live without the internet?
« on: April 01, 2014, 06:41:42 pm »
I do not know if I want to live without the internet. I know I did when
I was younger, but know I am use to getting things done quickly.

What do you think?

I could probably live with out the internet although it would be a whole different world but i would adapt and overcome, in other words learn to get by without it.

Yes I could. When I was growing up there was no internet, and I made it through just fine. The question for me is do I want to live without the internet and the answer is emphatically no.

Sure I could, but why would I want to? I think about what people who retired did before the Internet was around and it boggles my mind.

Well yes and no
yes i could live with out the net but as technology grows its harder and harder to live with out it as such that businesses are using the net more and more especially when companies are using the net for applications to hire people and using the net for business (to many to list). Though i personally never gotten hired when i do apply to a business online but many places are "apply online only" as it stands in todays society. :cat:

I am of course,  but it makes my life difficult. I am connected with my family thru internet because they are living in other countries without internet it makes my life sad.

Give me food, water and clothing and I can live.  But living without the Internet would be rather dull.

Yes definitely I could live without the internet.  But it does make life easier! 
Also it keeps me in touch with my family who live 4 hours away and for that I am grateful!

I've been using the internet since 1999. Dial up and all that. I think I could live without it. When I go somewhere and there isn't a computer I don't miss it. But when I'm home I use the internet for just about everything.

Realistically, I wouldn't stop breathing or anything (lol), but I'm so used to it being part of my daily life. I use it to find and listen to new music, watch movies and TV shows, catch up with friends and family, research subjects I'm interested in, make money, shop, etc., etc.!!! My world would be turned upside down without the Internet!
