can you imagine world without internet now!!!

[Wduaqnug]

couple years ago there were only small percentage of people online but now every other person is online, tonight was having dinner from every corner of restaurant i hear "online"

 

[tweakmm]

yes, very easily, I imagine the world quite different from how it is now sometimes anyway

 

[Aves]

No.


Edit: I take that back, I can but I don't like to think about it.

 

[Spac3d]

Maybe in a nitemare or when I am very very drunk, but I cannot while I am conscious(sp?).

I would be rich and tan instead of poor and pale.

 

[Atrail]

Of course I can imagine it.
I can even imagine no eletricity and running water.
Makes life more interesting.

 

[Hammer]

it just wouldn't be the same

 

[fastman]

I could live, but it would be very diff. Just like Cell phones have changed the way we communicate

 

[RossMAN]

No.

I could live but I'd have to do things the old fashioned ways.

Go there.
Phone.
Fax.
Yell.

 

[Supermercado]

I could imagine it, but I'd much rather not.

I think you should be banned for bringing up such a HORRIBLE AND INCREDIBLY SCARY topic.

 

[AnyMal]

I wouldn't wish it on my enemies!

 

[boyRacer]

I wouldn't have such a big debt on my credit cards.

 

[hollowman]

Then we would have world peace.

Although I enjoy the internet immensely and utilize it in my work daily, it would take me about 3 hours to get over the withdrawls. I could go back to the "old" ways of communicating with no difficulty. It would be a traumatic experience for you young people who grew up with it, though.

How many of you can remember when television was only black and white?

Can you remember when stereo sound came out?

In what year did Ford introduce the overhead valve engine into its production cars?

Sorry if this is a little OT, but the original question made me start thinking (always a bad thilng).

Eeeeeeek :Q

No Internet, No cell phones, No faxes....No problem

Life just goes along slower than it does now. The problems remain exactly the same but take longer to develop and to be discovered by those involved. For instance, at the turn of the 19th century, it took months for news of who won a National election to be reported. Now we expect to know the results before the polls are closed. So what difference does it make really as long as everyone else in society is running at the same speed.

Typewriters and carbon paper copies with expert typists was the standard in the 1930s and 1940s. Now everyone is a typist with a word processor. Jobs and skills change as processes are speeded up.

 

[SoylentGreen]

I had a life before, but now have an internet one most of the time.
Yep, turn away run away turn away I can.

I didn't use the internet until junior year in HS. It would take longer to do things, and I would probably spend more time watching TV.
