Pls give reasons.

- First of all, I have an IT degree. I need it to earn my pay.
- Best way to communicate with my family
- Best way to save money: free movies for download
- Best way to know whats happening in any part of the world
- Best way to spend time when bored...


There are tons of other reasons also. I guess those are the main ones I can't live without Internet. Viva Internet!!!!!!!!!!

nope. its a necessity for a well rounded education in todays world. if you dont have access to it in a modern country, you are already behind.

the internet is like the matrix, i think i can live without it but i dunno if it can live without me :) we are no longer socializing in real life, the internet is now like a friend, someone you can turn to when you're sad, when you're lonely :) It's the way of life for most of us except those that don't use computer are pretty much living in the past. I know some people that hates computer and say it's not good to be glued to it.
PC are so cheap one these day anyone can afford at least 3, but some just are afraid to get wet or maybe prefer the old fasion way of watching TV 24hrs a day hehe. I grew up loving computer, it can our friends, they thought we were crazy back in the old day now we prove them all wrong and say hey it can only get better. It make life easier, makes people smarter too, and it keep us out of trouble like going outside doing something dumb because we don't have anything better to do due to boredom. Parent said I would drop dead from using computer too much, may as well be it heck they don't seem to understand that computer can be wonderful once you know how to use it. Bottomline, computer is the best thing that man has invented in the first place and we have come along way. Today, it is more affordable then ever, I don't see why anybody would not want to use one.

Living without the Internet? Sure, no problem.

Living without access to certain types of information and the latest scientific reports? No way.

we all cant live without the internet, the internet contains so much information and convienece that if and when it is given up, the world, today, would completely change.

lots of business and money would be lost, and everything would change. everything.

No.

I just can't, for all the reasons that have been posted here before.

Last time the power went out in my house, I broke out my aircard 300 and laptop and got my relief that way =)
