I dunno what I would do, maybe I would just do nothing. But one thing I'm sure: if there was no internet, we all would be muuuch more healthy ahahhaahaah I mean, I would play more soccer or walking, we wouldn't sit for hours looking at a bright box (what is not good for your eyes by the way). But I'm happy internet exists because this is the only way I can practice english language (isn't my english good? oh now you know this isn't my first language). That's it

Well if there were no iPods, I'd go back to the next best thing (of it's time, surely not now): CD Players. So if there were no internet, the next best thing is television, so I'd switch back to that. *shudders at the thought*

I'd pretty much do the same thing as the previous poster, or I might just re-invent the internet. It would have to exist sooner or later with people like Bill Gates around.

Without the Internet, I'd go out, play footy, play with my mates.
Be more active. Just, Just it would turn my life around and My Mates won't call me a computer 'nerd'. Even though I'm not.

If there was no internet I would probably be outside right now walking around or most likely taking a nap and watching a bit of TV, or just hanging with friends

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.
