What’s life without the Internet?

Alright, it happened again! Some dingdong cut the Internet cable for the second time! How can this be? Who can be so stupid to repeat the same mistake twice? Well, whoever it is, it left us stranded in our cubicles…rendering us useless for more than 2 hours.

USELESS? Why are we so useless when there’s no Internet connection? Have we come to a stage where technology is no longer something that makes our life more convinient but instead something that burdens us more. Are we all so dependent on the Internet that we just can’t leave without it anymore?

Can a big corporation fall without technology? Yes, I found out that photohgraphy giant, Agfa filed for bankruptcy last year. Why? Because they fall victim of the growing switch to digital photography.

Can relationship be ruined without the Internet. No email, no messenger and no sms… now this is a scary thought. Imagine there’s no mobile phone. Will you still hang around the public phone for hours calling your girlfriend?

What will happened if there’s no Internet Relay Chat (IRC)? Can you still sleep at night without chatting with your Kristin Kreuk net girlfriend or maybe your Brad Pitt look alike boyfriend? No more alter-ego without IRC! Sad huh?

Sad to say this but we’ve all grown too dependent on the Internet. If you think I’m wrong, then tell me when was the last time you actually wrote a letter to anyone?
