That would be sad right? But seriously, are there some bad effects or can we live the rest of our lives online?

Staying in front of the computer for a long long time could bring some serious health problems such as eye disorder, backpain, headache, insomnia, obesity(Due to lack of exercise) among others. i can't stay in front of the computer for long because my eyes get irritated easily. maybe due to radiation the computer is emitting and back pain as well. your social life can be affected too.

Well internet is adictive and sometimes i wish i could stay all day, especially wehn finding a new site. It is not good for health since we do not make any exercise, our eye become sore and we will not be personally socially so I try to spen few hours and that's it

tempting to do at times for me. but then i realize I would get nothing done in my life daily, and my 4 year old son would be ignored. So I say that staying online all day long would waste your life away quicker and there is more things you can do in a day then being on computer all day.

I got laid off 3 months ago and at 61 years old I know it'll be tough to find a new job. I'm getting unemployment and we're barley getting by. Since I've been laid off I've been on line for at least 8 to 10 hrs. a day mostly trying to learn how to make money online, after getting burned a couple times I really think I'm getting close. I've learned so much it's unbelievable. I hope there's nothing wrong with being online so much, I'd hate to find out there's some reaction in my body from that!!! LOL!! Good Luck! tdemex

There would be some side effects to living a life completely online - even on the computer to be exact. Just imagine sitting in front of a computer screen all day long - it is obviously not good for your eyesight so your health becomes a concern. Also involving health is going to be your weight. You can eat healthy all you want but if you aren't up moving around and exercising then you're going to start becoming overweight. Also if you don't get enough activity in a day people become fatigue a lot easier as well as just feel bad overall. Besides just physical health you're going to have some mental health issues as well. It's going to be harder to actively socialize with people outside of the net because you're so use to have having to do face-to-face interactions. I just don't see how someone could stand being online for so long. Yes there are a ton of things to do online, but at some point people need to have actual lives and friends to enjoy.
