Before the internet was introduce the people are using letters to communicate to their relatives and friends on far away places. It takes months if not years before you will received your answers. Later on the Wright brothers invented the airplane, Graham Bell invented the telephone. Everything came one by one and so on and so forth. But was the introduction of modern technologies? become more healthful or more damaging to our Mother Earth. Today war, making friends, airplanes and almost everything is visible in the internet as if you have nothing to hide. You can't even noticed that the person beside you is already taking pictures and posted you on that very moment in the internet. All these things if happened long ago it will be ruled out as a miracle. Yesterday during holidays people are mostly out drinking, merry making, doing some works in the farm but today some don't even bother what is happening outside as long as he have the computer on his side. Patriots, Scud missiles are using the internet to meet there targets. Sometimes I can say to myself, the internet was the key factor in all the best of the goods and the evil, far as expected and hazardous as a whole to humanity.

In a way the internet did do its part in bringing the world together. If the world didn't have the internet I'm sure humans would have found another way of sharing information. Maybe in another 100 years people will be asking the same question as you but not about the internet.

Yeah, it is really amazing to have a gadget such as internet everything was made easier. It is also made some people lazy on relying mostly on internet to the extent of buying their needs at home but economically it help save a penny in transportation cost and the used of time on shopping.

i think it would be better in some ways. in other ways however it wouldn't. i think the internet more then anything is a major contributor to obesity. the internet can be very addicting. time can stop mindwise because i love it but its not healthy. many people including myself just need to make themselves get up and do other things.

It's true there many bad and good things the internet contributed. In a million thoughts I never did expect to have all this things to happened. Just imagine 1970's even the telephone is not of used to many people, few don't even know what is telephone. Today not only to communicate but also to see live on your computer screen the person you are communicating with.

Life will be unimaginable without the internet. However, let's see:
1. Life will be slower = less stressful
2. People will be more real = less messaging
3. Communication will be more meaningful = better written snail mail letters
4. Earth will be less full of electronic junk
But that means I might not get to make money online in myLot too... that will be sad.

If there hasn’t been any advent of the internet in today’s generation, then most likely we will be stuck in a low tech. society, we will go back to the traditional mode of communication devices such as radio, telephone, and television in order to know some information and news. Since, there is not online source to do such research and knowledge builder.
It will also be hard, since we are dependent in online technology to satisfy our needs and wants. Life without the internet could be a difficult time to adjust since we are really used to such technology, and most devices and gadgets also relies on the internet to satisfy their purpose.

Technologies makes every life of human being much easier, sadly most of it do damage our environment. As to the internet still some people use it to abuse others, they use it for some unselfish reasons. Internet does really help us in communication and we cannot live with out it for now because lots of people depends on it, every company depends on the internet but sadly internet is also the source of evil things. People should stop acknowledging bad things inside the internet.
