Nowadays technology is almost everywhere, to what we wear to what we eat, what we listen to and not to mention what we watch as well. But is there a certain thing or medium or whatever it is that technology provides us that you just cant live without?Like may it be a celphone, computer, car, or television, if you ask me i just cant live without my pc anymore lol , because i used it with just about anything that im doing. My job, talking to my friends and updating myself from time to time with lots of stuff too , thats the use of my pc for me, what bout you? what is it that you just cant live without?

I think that I would not be able to live without the internet and my computer. The only reason I could make it without the television, is that if I had the internet I could look up just about anything that I could watch on tv and watch it online. However, I must say I would miss my television a lot if it were gone. I can hardly sleep without the tv, and if I am in a house and it is quiet it kind of gets on my nerves. One of the first things that I do when I walk in the door is turn on the television, and one stays on the whole time that I am home. Also, if I am not going to be gone for a very long period of time, I will just leave it on. So, it would be hard for me to live without that one as well. Interesting discussion. Have a nice day!

You know those are just things. I think the thing I can't live without is my family. If my house burned down to the ground, i could live without my laptop, cell phone, my knitting maybe even my guitar. What I couldn't live without are my dogs, the cat and my husband.

How i wish we can learn to live without these stuff but we just cant. Nowadays life in this planet lol almost revolves with this technology, people can stay connected with their loved ones and able to do their job fast and easier, and you get to entertain yourself with lots of games and etc.Gone are the days of just playing outdoors and stuff .But for as long as we are happy i believe theres nothin to be really scared of . Thanks for lending me some of your time ma'am

Umm..oxygen? Hehehe.. The internet? I've built an entire life right in the middle of this garbled, wide, multi-faceted world...most of my friends are here, I get my entertainment fix here, I do some work here, plus I think I also left a big chunk of my sanity beneath one of its skyscrapers...

As i read all our answers i was thinking that in fact all of us cant live without energy (electric for example).Bec all we want pc, internet, cellphones etc but all of these need energy in order to use. So the first thing that we cant live without is energy and secondary all the others.. :))

I got your point without energy we wont be able to use these technology driven gadgets lol .So that means you also agree that we need those stuff badly? Like in our daily lives and sometimes in our work as well? Its not an addiction or something but i think we really need these stuff to help us by and lets us keep up with the changing world. Thanks for sharing

Now that technology has proliferated in this world, most people like myself are very much in tune with the latest gadget. Since my life has been involved with computers and the internet, it is one thing that I cannot live without. I mostly derive my income from the internet and it is like I am not going to survive if I do not have the internet.

Most of us feel the same way too, without the internet its going to be chaotic out there. Well at least thats true today in our time, its going to be a different story 100 years ago lol .

Hi Setsuna, I can't live without the Internet. I recently moved house and one of the things I had to go without while I got organised, was the Internet. I think I had about 2 weeks without it in the house and I was going mental waiting for it to come back. Its absence just left this huge gap in the middle of my afternoon which I had no idea how to fill because I didn't used to do that much else. When I got everything connected and could go online again I was literally over the moon and haven't looked back since. I definitely don't want to have to do that again any time soon though ~ Cringes at the memory ~ All the best, Dranz

Anyways funny when we experience this kinds of stuff then we realize how important these things to us. Good thing technology nowadays is pretty much available in almost everywhere so that we wont be having such problems anymore ;) Thanks for dropping by and hoping to hear more from you in my coming topics too

I cannot live without the internet. My reason for this is that I am currently working from home, caring for my sick mother and the internet is where I get my income from. Its hard when my service goes down and I lose earnings that cannot be replaced by the small credit adjustments that my service provider is giving me. I can live without a cellphone, TV or even radio. But the internet is something else, and I definitely cannot live without it.

Most of us feels the same thing. Im working using my pc sometimes too thats why i just cant do away with it. Plus it keeps me updated with people i know and some family members too. Internet plays a big role nowadays when it comes to our daily needs thats why we as internet savy people cant just do away with it that easy. Thanks for sharing and godbless!

I probably could not live with my Pc and my phone. because both can make me make extra money. even though my PC has been a very long time, I always took care to keep hold can be used. I can not get additional revenue if no PCs and phones. I use the phone to a modem so that I can connect internet. My life is very hard without them.

Me too, without those kinds of stuff im pretty sure we will have a hard time with our lives. Those electronic gadgets helps us with our daily living and makes our work job alot more easier too.Without them it will take us days to complete certain tasks that we can do in a few hours per day
