Hello Katie, i can't live in internet. Not because of the information, i'll just miss the connection with the other people. I have no chance to travel, no chance to go home often, no chance to go out really much, no chance to meet my real friends, so internet is the one connection i got with all these people. And i'll miss all of them, if internet doesn't exist.

I could not live without the internet these days as 100% of my income comes from my business which depends on the internet for most of it's sales. If we did not have the internet, I would have to go back to a 'real job'. Something I have not done since mid 2006.
It would suck to have to go back into the real workforce. I love the internet and without it, I would not be able to chat with nice people like you!

It is great. I have the flexibility to work when I want and not when a boss tells me to. Also, it is much easier on my body that working on cars like I used to.

Now it is like my right arm and I have worked many years so now it is time to enjoy my retirement while I can as life is short and I want to have some fun while I can still do so.No I do not want to live without the net and I won't as I work here to be able to afford the net.

I think it's hard to eliminate computer into my life, because i have really come to use it almost everyday for over 3 years now. I can say that before when i was still studying, i rarely use the internet, i use it for research only and no other social networking sites for me. But after graduation, i have worked and it requires using computer so from then on i have been used to using it and i think it is hard for me already not to use it for my everyday activity. I will try though but for sure every other day i will still be using it. I can't bare the thought of not logging in to my myLot account for weeks..heheh

when we are using it's really hard to imagine, i used computer for like 5 years, then i travel and the airport staff broke my computer, i really could live without it for 2 years, i'm back again for another 2 years, when i find out it didn't work and the only way to come back was to buy a new one the thought that i was going to die crossed my mind :D
not in hell! it doesn't happen, thank God, LOLOLOL, i really find thousands of new things to enjoy that we don't know about when we have computers :D
that's why when i have kids, they are going to meet computers after 15, they need to know how to live first :D

i dont think i can. not because im addicted to it but mainly it is one good way of promoting business and communicating with clients without having to leave the office. requests and things needed to be dealt with are done in real time so its all convenience on my part that i cant ever miss out on the internet.

I'll probably survive without the internet but I will most certainly miss the convenience that it has brought me. Most of my interest and tasks can be found and done online. Though people say that I'm hooked and addicted, I still find ways to wean myself off the computer screen and the internet browser. There are still other media and means to accomplish some things. Institutions like media are still standing (and I guess, surviving) the advent of internet as the new phenomena of the century.

yeah. i think the computer is the future. more and more companies and sucking than ever, and more and more people are going on their own to start their own job, and they need the internet for global marketing and other communications. and when people are bored, they turn to the internet for entertainment or just to read different information.
but i still occasionally use the library, phones, etc. the computer is like an electronic office to help you get things done, as long as there is no computer problems that will slow you down.

Hii, It is really very nice question. Well to be honest everyone can be live without internet if they try. When we born in the earth do we know anything about internet? It is all about our mind set, our adoptive and frequently usage on the internet. For somebody internet is Mandatory for their business and life and for some body it may be just time passing tool. So it is purely user defined one. So i feel everyone can be live with out internet. Bye and have a good day!!

hello katie0, i don't think i can live without internet. There are so much fun in the internet, i really enjoy surfing in the internet, plus now with the new concept of earning through internet, making me more addictive. I will feel unpleasant and lack of joyfulness if there is no internet access, ha ha, sound like internet addiction and withdrawal symptoms. Furthermore internet will be the first resource i think of if i meet with any life problems, i usually search my solution through internet.
