What happens if the internet disappear from this world?

I used to say I'd die if internet will be gone but of course, that's only an exaggeration. It would be very hard for the people, like me, who spend most of their time on the internet. But we would definitely still be able to live without it only that life would become slower. You see, almost everything today depends on computer. So it would be difficult for us, in this age of the earth to have no internet.

When there was no internet, we never felt any need of it but as we are now accustomed with it, we feel its need at every moment of our life. So if internet disappears suddenly from the world, we will definitely miss it very much.

well every business transaction will got slow, no downloadable tutorials,no chat. that gonna be a big problem but i hope it wouldnt happen.. and if i cannot withdraw my earned money on paypal, well for me its really horrible.

It would be a global catastrophe.The effects would be extremely far reaching. The amount of daily business,communications conducted via internet is huge,the loss of which would severly disrupt and significantly slow down the companies and individuals who rely totally on internet to send and receive information,where speed is of the essence.People would have to revert back to the old ways of doing things and visit real places to shop which will be very hard on the feet.

Dear ericunion, Nowadays internet help in earning/marketing as well as for social networking and for many more. If this would disapprer from the world. We will miss a tool of social networking. Thanks

I think the internet's the most convenient way to learn a thing or two. We'd be back to being primitive, and granted going to the library is quite the chore nowadays, people will refuse to learn new things on their own.

I think there would be no much of difference as the would be like it was some 20 years back when we never had any internet then! People would use more of telephones and again start writing letters. There would be more of travelling in one's life to meet our near and dear ones! People would revert back to News Papers and Books and for the entertainment the traditional things like Cinema and Theatre would become popular again! Thus I think there won't be a big revolutionary change in our lives as normally thought by us , as this facility is recent one and i have seen the World before this was introduced for the use and lived in that happily then! Thanks !

life would definitely be different if internet where to disappear. but even if internet were to disappear, life would still keep moving on. i must admit, life would be harder, considering the fact that most people are now dependent on the use of computers and internet, but people will still continue to do what they need to do to exist. way back before internet was discovered, people were able to live happily and so i guess we could live without it too. relationships are not limited with just the internet. there are still other ways to keep in touch such as writing, calling through phone or making the effort to visit.

Life would definitely be different without the internet. After a while of getting use to not having it.It would definitely make things in a mess though since the internet has made a lot of peoples lives easier and more entertained.

that would be nice, more time for my family and love ones, more sleep, more movie to watch:P...those are the advantages but as you can see, internet plays a huge part as a mode for communication and entertainment, but it doesn't mean that we can't do anything at all without internet. We just have to go back to the old fashion way of doing things. I'll be totally sad, but I guess it would mean more time for other things as well.
