Do you even remember life before the Internet? Now that you are potentially always available,always plugged in do you think your life is easier or do you feel your life has gotten more complicated? Please explain.

Hello Mark98 my life has become more complicated, but this allows me to develope me more. I opened an eshop, 3 years ago, and I manage it today. I´ve met a lot of people since then, suppliers and sellers, I got two workers. And I am not as fatty as I was when I did all home stuff, as just cleaning, making laundry, cooking, sweeping,now I watch TV in french, I can even write to you, and to the whole mylot community. Blessings!... Dainy

dainy, it looks to me that the internet has inspired your life so much, it can be a bad thing only if you let it, I say it has been a wonderful thing for you...

I would say my life has gotten easier, sometimes I wonder what I would do if I didn't have the internet, it has brought a lot of joy to me, it actually gave me a new life in a way...its just hard when things go wrong with the computer...

It has become both. It has made life easier because it is now easier to research (which is the bulk of what I do at work) and also to do banking, and purchasing items, and booking flights, hotels, etc. However, it has made my life complicated because now I have to squeeze it into my already full schedule, and my earning online has made my day more stressful because I have to do it and my offline job together.

Hi Mark, I think simpler or complex is a state of mind, but it has definitely made me busier. We thought that with typewriters then, we can do work faster, we end up typing more than we wrote. When computer came around, the same cycle happened. We are just getting busier and busier when machines are better and better to aid us. Isn't that strange? Sometimes I do wonder where are we all rushing to? Isn't it all the same place?

The impact of Internet in my life has two fold effect. One thing which really made easy in life is communicating with people. It's now much fatser than before. The other thing is since I am an Internet addict now I experience difficulty to find time to spend with even with my family. My wife still complain that I always with computer. I have to find sometimes to her any way.

Neither. Currently, I am happy to have access to the internet. It has allowed me to make some extra money while being unemployed.
