Instead of email, we would actually have to make phone calls to our friends, or send them a handwritten letter.
Porn would be delivered in brown paper envelopes.
We would need to buy real newspapers, have a whole cupboard taken up with phone books and use street directories.
Spam would once again be revolting meat in a can.
How would we know where to go when in need of a sex change or penis enlargement?
Encyclopedia sales reps would be back in business.
Parts of our language would become obsolete, as there would be no need to tell someone to 'Google it', and we wouldn't be 'Twittering' or 'Blogging'.
Ah, I love the Internet...

I too love the internet! With my trusty iphone I am never without it. If for some reason I can't get onto twitter, or check blogs, I feel a sense of immediate disconnection... which I guess is sad in a way. But then again, with the internet I am able to keep in constant contact with friends and family across the world, and interstate and a click of a button. I can also find out where I am when I get lost!
So, I'm with you! Ah, I love the internet!
