How many of u on SW remember when there was no internet ?

Well it wasnt allowed to the general public that is. I understand that NASA had it back in the 70s and communicating like we are today back then. But anyway, how many of you people here remember when we did not have the internet or email. During the 80's and 90's there was no social online media. There was no Facebook. There was no Instagram crap. And no Yahoo or Gmail.
How many of you remember. 🙂

Yeap. Life was richer without these distractions.

@RubySoo Perhaps. It definitely was more manual. And creative. 🙂

@Zonuss it was richer on a personal level as the people in your life got all your attention....we didnt spread ourselves out to dozens and dozens of so called friends all over the world as we do online.

@RubySoo Is that a bad thing ? I mean we as human beings learn to adapt with the times.
Perhaps we have become so lazy with how we orchestrate our lives now with others and ourselves. 🙂

@Zonuss i use social media a lot....its a habit i cant break. I enjoy it. But i dont think it is a particularly good thing.. not for me personally. My family can all be sat in a room together watching a movie...not speaking to each other...yet all having convos with other people on fb or snapchat or wherever... or playing a game online, ordering a pizza to eat while we watch....but not a word to each other.
