What Would You Be Doing Right Now Without Internet?

Author

This is not so much a post as just a blurb and a bit hypocritical really. These days I find myself thinking about life before the internet a lot. I tend to be a bit nostalgic in many ways. It's part of how I cope with the modern realities of societal dysfunction. I suppose we all yearn for a better, simpler time.

This post is hypocritical because I'm typing this on the internet as we speak and I'm a web developer professionally. Like everyone else, I rely on technology in my personal and professional life but I do miss my "analog days." Still, I firmly believe there's value in pre-internet tech and older ways of doing things.

So again, what would you be doing without the internet today? You may spend more time with your family, call someone on the phone, read, write, play music - who knows? With the absolute trash that exists online these days, nearly anything would be better than doomscrolling. Let's do it!
