Do you remember what you did before you had internet access?

Question

I'm 24, so I spent most of my childhood without internet access. I remember when it got really popular and dial-up was just so awesome. It occured to me today that I can not for the life of me remember what I did with my down time before I had the internet. I mean, I played some games, hung out with friends, but that's all I can remember. Weird! The internet has taken over my life, it seems. What did YOU do before the internet?

Answer 1

I am 40 and have a BSBA in Marketing. It is so bizarre how far computers have come. I took ONE computer class in college and it was a very basic class!

My computer was down a few months ago for about three weeks. I had to mail checks for my bills, it was awful!

We certainly are spoiled with the internet.

Answer 2

Well I used to draw cartoons and spend most of the time in drawing like 6 hours and separate these hours upon 2 days and I used to watch TV for long times and also I used to talk to my friends at phone but now the IM took over.. but after I got the Internet connection I forgot all of these stuff and I spend most of the time using the Internet and am afraid that I might lost my drawing hobby cuz I don't seem like I can draw anything and also I was writing stories but I lost the Passion to it!!! Kinda weird isn't it??
