Time on the internet to 10 years ago

Postby wendy » 05 Oct 2015, 07:49

I was wondering if you spend less time on the internet than you used to do?
I know I dont switch on so much and over 13 years ago we had dial up.
Now there seems too many other things to do rather than use the internet. Once it was fascinating and addictive so I could not switch it off, but the novelty seems to have worn off.
What do you think?

I still spend quite a bit of time on the internet, as I spend more time in the house looking after my mum.

I spend less time on internet in the summer and I have noticed my eye sight is better in the summer months.

I spend less time other than chill not much else interests me I feel like it is information overload. I love the ease of shopping but unless I need to look something else up i am too busy doing things rather than surfing.

I don't know what I would do with little though. When the Internet is down you suddenly realised how much you rely on it being there even if you don't surf as much.

Exactly Wendy. I lo e 3 the fact that it is so easy to keep in contact with my sister and nephew in new Zealand.

For carers this is a god send too,don't know what I would have done without you all. I have been so lucky ky go make friends with some very special people that I would never have got to meet in preInternet days.

so I love the Web for this
