INTERNET: the access to the world

Internet:
Access to the World (Wide Web)


Up until now, I had never experienced this feeling before. How much can the World Wide Web affect our lives? Like many have said, you would never know how much something means to you unless you lost it.


Having no internet access, even only for a short time, for me it’s like losing the whole world. Of course, it’s because I lose the access to the “world” (wide web). It’s like everyday that I can’t get to the internet were a prison cell and the “World” were out there. Why is it so important to us when we don’t even know of its actual existence?


Then I manage to gain an access to the “world” by going to use the public internet at uni. Sitting there using the internet to explore the world is not such an easy and comfortable. I mean, be cause of the fact that you know what it’s like to not have the internet it makes you sit there not going anywhere. It forces you to get out there to the “world” without asking yourself whether you really need it or not.


It confuses one though. Sometimes, you don’t really NEED to surf the internet. And if you have the proper access to the internet, you decide to or not to use it according to your need. When you don’t have a proper access to the internet and you have to find somewhere that you can use it, you decide to go on the internet according to whether or not you have the access, not your own need. But anyway it would run the same way again. That is, if you don’t have the proper access to the internet, you feel like you lose the world and go to find the access to it regardless of whether you need it or not.
