We moved house in Feb this year and it was only in september that we had internet at home again. However we both have phones that we could get the internet on and we both had internet access at work, so even tho we did live without we didn't!

I work from home and rely on the internet for connection to the corporate network. Without internet access I would have to move or worse start commuting to an office! So no, I cannot live without it.

Philosophically yes I wish I could, and no TV or phone or anything.

And live in a bucolic idyll.

Which these days (in the reality of developed countries) requires us to be special people or have **** loads of money.

I hate TV, but I will admit to being a Net Addict.

I am on a couple of forums, Facebook, B3ta and Sickipedia.

I met the love of my life over the internet and actually knew her for about three years before we met or even considered falling in love. I met my last Boyfriend on line and have even used those tacky singles sites for a while before leaving them in disgust when I realised that most of them are filled with charmless, self deluding, ugly idiots who only talk to girls in the hope of a seagull!

I love the internet, but most of all I love the Org, which makes the internet a nice place to be.
Could I live with out the net? Yes.
Would I want to live with out the internet? No way Dudes.

I am sure that you are only on the tasteful ones and are in fact a charming, handsome and intellectual gentleman with honourable intent.

I used Matchdotcom and was barraged with filthy e-mails from low life scum who seemed to think that they could "cure me" from my interest in girls. I did state on my profile that I was bisexual though. Thankfully, Gaydar Girls exists and it is a fabulous site for nice young ladies (and a few terrifying ones!).
