Well yes, you can write about anything. It is plain and easy. But it's also a bit like talking. Talking is very easy and something that we start doing since we are 1 or 2 years of age. That must mean decades of practice but that's no guarantee that we can be a good talker or a popular talker. I think there's a method to it. Atleast I think I have a method.

you’re absolutely right.. The important thing is the creativity and the expression of that creativity.. Your post also tells us how scripts are written for movies.. Basically, you can write a story about anything…. Even not being able to write!

So did you finally got to know the root of the problem ?
Who was the service provider ? (A bit curious to know them;-)

I’m a bit addicted to the internet and I think that’s perfectly all right. We’ve got used to using many such things in life. What about cars and bikes? What about TELEVISION and MOVIES? Anything can stop and we can’t do much about them when it happens. It will be a problem if we can’t deal with its shortage or non-availability. See, I’ve not even gone to the net cafe.
As you said, life will move on. As long as one’s alive, life keeps moving on. Even today, some people live without these things and I don’t think they are/feel deprived.
When the US-Iraq war happened, I used wonder what some of those survivors did? They must have lost their lifestyle. But then something else becomes the priority. Probably, survival over lifestyle!
Okay now, let me step back a bit to see where I started. I just wrote some light stuff to see if my creative solution worked. It has worked beautifully. Both system testing and user testing are over now.

Vijayyyyy…
This post would have been more interesting and elaborative if it was named as “Life without Internet” or sort of… as most of us born and brought up without internet, cell, ipod’s/digital world & contemporary life style. So, anytime one should always be prepared to imbibe how we were and should not so addictive & end up getting frustrated, irritated. Well, the exchange of updated information will be delayed at office/ to home/among friends but we should realize that survival was there since ages and people are successful without these refined services.
It’s weird (including me) to say I can live without internet as it brought so many good things and obviously everyone will be bored, frustrated & irritated without these as the incentive to stay up to date will be gone and the comfort life of a mouse click away to our daily wants either shopping/paying bills/booking/business exchange/chatting/emails/googling will be miserable but I think certainly it gives ‘Peace of mind’ and very refreshing from our daily busy life especially from usual stinkering emails from client/manager haaa… will be no more…..
Just a thought, what if, If there is war all of sudden and all these existing life style is no more…. It will be a shock for a while but I think the world would go on just as it was always, as if there was no internet today. For generations we got on just fine without it as Internet in India is a 10-15 years old kid and though it almost conquered our daily life it’s not a desperate need, all in all it’s just another sophisticated human want and not a need for survival. I believe life without a ‘phone’ will be more miserable than internet. All I can say be prepared and don’t addictive.
