    What would your daily lifestyle be like if you had no computer, TV, radio?

    I really struggle to find out what people would do for all those hours.

    it would be like it was over a hundred years ago..working farms etc to make food to survive..

    would suck to lose all technology overnight...

    If you had no technology from the start, I think we'll live somehow.

    I would quite enjoy that. I long for the day when I can give up my hand phone and my email address. One of my professors managed to do that, he has no hand phone, he never watched TV, basically he enjoyed writing books and I really envied him.

    That day is not too far at least in some countries, energy crisis might lead to war and which would lead to more energy crisis.

    Not going off topic or anything... but don't you find that when people ring your home/work phone and you don't pick up they assume you are not there, and yet, when they ring your mobile and you do not answer they assume you are ignoring them. Technology has done alot of good but it has also done alot of bad too.

    I would have to say, i think life would be more genuine without technology, and on that note, if it were to go tomorrow, i would sit at home and watch tv... oh thats technology... err radio?

    I would spend each and every day with my family, supporting them in the good old fashion way :)

    That stuff has not been around all that long, I grew up in the days of no remotes and dial telephones, and we had to remember phone numbers to use all the phone booths on every corner.
    With less technology there is more work to do to survive, so there would be less free time for fun stuff like computer, TV, and radio.

    I agree. But most of the time, when i don't pick up my mobile. I am ignoring them!

    I guess I would probably be doing some gladiatorial sports.
