I will need to choose a new career field. I am currently in college and my major is web design.

Alot of communication would stop, because the Internet is how people around the world are able to communicate with each other on a daily basis.

I think that the world would be in a state of crisis if there was no more internet. Many people operate online businesses and correspond with business prospects via the internet. Still, I think that it would be a refreshing change of pace. People act like they cannot live without the internet, but in reality, that is just not true. People managed to survive for centuries without internet. We can too.

Internet is not required for my job. I use it all the time though while I am there to help pass the time.

If there was no internet I would certainly be reading more books. I used to read all the time. Now, *maybe* a book or two a year.

According to former Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller the “number one national hazard” to national security would be gone.

let's see..... the population would go up considerably... the stock market would crash AGAIN! More people would need to become authors, More people would be watching the IDIOT BOX/Professional Babysitter! There would be major talk in congress about how the flow of information could get to people faster and AL GORE would have actually been president! Yes people have lived without internet before but how many businesses have you called upon lately that don't have a web site? unless they are a small mom and pop shop or the owner is older You KNOW they have a WEBSITE!

You  would continue to exist and work with what you have available.  We didn't always have internet and people co-existed just fine before all this technology.
