Before the internet, life was very different than today. Although some things have not changed like eating, other aspects of life then are unrecognizable today.
Mention Amazon back then and no-one would ever have thought about an online store. Today, the mention of Amazon will most likely make you think of the store first long before the mighty river — how things have changed.
Long before the internet, doing things like using YouTube, eBay, Google, and social media required you to get off your backside and leave the house. Shopping for gadgets would take you to the local store, watching a movie required you to go and pay at a cinema and you\’d actually meet and make friends with people in person.
Today there is a plethora of platforms and apps that let you do much of this from the comfort of your sofa. But is any of this actually an improvement? We\’ll let you be the judge of that.
Long before Google was even a glint in Sergey Brin and Larry Page\’s eyes, you had to work to find information. There used to be things called books, specifically encyclopedias, buildings with books (called a library).
Social media posts were actually posted on a real wall.
Before the internet, if you wanted to put up some information for everyone to see you actually needed to physically stick something to a wall. Yes, a hardcopy post needed to be printed, carried somewhere, and stuck to a noticeboard, wall, or another surface.
What a concept!
