I've attended business conferences and this question is often asked and the last time I heard the question asked it raised my interest to find out more.
What is isp internet?
Is my monthly internet bill too high?
What is a broadband?
Do I have the fastest internet speed currently available?
Who is the fastest internet provider?
About four years ago I left my home for 2-3 weeks for business trip/vacation and came back home to realize I didn't pay my cable bill. This is when that Oprah Winfrey "Aha Moment" happened for me. I was lost. I felt empty. I felt confused. When the customer service representative told me that a technician couldn't come reconnect my service for 48 hours my heart dropped. I pleaded with customer service. I demanded to speak with a supervisor. It was unbelievable. After speaking with the supervisor for about 25 minutes it hit me. I was going to have to live without the internet for two full days. The news was so depressing that every time they put me on hold to "see what they can do" I began thinking of the good ole days when my cell phone carrier had me in a monthly package that came with unlimited internet access. Man the nostalgia of it all is so real. So is it my cell phone carrier to blame for my panic attack not having internet for the next 48 hours? All I know is that if I wasn't going to be charged ten dollars for every GB that I use then this 48 hours wouldn't be so bad.

Sometimes when I'm bored I play the what if game with myself. One of the themes I seem to play more often than others is "What if no one around the world had access to the internet for one full year. Would life be different?"
What if most of your birthday wishes were given to you in person or by a good old fashioned phone call?
What if the friends that you don't like could not know anything about you unless you wanted to be near them?
What if you still took the same amount of pictures of yourself and kept them for yourself and couldn't post them on the internet for the world to see? Would you take the same amount of pictures? Less pictures? or More pictures??
Can your business survive without the internet?
