Factually no, I do not, since I wasnβt alive then, however do I remember a time before I even knew what the internet was? Yes, and itβs odd to think about now, since I am so dependent on the internet currently.
When I was a child, I was just in my own world, playing with animal toys, action figures (I was a tom boy so I didnβt like barbie toys) And reading popular comics like the Beano and He-Man.
I was introduced to the internet via YouTube. I remember the exact day it happened, I was around my sister friends house and she was had put a song on her computer. I only had ever used computers for Word in class and playing games that were not online (Not that I knew what online meant at the time) so I didnβt know what the system she was using to play this visual fun song was, since all my songs were not visual and were CD players!
I asked what it was and she showed me it. The Crazy Frog was playing. Now considered a very old and even annoying video but back then it was new and exciting!
When I went home, I found it then played Crazy Frog on repeat. Me being on YouTube lead me to truly discover the internet.
Some people say that the internet is bad for this world but I disagree. Iβve been able to do so many online courses and sign up to so many educational sites thanks to the internet.
I do think it can be a bad thing if you use it too often but as long as you pay attention to your own reality and understand when you should take a breaks and experience real life then itβs perfectly okay!
Hell, sometimes the internet is your way into experiencing real life if you book up events and travel opportunities online π
It just makes everything so much easier in my opinion π
