Internet Communication



With the Taiwan Earthquake, 6 undersea fibre optic cables were damage causing Asia Internet Access to other region crippled.

For us, IT workers, this really slow us down, loading a page may take minutes.

Worse of all, some analyst expects the repair work may take 2-3 weeks. That is very bad.

Sometime, I think of the world with no Internet, will it be better or worse? haha. It will be take more effort to research for info and lesser sharing to be refered. But, on the other hand, the working life may not be that stressful, like 15 years ago. When computer (during the XT era) are standalone machines. At most connect to Bulletin Board using 56Kbps modem. Well, that is a dream. Everything will evolve and must evolve, changed must be embrace or risk falling behind. That is our life.
