The internet is nothing without electricity. The internet ruined my life with criminals/spammers/scammers lurking/posting as “friends” or “bloggers”. The computers too destroyed many jobs. I hate the internet and computer: it’s impersonal and artificial and it is invasive of privacy and filled with propaganda of all sorts through social media and other broadcasting methods, such as televisions, satellites, films, videos, audios and radios.
Electricity is no more important than the internet. While electricity does provide modern day convenience, people who know how to “rough it” in the wild and be free with nature, need no electricity to survive. Whoever or whatever is controlling how everyone/thing must live is foreign to this world. Man and pigs can live together in harmony but with electricity, the speedy processing of death leaves me in awe — from guns to slaughterhouse and other mechanisms meant to create yet in the end destroys human ingenuity and survival skills.
Blah!

With the passing of Steve Jobs yesterday, the web is filled with remembrances of a pioneer and industry legend. It’s a sad day indeed. But it’s also a good day to look back and consider the history of innovation. And how all the inventions and creations of the last 100 years have impacted us.
As a specific topic to write about: How would you compare the importance of electricity with the invention of the internet? or the cell phone? Can this kind of comparison be made? If you had to lose one of these inventions, which would you keep? And why?
