What If They Turned Off the Internet? 511

theodp writes "It's the not-too-distant future. They've turned off the Internet. After the riots have settled down and the withdrawal symptoms have faded, how would you cope? Cracked.com asked readers to Photoshop what life would be like in an Internet-addicted society learning to cope without it. Better hope it never happens, or be prepared for dry-erase message boards, carrier pigeon-powered Twitter, block-long lines to get into adult video shops, door-to-door Rickrolling, Lolcats on Broadway, and $199.99 CDs."

Comment Re:Nokia E70 bad review? (Score 1) 374

I own an E70 and an iPhone.

The iPhone is absolutely superior watching stuff (Photos, Video, Music, the Web), but....

The E70 is absolutely superior writing. The keyboard is really nice, ssh is fast etc. The gmail app is very nice etc etc...

However, I had two major problems with it (and that is why I bought the iPhone). (i) The browser needs to much memory, it always crashes after a few steps. So I needed to use opera mini. (ii) The music player is bad. For instance when I restarted it did not remember where in a song (or more likely a long podcast) I stopped. So I had to scroll and remember this myself.
