‍30 years of the Internet: a memorable anniversary! Before that we had no online shops, no navigation system, no social media, no smileys, no dating apps, no Google Earth, no travel portals, no online banking, no photo books, no Wikipedia, no streaming services, not a real estate scout....nor a development scout. We would no longer have a business and you would only have brightly printed paper to read, which would say what was printed and not what you are looking for. Back then, we had to use our gray brain cells to do many things that Google does for us today. We were more mobile and didn't do everything on the sofa. So, as always, there are pros and cons. I can't imagine a life "without" anymore. And you?

Sunny days yours
