Since last month we have all been in lockdown due to the global pandemic,
which we all know is the novel Coronavirus or COVID-19. It started from Wuhan,
China, and continued to grow until a significant part of the world at present
faced an extremely considerable amount of deaths and affected victims as well,
resulting in which there is the majority global shutdown and business owners finding new ways to grow business in pandemic.
Speaking of this, what pops in all our minds is what does everyone does during the entire day at home? How do they keep themselves productive? This quarantine has made us all realize how long 24 hours can be. It's more like
trying to pass 1440 minutes and not just 24 hours!
The internet has been a crucial source for humanity to make their daily lives more comfortable, faster, and smarter. When we say technology, the first thing
that comes to our minds is the internet.
From collecting the ingredients to make a dish to shopping for those
ingredients, from making the dish and selling it online, from receiving the
payment and uploading the picture of the food presentation, the internet has
likewise captured all the professions.
Before this quarantine, we were using the internet for more productive purposes and less for entertainment purposes. This keeps the point about what we are going to talk about- how this quarantine and COVID-19 has changed our
internet usage.
How the Coronavirus has Changed Internet Use Globally
1. Laptops over phones, Internet above all
We all have been working from home for quite more than a month now. This ideally keeps us hooked to the laptop for like 8-10 hours or more. Thus fluid internet connection is a must. And if you have any issues then

is what you should refer to. And when it comes to video conference and video calling, several people from the office or maybe a family or friends video call has several people to be seen, which makes a laptop a better choice than a phone.
Even in the case of movies and series that keep our entertainment part
satisfied, it is noticed that people prefer laptops more.
Now what remains a constant in any of these gadgets is our internet. We might
use data for our phones, but when it comes to a wifi connection, people
staying in a family of say four people each one having one device connected,
it decreases the speed of the bandwidth.
This is just a common problem we have been experiencing or hearing. But still,
the internet remains the bark of all branches.
2. The news? The Internet!
Due to the global inactivity, the news has COVID-19 as the center of attraction. For a change, there might be a billionaire donating a million
dollars for the hospital equipment, a celebrity feeding 500 people every day,
another star doing the dishes and delivering some motivational and encouraging
lines, a busy businessman sharing about how he has missed his family and what the happiness he is getting by spending time with them rather than focusing on
grow the company's turnover to Arabs.
Everyone is desperate to walk out of their houses now. Now and then, we keep checking the news to see if there has been a miracle, and the lockdown has finally been suspended. But unfortunately, to our disappointment, it was only getting worse a few days back, which again makes me curious to know about who did what as the spread increased? News has legitimately kept us hooked on it.
The matter of fact is this is also the internet's blessing that we are aware of every moment's happening. Positive or negative, small or big, past or present, the internet has everything to surf.
3. Social Media
Complete body workout or not, the only body part that we exercise daily and A
LOT is our fingers. A majority of the people are spending their time on the phone.
Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, YouTube, and other social media apps have gathered all the attention. News, friends updates, relatives updates,
decor, food, clothing, DIY, quotes, blogs, and whatnot!
Everything is available on the internet from scratch. Staying in touch with
our friends or relatives is very important, and for sure it is fun.
No doubt this would not be possible without the internet.
Conclusion:
So far, we have seen all the reasons to genuinely stick on to the internet.
They may say there is not any other work to do, any other choice rather than doing things online, to do something creative, we need ideas and help, which again comes from the internet. To learn something new, which still is internet dependent.
The online courses and training have as well diverted a large amount of traffic towards their sites and apps. The internet is now the ultimate source
to do, know, and show your things off.
The last note we can give about the internet is that it is not only used for just passing your time, but it has also become a source of productivity. You as a reader and I was a writer, we are utilizing our time doing and knowing
something exciting and vital.
The internet is beyond our limits. It depends upon the person how they use it.
They can put it to work and utilize this time to be productive, or they can
just lay back in the bed and scroll through some unnecessary things.
But for sure, without the internet lives could have been better a few of them
say, but I believe we are living our best lives using it correctly.
