A desert island & the internet...would you get bored?

[f-fuxake]

The scenario is...

You are stranded on a desert island.
You have a computer with unlimited internet access (don't worry about the minutae of power and ISP's etc!)
You cannot be rescued.

In those circumstances would you get bored?
You would be able to interact with the world via the computer and even with family via webchat.
You could search for survival techniques.
You could keep up with news, music etc.

How would it go?

Is there any surf?

[Jem Thompson]

I would just email for help.

Oh, you said you cannot be rescued. Surely you could though, if you used your internet connection to pinpoint your location.

I think the premise of a desert island is that it's surrounded by sea. You won't a box of tissues. Because it is possible that you could get rescued, I guess it would be advisable to jizz into the foamy part of the beach where the waves lap up the shore most.

I find it worrying that you have thought this problem out!

It pays to be prepared...

I don't think I would get bored. Get bored of the internet, yes. In about 30 minutes flat, but there is so much to do using that funny old thing called "your imagination" that I couldn't get bored.

[DamianBlades]

Well since I have the net I would have an IP which means I have an address so I would just order things and in to keep myself interested lol. I can keep myself entertained with net most days so shouldnt be much of an issue. Would like to see the girl friend though.

[Jasandjules]

Do I have scuba kit and a compressor etc?

And a TV, PS3 etc. as well?

[LukeBird]

Nope.
