Every day I say “long live the internet.” When I don’t say it, be sure I’m thinking it.
Imagine! Even 10-15 years ago when not every company had a website, not every product could be found online. You were left with the instructions you found in the product’s user guide. That’s what you were left with if your wonderful purchase had a guide and if you could read it.
And no, I’m not implying that you’re illiterate or uneducated. We know that these guides are usually written in very small print as if they were a contract you sign with the bank.
“You were left hanging”
Either you needed three pairs of glasses, or if you were blind, your luck was to have someone nearby.
Otherwise, “you were left hanging.” Every day I say “long live the internet.”
Maybe you managed with what you heard around you.
I think you understand that I made a reference to the fantastic access to information.
How useful the details we find while browsing are depends on the filter we pass them through.
The internet and cosmetics.
But when I put all this excitement into words, my mind stays on cosmetic products.
And I try to think about how my life would be without this “holy internet.” Here I find the digital prospectus of all purchases. That’s if the manufacturing company was kind enough to make their website accessible or it happened unintentionally.
An accessible website means that the buttons can be accessed by a little robot that knows how to read everything that appears on my screen. Or simply the manufacturer has put the text of the prospectus on the website and not just pictures of it, oh, what a good thing they’ve done.
Otherwise, how would I have known that hyaluronic acid is applied to a clean and damp face. Applied otherwise, it dries instead of hydrates and no longer fulfills its purpose.
Or how would I have known that vitamin C is not applied to the skin in combination with other acids. I don’t need a reddish face but a fresh one.
And the examples can go on endlessly.
Good internet, good and alongside the wish I’ve made before “Long live the holy internet,” I’ll allow myself to dream a little.
How about if there was a prospectus for a piece of clothing?
White shirt – saves you in almost any situation, is 100% cotton, has silver buttons, etc.
It is recommended not to be worn with leggings, I don’t know, I’m just saying.
For me, it would be genius and life-saving.
I wouldn’t have to stay on a video call every day asking someone what color X and Y are, if the materials match and how they look together, etc.
What does the internet help you with the most?
I look forward to your comments!
