The Days Without Network

At these days, school network seems to break down. No, it actually have broken down. a few student can access the Internet. Most of students just waiting for network. If you can access the Internet, nothing can prove how long you can be online, maybe 15 minutes, maybe 1 hours and maybe less than 1 minutes. All of students are angry. The forum of our university is full of threads about network.

I am so helpless that I can not surf the Internet. I depend on Internet so much. Not only I chat with my friends on QQ, I put many things on the Internet. I save my pictures on Picasa web album. I write a blog post on Blogger. I send a e-mail on Gmail. I put my documents and spreadsheets on Google Docs. I also need to write a tweet on twitter. I like to listen to the music on Google Music or Xiami. Sometimes I watch the movies on Youku and Tudou. I also like to watch TV on sopcast. Youtube is a very good video-sharing website, Nevertheless, Chinese government is still blocking Youtube.

Now I am just able to get the latest information from my cellphone. I check my e-mail inbox update and twitter update. Mobile network is so slow in China. If you have to connect to the Internet, you can try to use GPRS/EDGE network. But if you have do much thing on Internet, I suggest you should have a static bandwidth connection. Without network，your life become worse and worse. Without network, nothing can be done by me.

Sometimes, I am so worried about cloud computing. I am Not only worried about security of data, but also I am worried about if Internet was cut down, how can we do our work. As we know, Security is the most important topic. But if bandwidth breaks down like my university, the job will break down too. How can we continue to do our job? In our local machine, noting will be stored even though here is the most important data. In the meanwhile, we can not entertain myself because all the music and movies and photo are saved on the public cloud. You must have connection to bring them back. Of course, if you pay enough money for private cloud, you can configure a VPN connection to the cloud. This method can make sure that you can connnect to the server.

The days without network are so boring and so long. I just hope these days go by soon. I can not lost the Internet.
