Caught in a Virtual world

A computer can do things to you. Wasting long hours just manipulating files, playing games, surfing the net, watching movies, listening to music,etc has made computer our one and only center of entertainment in the leisure time. Leave that alone, even if you consider the IT jobs which employs millions of people,they need to do work on a computer making programs, softwares, trouble shooting etc.So for these people, computer has become an integral part of life.Let me hypothesise the long term effects of the computers.

• The number of obese people will increase, owing to the sedentary lifestlye thanks to the computers
• The number of people wearing glasses will increase
• People will be more worried about getting a computer fixed rather than getting their child admitted to school.
• The price of computer will be taken more seriously than the price of petrol
  
• Census will be taken online
• The Olympics will be played online
• Terrorists will destroy files by creating a suicide file
• The main headlines in the news will be like:
• " A computer found unplugged at an internet cafe"
• "Two computers caught touching each others screen"
  

• There will be no more newspapers circulated beacuse people will get so much used to the computers that reading newspaper will be considered obsolete.
• With younger and younger people using computers, evolution will have its effects and time will come when the first thing a child needs to be shown is a computer screen image of his /her parents who otherwise will be unrecognisable.
• Parties will be conducted online with people from all around the world
• People will visit places only through computer, capturing the beauty of that place, only differece it being a virtual world.
