Online Means World 🌍

Hi friend!

 

Two days ago we experienced, for a few excruciating hours, how our lives would look like without our favourite Social Media. Truly horrifying picture 😉

On one hand people spend too much time on the Internet, but on the other, our whole economy exists mostly in the online world. You can see how much impact it has by just looking at the damage and losses caused by the 6 hour long crash of only three websites/communicators. Spoiler alert: It was 7 billion $ for Zuckerberg.
