[Today's Lisa ZateTopic] What you can and cannot do online


 Regardless of the quality, what I thought was saved in such a time was that there was so much things we can do online. Twenty years ago, when I went abroad, it was hard to make one call to Japan, so I bought a credit card for international calls first, registered a long number combination, and it wasn't very long. It was like listening to only the voice as soon as possible. But now it's a world where you can connect from your PC or mobile phone almost anywhere, take a picture and send it immediately, don't worry about the arrival of mail that took a week to 10 days, and you can do it with the touch of a button.

What you can do online, classes, meetings, lessons, linguistics, music performances, drinking parties, seeing old friends, and even online theme parks, online zoos, online kindergartens, online screenings, online training, online travel, etc. Almost anything.

What a useful tool that you can work with, no matter where you are in the world, regardless of age or gender. If IT hadn't developed like this yet and the corona was happening, there was a lot of turmoil, time dilation, the whole process stopped, and we had to wait for a little bit of information from the media. It would have been really difficult to connect with people abroad, with full of the phone lines, almost completely isolated, unable to meet people, and not knowing what was really happening around the world. One expert also said that "lonely deaths and suicides would have increased." That may be true. Some had lost their job and was in a state of how they could live in the future, so they didn't know who would help including the government.

Many companies are now able to do their jobs completely from home. The staff can work wherever they like. The motive given by this corona may be changing drastically with the times.
