You can sit behind your computer and listen to music via a program or from the Internet and also watch performances on the Internet. There's motivation to sit at home.

When we talk about computer network exploitation, computer network attack, we're not just talking about your home PC.

They hack the routers that connect nations to the internet itself.

Immigrants use the library often. A lot of them don't have access to books and Internet at home. They seem so disconnected to the city.

Rabindranath Maharaj

Google docs and spreadsheets don't work if you're on an airplane. But it's a technical problem that is going to get solved. Eventually you will be able to work on a plane as if you are connected and, then when you get reconnected to the Internet, your computer will just synchronize with the cloud.

Eric Schmidt

When I write, I try to turn my Internet off so I can't procrastinate through the Internet, but then I just get deeply involved in whatever I have just on my computer.

I don't use the computer. But my secretary does. I want to take some computer courses because I'm interested in some of the access to some of the illegal things on the Internet. I'm just kidding.
