the Net at Home - Home with the Net
I am moving Feb 1st, so my Net situation is far from being clear. ;)
First things first: my computer is a laptop. I used a high speed modem. I am connected every time my laptop is on, and it is on almost all day.
Since Feb last year, I have been living with a roommate, so I have kept my computer in my bedroom - my only private space - most of the time. It sat on and IKEA desk - very clean, very neat, very functional, with my books, readers and all handy. That desk - and thus the laptop - was the first thing you'd run into when you'd walk into my room. I put it there because:
Whenever my roommate was away for a while, or when I needed to work on a paper that required the use of many books, I would move the laptop to the kitchen area, where a wide table gave me more space to spread my stuff.
I'd sometimes get a wireless signal from that place.
From Feb 1st on, I'll live alone in a house where there is a wireless connection. My room is in the basement.
I'll most likely end up doing most of my work upstairs, where there is more light, and a very large table.
The ubiquitous connection will be a plus:
And the fact that I will be living alone allows me more freedom in my use of space and of the net.
What does my computer/internet space say about me? That I am someone focused on efficiency, very organized, who has developed a strong online community, and who keeps in touch with friends everywhere on the planet through email.
The "ideal," flexible situation I will be living in from Feb 1st tells how important the Net has become in my life, as a working tool, socializing medium, and source of entertainment.
