What did we do before the internet

In the recent weeks I have been looking into finding a way of making some extra cash. What I have really found is an even greater appreciation for the Internet. I remember going through high school and doing research on a card catalogue to find books that could be relevant to the subject we were supposed to be writing about. Well now as I do research on possible money making ideas, I literally haven't even picked up a piece of paper. All my curiosities have been fulfilled with a little searching on the Internet. Such a powerful tool if you just know how to ask the right questions. So my thought on this subject simply matches my title. WHAT DID WE DO BEFORE THE INTERNET?
