How Do You Organize When the Internet is Down?

December 2, 2009 by Mary Emma Allen  

We’ve been having problems in our home with Internet connections.

 At first, only one of the three computers wouldn’t connect, so I could switch to a different one for my writing business.  Now nothing will connect, and my hubby has spent more than 24 hours troubleshooting.

But I must post on my blogs for my blogging commitments nearly everyday.  What are the solutions?

  • Use neighbor’s computer
  • See if our laptop will connect at her house
  • See if it will connect at the local library’s network
  • Or use a library computer where I know I can get access.
  • Use an Internet cafe, but our small town doesn’t have one.

So…I must prepare my posts so that I can, within an hour’s time, post everything, check and answer e-mail, and check Facebook, where a number of writing colleagues connect with resource material.

My solution today has been to use the library’s computer.  That’s where I am writing this now!

What have been your solutions for organizing your business when the Internet is down?

    I try and do as much as I can “offline” first, like get the emails all composed in outlook, the blog posts typed up, and THEN go the coffee shop or library to hit send on everything. I find I’m more productive at home when working, so I try to take advantage of that, and save the easy part for when I’m out
