NO Shafagat.  Why do I want to work so hard?  For myself, my family and extended family, friends, my community, country and to honor God.

But at least you are kind enough to provide a computer to interact with those people online.  What I want to say is that SUCCESS IS HOLLOW UNLESS WE GET IT HONESTLY, AND it brings good for OTHERS besides ourselves.

This is our life....

Enjoy cyber world

I prefer my real life on the inhabited island, though sometimes when I look at young people, I start to think that they are in a desert: they are able to see only the screens of their gadgets without any break (even for meals), they live only in Internet, so your hypothetical model, dear Shafagat, turns into а sad reality here.

The internet has embraced the story ofBrendon Grimshaw over the past couple of weeks. Grimshaw did what so many dream of doing: he bought an island. He purchased Moyenne Island in the Indian Ocean in 1964 for $20,000, quit his job in 1973 to move there, and spent the past 40 years developing it into a paradise, cultivating and protecting flora and fauna native to the Seychelles. Now 86, Grimshaw's island is worth millions to developers, but he is determined that it remain a nature preserve after his death.

There are still many abandoned and uninhabited islands around the world. Why isn't there anyone living on them? After all, 270 people live on Tristan de Cunha, which is 2430 kilometers from the next inhabited island! The reasons islands remain uninhabited are financial, political, environmental, or religious -or a combination of those reasons.

Dear @Barbara Sawicka  & @Miranda Yeoh,

Good response Prof Fateh

Dear @Fateh Mebarek-Oudina,

Thank you very much for interesting opinion.

Best regards, Shafagat

Dear  @Olga Laguta,

Thank you for interesting answer.

Regards, Shafagat

Intersting . Shafagat wants to test the efficacy of computer world in isolated desert  islands. Hopefully , it will be a different  kind of adventure to work with?

No thanks! .Where I love is home, home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.

I am happy in my beautiful homeland where I am with my family, relatives and close friends and can serve my nation.

Dear  @Anoop Kumar Srivastava,

Nobody tried, it was interesting.

Regards, Shafagat

I do not want to live on a desert island only with a computer. I like to live together with other humans even if there are cumbersome relationships. By the way, the phrase "life on a desert island" is used to mean "miserable life (without friends)" in the following quote:

"True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island... to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing." —Baltasar Gracian

Dear Tatsuo Tabata,

Thank you very much for opinion.

Your opinion is appreciated.

Best regards, Shafagat

Computing is virtual and not real. Being in touch with others when lost into a non-inhabited place, may be to reassure our loved ones that one is still alive elsewhere, aka with situations in different planet or space etc.,

Dear Colleagues,

Good Day,

I will live as simple as I can, just like the "Bedouins/ Nomads". I need no for computer/s there at all!!! even if there is a computer for use!!!!

I do not want to be on an island with just a computer on a desert island . No internet connection to the internet, if it is connected; first thing to do is trying to reach a real person to get me out of the island. I think it is not humankindish. Also a computer is not an essential need for humanbeing. Not healty.

Regards, Selim

Life with a computer can be tedious even in very populated continents especially if you tend to live in the virtual world. Let alone in a desert island !!!

We are real and computer may drag you in virtual world. I prefer harmony so would not like to change from real to virtual. It is OKAY to work for few hours in virtual world but not longer time.

Does electricity exist there? Is it connected to Internet? Then i hope we can

As Kamisetti said, with the preconditions he posed: existence of a connection to internet, which assumes

the existence of electricity (the other precondition), we could communicate with civilization and had a possibility of living in the desert island.

Dear @César Rodrigues,

Kamisetti  said an interesting idea.

Thank you for opinion.

Regards, Shafagat

for me  - it would ba a perfect situation, please give me the address

That's not a very good idea. I think a normal person would become as soon abnormal person.

Indeed, many do not even need a desert island :-)) The PC is enough.

How long I have to stay there, for a day, couple of days or more? You being a plural form can I take some of my friends or family members? 

I would learn how to communicate with other means, as understanding the stars, the water of the ocean, the birds, etc.

For a week with my associates is perfectly OK.. I will love to be there.

This will be just a trip for a lifestyle change where the man might spend a day or a week I do not think he needs a computer, but spend life with a computer would be a kind of death light such as eating one type of food so you get the death ???

First I will ask whether this is a short trip with mission e.g. ethnography qualitative research, certain scientific study etc.  If this is the case I will find times & resources to participate.  If this is a kind of permanent "posting" or "migration" to the deserted island I will think twice & evaluate whether it is in alignment with my personal goals.

I would try it for two weeks if dear @Shafaqat also provides a magic wand (like her last question).

I do not need a computer for this period as I will study stars with my friend @Vilemar and we will search for meaning of life in solitude :)

Best regards

Dear Raja Rajeswari Kamisetti,

you can find smth like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVa6knXCoGg  

and have a free electricity :). 

Maybe we should try that option of developing that area, as India is already more densely populated. Setting up a base camp and then developing an organized country like Singapore would be nice.

Reminds me of Laurel + Hardy's "Utopia": They inherited an island in the South Pacific and thought it would be good place to avoid taxes. They advertised it as such and were invaded by an army of people. Soon they lost their paradise.

It would be a good place to go to learn how to find food and water. Especially for young city people who think food grow endlessly at the back of grocery stores!

If this is an exercise in fantasy, I will take a temporary reprieve and change my computer for fishing gear. I'm off to the Mediterranean to some sweet spot near Italy or Greece. Second choice, off the coast of Philippines with mangoes, papaya, and coconut. I'll see you all later.  

This sounds to me like Robinson Crusoe fantasy brought to the Internet Age. So I would use the computer to look for someone to rescue me before the cannibals appear. 

Fantastic !!!! No problem as far as the desert island is surrounded by .... mermaids !! By the way, dear José, the last cannibal was eaten yesterday on that island. No fear !!

I prefer my real life on the inhabited island because is there keep silence in always but the computer on a desert island? that is not enough for the life and there is no connection with the real life.

Even now we are living like in desert. Wherever you go, people are hiding their face within their mobile. No-one is willing to live in the present - living some imaginary world occupied by some virtual network. 

I do not think that this question is far from reality. Many persons around the world live in nearly a desert island in a recluse way & many persons are "tied" with iphones, ipads, tablets, PCs… most of the time. Socializing, which is a nice attitude, is diminishing as time goes by.

The trouble is that there are young persons who excel in communications through the internet but fail to do so in a face to face conversation. Some years ago, I used to give oral exams to students in practical chemistry courses but they asked me afterwards "intensely" to stop that & to confine exams to written ones.

Dear Colleagues,

Good Day,

"7 Amazing Qualities Of People Who Are Happy Being Alone

Dear Colin James III,

it's so interesting:  the monastic codex of St Anthony and... a computer! Do you know, there are the Nothern monastic islands Solovki and Valaam with cenobitic monasteries, and the monks there are the computer users? My family visited these islands in 2003. Now they have the very beautiful sites:

http://solovki-monastyr.ru/spp/andreevskij-skit/

http://valaam.ru/media/  .   

that would be really interesting to finish the work and to relax

The idea is good, but dangerous. So it is possible to die )) )))

Dear Shafagat

Is it a ROBOT competent enough to provide me everything I need, like a GENNIE!

Israr

I wouldn't want to be anywhere without my computer.  I can get up and go do things but afterwards I want to  get onto my computer and work on my websites and other research that I can't do without the computer.  This weekend there was some sort of glitch at the computer center and for the whole weekend my server was invisible and I couldn't even get in remotely to continue my work.  So I consoled myself by baking too many cookies, always a dangerous thing to do. 

Oh wait, is there electricity on that island?

Still again !! YES !! as far as the island is surrounded by Mermaids !!
