Internet as vital as food, water, air —millennials - Technology - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News: "In a revealing study that cements the role of new technologies in people's lives today, it was revealed that Internet now ranks along the same level as air, food and water as basic necessities for millenials.

The survey of some 2,800 college students and young professionals across 14 countries also revealed that more than half said they "could not live without the Internet," citing it as an integral part of their lives.
