The internet has brought us all into the information age. One could argue that in spite of the increasingly stupid things that people do, our society is relatively more informed, creative, and knowledgeable. How else would somebody have thought up Youtube, Myspace, and Bittorrent? For practically everything I loved as a kid, there is an online equivalent. File sharing replaced having to swap tapes and “dubbing” them with a dual cassette player. Myspace replaced handwriting letters to friends, family, and pen pals.
