"}You know, when I was a kid, I really looked forward to the advent of the Internet \u2013 the Internet was the single most exciting thing that had happened in my life, and I was a fairly early adopter, too; I loved the feel and texture of internet browsers, the idea of loading pages from someplace other than local files, the concept of having a text-based user interface even whendigy difficult
The fact that the Internet involved a lot of information and wasn\u2019t like a video camera in my face, and also involved a lot of \u201cinformation\u201d I would never want to read later \u2026 well, that was pretty great, all in all
And now I\u2019m old, and I don\u2019t have that feeling anymore. Now I just see the information that\u2019s already there and I think \u201cokay,\u201d and I forget the promise of the early days. Which is pretty bad in its own right, I have to admit
