This is a great point...maybe some of the younger members here can describe what it is like to basically not remember a time without the internet?
I actually value the time I grew up in. I'm young enough to completely be comfortable with technology and the internet, but old enough to appreciate what it was like without it. Cell phones, as well. Sometimes I really yearn for the days where I had a good excuse to be out of touch.
