Why I love the internet
Great post by somethingchanged:
Reading this is a good way to remind yourself why the Internet became an important part of your life.
Economist Tyler Cowen writes:
In a typical day, I might write two tweets, peruse 15 blogs […] and watch James Brown dance on YouTube. If it’s a really fun day, I’ll read more blogs, scour the Web for movie reviews, browse eBay, Google myself, and spend more...
