@jsit Nah...have you seen the world lately?

If so, that's probably because the internet allows you to see the world.

Maybe it's always been the same way, but we've never had such a connection worldwide before the 2000s.

They always used to say "news spreads fast" but I bet they never thought about seconds...when something happens that's noteworthy, it's near-live worldwide.

Newspapers, telephones, telegraphs, etc. Not one of them alone can do that effectively. We've replaced almost all of them with the internet.
