@oluOnline Yes, things were fun in the 1990s, exploring all the centered text and <BLINK> sites, then hating Java and the moving water, then Flash...
But I think the biggest change that came was the smartphone. Once the Internet was in the car, on the train, in classrooms and waiting rooms and ballrooms and meeting rooms and restaurants and next to beds, shit got real.
As someone says above, a tool and a weapon.
