Looking at the internet today, I think we need to lower our expectations and be realistic. At least in the US.
We are still driving 60mph on freeways and what trains we have do not travel at 300kph.
Perhaps many of us flipped out when we only had 9600 baud modems, but you could get up, brew some tea, walk the dog, or read a book while waiting for a page to load. We all had so much more patience back then.
Why do we need instant gratification with FB and other social media? Maybe, or maybe not /s.
