It's time I confessed. Myspace. RSS feeds. Flickr. These are things I don't understand and have never used. I never thought I would get to this point. I'm behind the times. I remember when I was on the cutting edge. World Wide Web? Been there, done that. Newsgroups? Go there every day. HTML? Could write it in my sleep. But I guess I got too complacent and let things pass me by. I'm the Internet equivalent of your Grandpa. But at least I figured out this whole blog thing. I'd better start catching up.

Eh. You're not missing much. People are just finding different ways to deliver information over the Internet, but the core remains the same.
I think the problem is there was a time in the early 90's when technology was accelerating faster than demand. A whiole copr of useless internet stuff came and went so fast we started getting used to ignoring new trends.
Now the internet is driving technology and only the real deal is coming to the top.
Still ciming fast though.
Dear Sir,
There's something called the 'Internets' people have been telling me I need to look at. Is this it?
