I don't really feel like I have too much connection with stuff in my past; but that's not to say that I won't watch a cartoon or movie or something I remember from my childhood.
Basically, I was going to write what Mrebo did; the ability to find the knowledge or show or item you're looking for instantly can be a "trap" of sorts if you find yourself getting sucked into it, but it's also a huge boon if used correctly, I was thinking the other day how, even as close to now as the 90's, if you wanted to learn about something the only real option was to find a book about it, but now we can just type a word in and find a billion sources instantly.
I think it all comes down to how you use the tools around you that defines whether it has a positive impact or a negative one, because a hammer is just a hammer, a gun is just a gun, the internet is just the internet until a person comes along and gives it a purpose.
