The Internet? Bah!

Interesting article, but I would disagree on a lot of points. For example much of my shopping is done on Ebay, especially for games and collectibles I can't get locally. My social life is online, every night I hop online after work to chat with friends all over the continent. I even went to visit one very good friend and had a delightful time. Furthermore, much of my news is gathered through the blogsphere, and.or yahoo news.

This was a terrific read and a nice commone sense article. I wish there was more like it.

You forget that the main reason so much overwhelming and useless information is on the web is because no one ever hung a "Don't Poop" sign. In fact, pooping has always been encouraged in a metaphorical sense, because the early Internet was viewed as a playground/toilet. Now parts of the Internet are useful, but the same people who code innovations into the Web are too full of pride to clean the poop off.
We are crapping where we eat, my friends.
