@cadey I genuinely think that Apple started a trend of dumbing technology down so far, that the masses are becoming tech illiterate.

It's not just Apple, and it's partially that more of the world is online, but I feel like when I was a teenager, everyone had an email, everyone knew how to use it, people were happily chatting on forums, making geocities/angelfire/tripod sites, and so on. Willingly learning knew things.

Now I say Browser and people go "you mean Google?". And no one tries.
