I was late to the party (but with my country’s tardiness in anything technology, it was pretty much the same) as I started around 2010, but the one nice thing I do remember was how easy it was to find random blogs or forums about your subject of interest. Even though I was connected for only an hour or so a day, information was readily available although sparse. Now, we have more data, but it feels more like a humid jungle full of tarpits and biting insects. Even corporate sites have the slimy feeling you’d associate with shady sites that wanted you to update flash.
