Anyone else think the Internet is a bit too easy?

You liked the internet before it was cool. Congratulations, e-hipster.

I don't really get why the fact that more people are capable of using the internet is a bad thing.

I think I kinda get where you're coming from, it's crazy to think about how far we've come but it's all been for the better.

Not quite sure why you're getting so much venom spit at you in this thread.

Whenever I find the internet to be too easy, I start using search engines like Lycos and Altavista. 
 
If you're interested, check out my Angelfire page for my thoughts on the internet.

I guess I understand what you mean. Like "Oh no they broke into our secret club". The internet has evolved into an amazing form of communication; meaning that accesibilty does nothing but help our general society for finding news and educating themselves.

I dont think internet is too easy. I dated her once. She was not going to go back home with me. It wasn't till after the tenth date when I proposed. Finally on honeymoon. She's not easy. I'm sorry maybe I should say something about your topic.... Only geniuses like you and me should use it! But I think I spelled geniuses wrong..... No it shouldnt be more difficult.

Modern internet is for chumps, I say we all go back to file sharing on MIRC channels.

Man... MIRC, now that's some damn internet right there.

Read a youtube comment section recently?

@vikingdeath1: I wish I knew more about how the internet actually worked. I'm fascinated by the pre-internet world of BBSs and the prevalence of IRC channels. I see your point.

I was watching "Siskel & Ebert: The Tarantino Generation" this week. At the start of this clip, they cut to Roger Ebert surfing the World Wide Web. It's so hilariously primitive, I had almost forgotten it used to look like that in the nineties.

Not that easy IMO. It took me three continues to beat the Internet, but the replay value has me hopelessly hooked.

Yeah, usability is the bane of technology. The internet, as with all things, was so much better when it was a complete pain in the ass. It's almost as bad as the internal combustion engine... who wants to travel without the risks associated with long-distance carriage or horse riding? If I'm not going to catch dysentery now and then, what's the point? And don't even get me started on modern medicine... back in my day, ALL surgeries were life-threatening, and even if you survived, the experience would just about guarantee a lifetime of PTSD and horrible nightmares. Now, these namby-pamby surgeons use "anesthesia" and "sterile instruments"... pah! Whiskey is my anesthesia, and a rusted saw is sterile enough for anybody!
