Although I do do most of things pictured 15 years ago still today, I do find myself using my computer for these same things more often. If I miss picking up my papers then I undoubtedly check the net for the news, etc.
Good post though, shows the change that's happened. Do you think we'll continue to delve deeper in to the cyber world? There's no question in my mind we will, purely because of that 'ease' factor.
