    Did we waste Tim Berners-Lee's moment of brilliance with donkey porn, cat videos, angry baby memes, hate talk and 99% of discussion board posts? Or has it made us all better people with the dissemination of knowledge wider and faster than could have ever been imagined a few generations ago?

    It's been a mixed blessing - I'm sure I'd be a much more productive person without it and have better eyesight.

    I don't think anyone's questioned the value of the donkey porn.

    The advent of the WorldWideWeb helps us grasp how significant the invention of the printing press must have been.

    I've actually never thought of it that way before.

    The thing about the printing press is that it took centuries before everyone knew there had been such an invention! :D
