I remember growing up without internet. And then suddenly it is here. I don't remember and evolution in the form of internet or anything like that.
I do remember that once, during my first experiences with the internet, I felt the world had become a smaller place, since in a matter of seconds I could be talking to someone half way across the planet ... just like that ... it was amazing.
Now internet is something we take for granted, and see as routine to surf it. Shows you how quickly we can get accustomed to something, just think how much we would miss it if it just stopped existing one day ... there are probably like a gazillion e-mails going back and forth every hour of every day ... as of this moment suddenly being without internet would be like going back to the stone age ... I guess.
I bought my first computer because of games ! Now I have them because I can't work without them. Such luxury ... consider the fact that maybe 50% of the world population has access to the internet, we're spolied !!
