I think in the 00's, the internet really came into its own. I mean in the 90's it was there, but never really broke out. Now our lives are almost dependent on it to survive. It's flattened the world in business and leveled the playing field. Now you don't need to be a billionaire to get a new idea started, just $8 and some time. It's also completely changed media. No longer are we told what is news, we are deciding it. Heck, we are even making it with sites such as YouTube.
I think when all is said and done, the internet explosion and the impact on our lives will be the story of the 00's.
**Another one could be cell phones and how we've gone to a culture where we are seconds from contacting anyone, anywhere at any time.
