Remember 2004? That was quite a year! This was right before YouTube would launch, and we were so excited about what the internet was and what it would turn into.

I like to think that if you grew up in the 2000s, and you don’t know a reality other than when the internet existed, you’re probably going to be smarter than any generation before or after.
Why?
Because you’re always looking up new information to beat your friends to the punch. That just doesn’t happen with today’s kids.
Prove me wrong Generation Z!
