      Social media has brought billions together, made connecting with your loved ones seamless, and people ignored each other just as much with newspapers or TV. Matter of fact people said the same thing about the TV and advertisements... just be good people and whatever tool you use is a plus not a minus.

      There was, in a primitive form. 1996 was the year the world wide web started to break through the mainstream. Newsgroups, email and Usenet had already been a thing for years in certain environments. Chatrooms like ICQ and MSN were growing in popularity, and Myspace was only a few years away too. There just wasn't an omnipresent internet connection like today.

      Kayla Elizabeth are you sure about that? By looking at your profile pic I can tell your not older than 30 so you would have been a kid or a baby in 1996? Because I don’t think we could really get used to outdated tech if we went back in time.

So was 94. Of course I was a child so maybe that was part of it, but yeah... I'd go back as an adult if I could.
