Without it, I wouldn't be able to communicate whatsoever with my pears and peers in Sweden, sure, we could always send letters to each other but with this technology handed to us like never before, of course it helps out and we wouldn't be able to keep up with each other. Another thing, for all you old-folks out there, complaining about how advanced todays society is, just please zipp it and keep quite instead of complaining how more efficient things are happening to the world, I'm sorry we're spoiled, just go with it.
