Doing research papers are mega easy now. I remember having to go to a library and borrowing books after books to get information about a certain topic. And I’m unlucky moments, the book you want has been rented out. The fact they have digital libraries now blows my mind. I graduated from high school when Floppy Discs were becoming less frequent and CDs were the new in. I went on limewire in high school to burn CDs and pray I didn’t accidentally downloaded a virus on my parents computer. I remember my brother ruined a bunch of my dad’s tapes by tangling the rope. It was impossible to get a pencil to reel it back together. My brother was a wittle baby still. I remember getting a Blackberry phone when I finally turned 15! That would have been the cool, but the keyboard slide was the new in and I just had to get one. I got an LG Slide that had its first full keyboard!! Faster to text. I had a ringtone of the song I recorded from the radio. Like in 2017, I blinked and BAMMMMM technology felt so new that I’m still tryna catch up. And it’s gotten more advanced since. I love how easy it is! Gen Alpha is going to be hella blessed with technology at their fingertips

Lol, I can remember having to do a project for school and all I had was one book the teacher supplied. A only later did she realise none of us could do any research beyond that. The Library was closed for fumigation! and it would not be open till after the project was supposed to be in. Now I help my brother's 8 year old learn how to navigate the computer for quizes they have to complete for school using the computer. As for maps I still have a few old paper ones about. When you have no signal, you need them. Or like me it cost you back even in about 2010 to access the maps and mobile dater was crazy expensive. Even still now. Was cheaper to have a paper map. Also meant you learned the layout of the town, when doing things like deliveries or just general navigation to find things. Unlike these days, when many don't have thier phone telling them where to go, they have no clue how to get there.

00’s kids had mostly the same struggles. I remember being a kid and my Father pulling out the map from his glove compartment. We thought about getting a fancy GPS.

I remember this one time when I was a kid my family and I were using the Internet for a bit, I forgot the reasoning, the cops showed up at the house saying that my grandpa, my mom's dad, was trying to call my mom and thought something bad happened to us.

I'm glad we don't have phone plugged into our houses anymore. My Dad would yell at my friends when they called or boys. Granted, it was because we had random strangers prank call the house, but my friends wouldn't do that. Even when I answered, my Dad would get on the other phone, that was connected to the phone I was on with my bestie and told her to go away. Don't miss those days at all.
