Dude, you don't know enough japanese chicks or go to enough raves clearly.
That aside it's a different type of era, whether it's better I'm not sure. I grew up with it, it's my world and I enjoy the pace and chaos, I've embraced the unpredictability, the lack of security, things go up and down you've just gotta ride the waves.
I *love* the way I can, at a whim, fly out of the country to a remote destination, jack onto a wifi hub in the airport, global roaming kicks on the phone and suddenly I'm reconnected to all my primary vectors of communication in under 5 minutes. I love the way I can dig up information on almost any topic in a similar amount of time, research individuals, companies, topics, anything. I love the way I can buy fair trade coffee, sushi, iranian safron and order pizza over the web. Good with the bad I guess. I also like the way my phone has an off switch.
Sometimes I think the answer to freedom and happiness in the modern age is not to work for a normal company, they all bite ass, just to varying degrees. If you're good enough they come to you, then it's a fun game.
