Remember the good old days of MySpace and writing our away messages? How about accidentally stumbling upon websites meant for adults while you were still in middle school? We take a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about our first brushes with social media, and how we learned to navigate the wild west that was the early internet. Our chat is filled with nostalgia as we recall the fun of crafting HTML profiles and discuss the forgotten online gem - Mafia.
We don't just dwell on the past though. We take a hard look at the impact of technology and social media on our lives today. We debate the merits of flip phones versus smartphones, and how the internet has become an ever-present entity in our lives. From the fun of global connectivity to the serious implications of addiction and mental health, we share our thoughts and experiences. We also ponder the question - when is it the right time to introduce our kids to social media? With our tales, anecdotes, and plenty of humor, we offer an insightful perspective on the double-edged sword that is the internet. So join us, as we explore the evolution of social media - from the past, into the present and speculate on what the future might hold.
