2007: The iPhone<br />

Until 2007, using anything other than a computer to ac<strong>ce</strong>ss the Internet was<br />

cumbersome, expensive and uncommon. Then came the iPhone. The iPhone of<br />

course wasn't the first phone that integrated email, or even the first phone that let<br />

users ac<strong>ce</strong>ss the Web, but it was the first platform that provided a mobile Web<br />

experien<strong>ce</strong> that closely matched surfing on a computer. With well over 20 million<br />

iPhones sold worldwide, and competing platforms like Android, webOS and<br />

Blackberry further refining the browsing experien<strong>ce</strong>, surfing the Web on a phone is<br />

the rule, rather than the ex<strong>ce</strong>ption.<br />

Wow, I hope that didn't make the Internet feel old! Besides, age is just a number,<br />

and other than getting a little gray around the temples, you can hardly tell. Plus,<br />

sin<strong>ce</strong> 40 is the new 30 anyways--something tells me the Web still has plenty of<br />

surprises for us.<br />
