Agreed but as a slight tangent history is not about just recording the major events but the little ones too. Who knows what will be important in the future. Maybe that little startup that just got ignored on demo day is gonna change the world as we know it.

I agree, stay informed. But really.... How many times a day do you need to be updated on the recent developments and the current status?

In the past people would get their news once a day in the paper and then later at certain times on the radio and early TV. Is that enough to stay informed?

What has happened in the last 12 hours that I must know now instead of just catching a summary tomorrow morning?
