I recall a time, many years ago, when you could be at a pub with a couple of friends and some really obscure question like whether it's a duck who has a corkscrew willie or a woodchuck, and nobody would know the answer and there was no way to find out, barring going down to the threadbare and underfunded local library to look it up in the encyclopedia, which itself was terse on facts and probably omitted ones like that for morality's sake. Now I could just whip out the black mirror and Google it.

And which conversation was more fun? Heh. I still laugh with friends from college about the arguments we would get into about crazy facts.

Yep, that's exactly the question. All of this stuff is awesome when I'm trying to get a job done, but it peels a lot of the magic away from the world.
