I feel the problem is not the Internet becoming crappier, it's more that our "real" experiences are becoming crappier as instead of living them, (too) many are completely indulged in documenting them.

An example is at a concert or club where more people are holding devices then dancing.

I've started carefully choosing where to take my camera with, as I'll be completely absorbed in taking photographs, later not having "real" memories of the event at all.

A classical xkcd sums up my feelings about this quite nicely: http://xkcd.com/77/
