A Recap of 2000:

People celebrated the new Millennium.

The Y2K Bug Hype ended.

Al Gore and George W. Bush ran for presidency, Bush won depsite losing the popular vote.

The dot com industry was at its peak.

Elian Gonzalez was returned to Cuba.

The Lakers won the NBA Finals.

The Supreme Court ruled that Microsoft was a monopoly.

America Online bought Time Warner.

Basically, 2000 was pretty similar to today. Cell phones weren’t really that popular then, iPods were non-existant. To log onto the internet most people had to use dial-up, and gas prices were a little over a dollar.

Yea, it was way different in 2000.

Well for me it was.. i was 7 years younger…

I don’t know about the rest of you.

But anyway for generally everything about safer and easier…. I Don’t think so. Everything has pretty much been the same since 2000.

Barely anyone had cell phones or digital cameras. No MySpace or Facebook. AIM was the ****. Safer…nah I don’t think so. Easier…no. I think cell phones, even though they can be annoying, make things a lot easier now. You can meet up with people easier, talk to people you might have a crush on easier, do your own thing and your parents won’t worry as much, etc.
