Toodles then awkwardly-monikered 'noughties'. Everyone's giving up blogging as Facebook and Twitter make it easier to tell the world what you found on the way home from work.

One of my favorite parts of the "We're Are All Connected" video is how Bill Nye's enthusiastic gesticulating -- coupled with the camera angle -- perfectly emulates certain Hip-Hop stylings.
