How will you remember the 2000's

[nighthawk7000]

Well, the first decade of the 21st century is coming to a close. How will you remember these past 10 years?

I'm only 19 years old, so I don't have much to reference it to.

The good:
I think I will remember it by how much the internet exploded from an interesting and productive idea, to a collection of societies. I'll remember the creation of MxO, and all of the Mobile Technology advances.

The bad:
9/11, a couple of wars, SOE taking MxO, the Economy. Good times, good times.
