Every generation looks back at its youthful period with nostalgia; everything was better when we were kids and nobody can convince me otherwise! However, there’s something about my generation, the early millennials, that makes us special. We grew up in a time of unprecedented technological change; for example, we were born with the cassette, the CD came and went (don’t even get me started on the Minidisc), then it was Mp3, iTunes, and finally Spotify. All in the space of a few years!
The technology that kids now take for granted was refined over the years through our experiences. We eventually got the internet but we needed to wait for it to connect. We had phones, but they were connected to our houses until Nokia came along with SMS and snake. Oh, and we had something similar to Netflix too, but you had to go to rent a tape or DVD at the videostore. Looking back, these things might seem incredibly basic and inconvenient now, but we loved them! And I’ll take my Nirvana/Soundgarden/Faith No More mixtape over your Jonas Brothers Spotify playlist any day of the week…
We here at Bored Panda have created a list of all those ‘struggles’ that we had with technology back in the day, and they are sure to bring back some good memories. Do you recognize a few of these? Scroll down to check them out for yourself, and share your own stories in the comments!
