"Not for long. Mobile Google has turned Trivial Pursuit into a typing competition." I hope you're right. "I'd also question the use of the phrase modern culture here." You make a good point. It reminds me of the Aborgine's navigation technique referred to as "Songlines" or "Dreaming Tracks" -- they didn't have maps and instruments to navigate with, so instead they told stories. With those stories, they could convey not only a route, but also the locations of water holes and foraging grounds, and by using the story as a mnemonic, it was easy to learn and remember as well as to pass on to another.
