The internet was a hype wave too. Remember the dotcom bubble? And then also remember how eventually the internet actually did revolutionize communication, business and entertainment?
Yes, there's hype. There's also a tangible sense that we're at this 'internet circa 1995' moment. I feel like the hype is warranted.
