Out of

There are at the very least one hundred and one
million places you could begin trying to find a what your looking for on the internet.
I'm glad you started here and I hope you are to.
Probably more than any other American highway,
Route 66,
The
Mother Road,
symbolized
a new positive outlook that spread through the America’s economic
consciousness. "It became," according to one admirer, "an icon of
free-spirited independence linking the United States across the Rocky
Mountain divide to the Pacific Ocean."
Extensive transportation infrastructures enabled commerce and created
wealth, and brought with them mass markets then for TVs, appliances, and
phones. These things eventually in turn produced a demand for the Internet,
today's "superhighway".
What TV became in the last
half of the last century, what the telephone and the paved road were to the
early 20th century, so is the Internet to the current generation. It is
another grid now laid out across the continents that enables mass markets.
The same type of personality that drove the Mother Road to a better life are
also leading the way onto the Internet today.
