I subscribe to Seth Godin's weblog and frequently find good postings there. Here's an example. Seth lists the top 10 reasons why the Internet is just starting to click after 10 years. Here are some of the reasons:

2. Bandwidth. It's easy to forget how horrible modem surfing was. The prevalence of high bandwidth connectivity means that surfing is far more natural, more frequent and that the experience is better as well.
3. Tools. You can launch most any online service with almost no custom programming. Changethis.com demonstrated to me how straightforward this has become. It also means that finding the world's greatest programmer is no longer a critical component for most services.
