I love how far design has come since back when I was waiting for Netscape to support nested tables.
I love how the browser has progressed as a platform, especially through the use of web standards. It has rough patches at times, but overall, it's defied every pronunciation that it was obsolete and keeps getting better for developers and consumers.
I love how the web has become a platform for personal expression, not just for the tech savvy, but with a point and shoot ease, exposing new voices to the world that might otherwise have remained constrained to small geographies.
I love how instead of just linking library catalogs, it's grown to encompass entire libraries and made free or inexpensive learning materials available to people who wouldn't have had access before.
There are some dark corners and dark uses, but I think the benefits of the web for art, culture, knowledge, technological progress, and cooperation vastly outweigh them.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
My opinion is it's evolved magnificently.
