It is fine, good, and even useful to remember the past, so long as one doesn't get trapped there. The question is: what do we learn from the past and apply today so that some day we can say "the rise of the open social web was a beautiful moment in time."

My high school BBS was a beautiful moment in time. USENET and alt.society.generation-x was a beautiful moment in time. The beginning of the blogosphere was a beautiful moment in time. The early days of Twitter were a beautiful moment in time. They were great, and now they're gone. It's fine.
