In honor of Valentine's Day, A List Apart asked readers what they love about the web. Most of the answers mention a specific website or technology like CSS or Blogger or Google Maps. I like Robert Scoble's answer best:

That I can find a movie review from my cell phone. That I can see a picture of my house. That I can tell my boss that he's wrong. That I can praise my boss. That I can track a flight. That I can buy flowers. Business cards. A book. Or pretty much anything. That I can watch Homestar Runner with my son. That I can email a picture to Flickr and have all my friends see it within minutes of me taking it. That I can arrange a party in London, a city I had never been to before, and have 120 people show up...

I love that I can go to archive.org and find the first website I ever built.
