More life changing than railroads or the auto? The railroads helped develop America by moving people and supplies West. The auto helped move people from the cities to the suburbs.

The Internet has moved communication from real-time (telephone) to email. Amazon allows me to pay more, and wait longer, to read a book.

The Internet is evolutionary, not revolutionary. IMO, the internet does not even come close to the railroads or the automobile. Also, the internet has been around since the 70's.
