Internet garden?

I am about to date myself by  observing how the internet has changed gardening. Puzzling over why my favorite lilac tree is not blooming , I searched my favorite web site (It's you bet your garden,I have a link for you), looked up lilacs and found my answer (not enough sun) in a few minutes flat. When I first started gardening, I would have had to visit local library, and spend at least a half an hour trying to find an answer. Amazing! BUT I still have to go out there and trim the tree near the lilac myself, don't I? Thank Goodness, I do!
