Specifically, good things on the World Wide Web: research. The amount of good information available is incredible, compared with pre-Internet times. Weather forecasts, what the space telescope is looking at, what's happening in other parts of the world places in their own voice.

Sure, there is misinformation as well, and some people will cast doubt on anything they don't like or try to drown it out, but get past that, and this is a golden age of knowledge.
