My generation (>40 years or older) don’t often see the power of the online world.

But I know lots of people are like me out there.  I just enjoy the sentience of other people. You know what I mean?

As someone who is considerably younger, I guess I don't. Is it the amazement that by merely posting on your blog, you can potentially reach millions of people at once, and have them possibly respond back with informed discourse?

Not specifically.

What I mean is that I can easily connect with others regardless of location in a meaningful way.

For example, my dog just turned 1 yesterday. Not only can I go onto a Facebook group dedicated to that particular "litter" and post to the breeders and interact with them but the other puppy owners are able to put up pictures.  We take it for granted now but even just 10 years ago that would have been beyond the capabilities of most people.
