I personally think that moment was in 1993, when the Encarta CD was released.
It had a huge amount of information, but it didn’t feel overwhelming.
The internet also didn’t feel overwhelming.
In 2005, I think the internet already felt overwhelming.
But I guess if you weren’t the nerdy type crawling the web, then social media and smartphones were the game changer and I would put the date closer to 2010.
