I guess I learned how to use it when I was 8. I was looking for cheat codes.
I remember the first website I went to was archiecomics.com because I remembered they'd started printing their URL on the comics and I had one handy when at a friend's house who had just got the internet.
um, my early internet years were mostly spent at talkcity, where I took RPing seriously without realizing it wasn't RP. Sadly I had chosen the nick senatorkitten and so one night, pretending to actually be a cat, I said something unfortunately like "/me takes a bath" and some guy pipes up with "Can I watch"
"Um. . . . . . no"
xD
then there was WoFS. I emailed poor kellilla a blow by blow description of comments I had on her art and she told me that Ihsould just go to her forums for that stuff and I didn't know what a "BBS" was so it was scary. and then it was my first forum.
then I started getting into harry potter RPGs, and they were all on dumb little expages xD but that's where I started to learn HTML :D then I found one that was defunct and everyone moved to Magic Hogwarts pretty much, and I stayed there until it died, and I met a bunch of people there that I had (and still have) much <3 for, one I met, and one who introduced me to final fantasy.
Yahoo! Games. :monster:
12 years. Porn.
i think i was like 6 or 7 and i got on the internet to go to disney.com and play games
My first memories of the internet were when I was 10 and going to this Gundam Wing based chat room. SO many nice people and I made a lot fo friends there. Too bad it closed about 2 years later. :(
I was like seven or eight the first time I used the Internet. It was mostly to go on nick.com to play games xD And then I have some vague memory of joining a Harry Potter forum, or something like that ...
Typing "penis" into the Altavista search engine. I found a picture of a giant penis made of Spam.
Early internet memories consisted of AOL, MSN, Nsync message boards, Zelda and Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis walkthroughs.
i remember downloading ROMs as one of the first things i did with the internet. i don't play on emulators much...
My very first times were just to research pokemon and digimon stuff cause I was bored. Every now and then I would go into a chat room to talk for a bit.
But when I seriously began to use it, was when I first joined EoFF, as I made it a habit to try and get on every week to talk. Mostly about planning for FFXI like 3 years in advance or some such crazy amount of time. XD

First thing I did was look up information on FF III (US) on my old 14.4k modem using AOL back in '97. I think that was just when AOL was just starting to offer dial-up for like $20 something dollars a month.
Scorched Earth online, probably the coolest thing ever.
Also played a "MMORPG" which ran out of DOS and consisted of ASCII characters.
