    Your first internet experience?

    When were you first exposed to the internet?

    I really can't remember the exact time, all I can remember is life before internet and life after internet.

    My cousin's house in second grade. I used to be a huge fan of the Animorph book series and went to their official website because there was supposed to be a drawing of an alien that had only ever been described in the book.

    I used netscape on like a 33.6k connection...it was slow, but it was still cray-zee.

    My grandmother had WebTV. I was into pokemon cards then so all I did was look what was out there.


    Many many years ago I guess.

    One of the first times I remember was going to visit my brother, and the net was quite expensive for him then, so he let me go on for about an hour or something, and I went to this chat room site that I'd seen advertised in magazines (www.teenchat.co.uk I think xD) I thought chat rooms were so amazing then and I didn't want to get off it. xD I can't remember exactly when that was but over 5 years ago anyway.

    When I first started using the Internet I was 14 and I used to go in Chatrooms, usually one of Greychat called UKMob. I made a lot of good friends there, that I am still in contact with even now. I can remember when It was cool to use chatrooms and if you didn't use them then you sucked.

    Then I sorta branched out a little, it started when I went looking for some Final Fantasy information and I joined various sites.

    I remember having AOL from 94-97, but I can't remember my first experience. The earliest I CAN remember though, is downloading Doom .wad files at 9600 baud and thinking it was fast back in 94. :/

    Took me 24 hours to download a couple megabytes, and now I can download gigabytes in a few hours. :S

    I had the internet on my first computer which was my brother's when I was 9. I would even sneak on here and post like when I was 10, actually. ;x

    When I was in 2nd grade, my sister told me to go on neopets, so I went. I made an account and I have no idea what and where it is anymore... xD

    I first got on the 'net at my grandfather's house. The year was 1999, I think. =P I was a late bloomer. I used Netscape Navigator, and instead of typing websites into the browser bar, I pressed 'File' 'Open Location'. I believe that day I searched for Pokemon chatrooms, thinking that I was quite the bad boy for going to an <i>evil<i> chat room.
