For me, my Dad brought home a laptop from work and we looked up pictures of pokemon and went to the Simpsons website, circa around 1999. How about you?

    Does anyone remember Freenet? It was community dialup where as long as you had a modem you could dial in and use the Internet without your telecom being involved. Anyway I found my way to telnet talkers, which predated web browsers, and you had to telnet into a specific IP address to join a text based chat room. This was the earlier 1990s.
