the internet?

For me it was looking up images of No Doubt and Gwen Stefani back in 1995 and printing up those amazing hi res images on a b&w laser printer. 😛.
 
AIX Hangman? Helo FIDO can you hear us? I was fishing for token rings when a collision took a big byte of our BNC connector!

It's been a while - when everyone had green or yellow screens and screen saver really had a meaning. 🙂
 
dont really remember, was screwing around on prodigy, but i was just a kid... might have also been telnetting into TAMU library to check on my moms library books.

AOL Chat Room MP3 FTW.

Before that I used it mainly to telnet into my dad's mail server and retrieve txt based emails using the Win 3.1 / 95 telnet program. 😛 That and I liked to play direct modem-to-modem games with my friend down the street-- namely descent and descent 2.
 
The very first thing? Can't remember that one, but I do know it was through AOL 2.5. Leet "hacker" chat rooms with punting/anti punting software and all sort of other goofy sh!t. Oh and of course porn and game demos. Ahhh back in the day for the win. For how "slow" and limited things were back then, they were great times. 🙂
 
Talking about this game called STUNTS! on a bulletin board. 1994 or somewhere around there. On a 14.4K connection no less!
 
like 90% of people im guessing, was on AOL, thinking that it was the internet. And going into lesbian chat rooms asking for pics. Haha
 
My first access to the Internet was via AOL when they offered FTP and I think Usenet and Gopher. I downloaded some shareware via FTP.

When I got a real ISP 6 months later I think the first thing I did was send an e-mail to one of my AOL friends with Eudora. Then I downloaded Netscape 1.12.

This was 1993-1994 I think.
