What's your Internet Age?

[Rip the Jacker]

AKA, how long have you been on the internet?

 

[AbAbber2k]

Um... how long has the internet been around? Take like a year off that.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Pretty close to 1997.

 

[Stumps]

since early 1996, 14.4k modem FTW

 

[I Saw OJ]

We had the internet (aol) way way back, must be 12-13 years.

 

[Vegitto]

I'm 15. I voted 10+. We were the first family in our street to have internet, and I used it as soon as I could type.

 

[ForumMaster]

i suppose 5-6 years. i registered my first email account at 2000.

 

[Baked]

I invented the Internet. Then some bastard name Gore stole my idea.

AOHELL? lolol. the first thing i did when i got on aol was... look up porn. that was when i was like 14 on a 2400 baud modem. then came the 9600 and 14.4 and 28.8, and eventually the 56ks. bastards!

 

[aircooled]

10+

 

[FeuerFrei]

I started using the internet in college back in 1995 at least.

I didn't connect my own computer to the internet until summer 1996.

So either 10 yrs or 11 yrs depending on how you look at it.

 

[MechaSheeba]

Like 97, AOL dial up from Germany, the worst.

 

[91TTZ]

I used to use my Commodore 64 and 8088 PC (with Turbo button) on BBS's back in the late 80's/early 90's. Many of those BBS's had gateways to usenet. I remember one of the BBS's having a big picture of Jessica from Who Framed Roger Rabbit on it, so that should put a date on things.

So I'll say my first post on the internet was about 18 years ago.

Remember, the internet isn't just the World Wide Web.

 

[jtusa]

[NetGuySC]

Whenever it was that a 1200 baud modem was the snizzle.
