| I still remember altavista, lycos, geocities, and ask
Good times. I was never able to find what I wanted, lol.
I actually hated google because I thought it was spam. It came up whenever I typed a wrong url. I ignored it until my super smart friend in 8th grade told me she used it. |

| Yea I remember those days of going to the library and checking out a bunch of books to find out about stuff. I would wax nostalgia but fuck it. I enjoy being able to sit on my ass and having all the information at my fingertips. |

| Ohh, I found an exploit with compuserve. If you went online to register, you can just leave the page there and browse the internet for free!  But I used Juno mostly. I found this thing to disable their ad bar. But then they died and I had to use netzero and their stupid 10hr/month limit.  |
