This is pretty close to the way it was!!

The internet was actually thought of in the late 1960s but they couldn't really do anything until they came up with DNS for transfer in the late 1970s!! They then had the internet usable for the public in the mid 1980s but did not get popular to the public until the early 1990s!! I personally did not get involved until 1994 and have been an addict ever since!

I used internet for the first time in 1998. A friend took me to an internet cafe. It was a whole new world for me. At starting of 1999, I had my own personal dialup 56k connection.. lol

The first time I used the internet was when I was around 16. Yahoo chat used to be really hot at the time, lol. But I stopped using the internet, and started again regularly when I was 20 (4 years ago).

Using UW's Dial Up, My first time on the internet was fun. Though it was pretty slow until cable came into the world.
