I remember when 56k modems came out and you were excited until your ISP told you they didn't have any 56k lines you could call. :(

I remember when I had this idea, to make a website where people can join up and post what they are thinking about, photos, stuff like that.

Fuck yeah... I had stic. 10 bucks a month.

I remember the old text BBSs you could dial into before the internet though. 30min to download one nuddy pick.

:lmao


But man, aol couldn't have come at a better time for me (teenager). It was dial-up but that was the start of a new age of dating with those aol chatrooms. I couldn't believe how easy it was to get girls this way! It was pretty amazing.

I like how Gumbel sold out Couric for not knowing what the @ symbol means.

"that's how people were able to communicate during the quake when the phone lines were down"

"so you don't need a phone line to use the internet?"

"apparently not"
