95-96. The first website I went to: bassplayer.com to read the article from Jeff Berlin about chosing your first instrument. Then I believe I used metacrawler to search for pictures or websites containing Les Claypool's Rainbow bass

I started HS around '95, Claris Works and Gopher was supposed to be the wave of the future! I used the 'net off and on until my family finally plunged on a Gateway in '98.

I was on the "Internet Pilot Project" for my organisation - so I was drafted into the project team to look at using it for work.

As others have mentioned, it was sort of annoying as people would come along to my desk and ask me to look things up - but I suppose it was way to meet directors and influential people!!

I had email at work in 1990 and we started looking at the internet early 90s - but I can't remember when exactly!

Too long ago!

ok then, who is part of the Internet II project?
I don't anybody who is...

386SX 16mhz PC i bought with my paper route money... I ran my own BBS, it seems like 50 years ago now.

At home must've been about '98 or '99........can't remember exactly......more likely '99 But at work it could have been as early as '97.

Although I first started using email in '93......one of my job moves....and I've had email at work ever since!
