I remember the first time I hopped on the World Wide Web. It was 1994. I was about halfway through college. A high school friend and I went to one of the school's computer labs and gave it a whirl. We were both big on "Beavis and Butthead", so headed to a site about them. Only a few minutes later, my friend played a recording of them chuckling. A couple other people in the lab looked at him, fooling around while they were trying to finish assignments.
Sometime later, the school had a special lab set up where people could go to just surf the net. I liked going there in between classes. It was always a bummer when all the seats were taken. The video below reminds me of those early days when Netscape was the main search engine and many of the graphics were still quite primitive. Enjoy the trip back.

Yes 1994 was about the time Bill Gates came out with his infamous quote... "The Internet? We are not interested in it."
I wonder where we would be today if Microsoft had stuck to that line. I think pretty much where we are today but I doubt Microsoft would hold the same monopoly they hold today!
"The Internet? We are not interested in it."......who dare say that now?
monopoly or not, I salute bill and his MS........everything is just a click away, awesome! it does have downsides, but the benefits easily outweighs that.
