I loved Compuserve!!!
Hahaha, yeah my first experience was with compuserve too. It was great! That's was '94. But my parents shut it off and swiched to another service because we were on it all the time and of course they charged by the hour and they charged us in U.S rates so with the exchange it was 10 times more expensive.
My dad bought a directory (like a yellow pages book) for all commercial websites out there in 1993. Guess how thick the book would be if there is one now!
It was the summer before I was going into 8th grade or high school I think... was at my best friend's house in Texas visiting her and we got on AOL and we thought the chat rooms were the coolest thing ever, then came home and got my own AOL account and the rest is history.
my first exp was in 93 while in college at univ of arkansas...... i realized what email was and the WWW. I than really got hooked/ addicted to IRC/MIRC and i think i majored in that instead of Political Science. I lived onit for 24/7. than i got my first aol acct ...when you were paying for hours.....
