Back before the Internet was...the Internet.

I only remember one thing about the internet before facebook and all that jazz..

I love classic rock

 

thats not classic rock, its alternative, Avril, Train, LifeHouse and Bare naked ladies are all alternative rock. 

 

 

this right here is classic rock.

I would like not only travel back in time to experience it again, how it was like with just a 56k modem and stuff, but also further back in time to really experience the beginning of the like when the Pentium 1 came out and such, and really see their look on the face, when you tell them that we have 8 - core CPU's with up to 5GHz in like 20 Years time, I find that stuff to be super interesting!

HA, watching it atm and I love how the guy scoff's at AT&T's dismissal of the internet idea. It reminds me so much of ISPs in the US dismissing the idea of Gigabit internet. "Oh our customers don't need it". Bullshit and we all know it. Like the guy said, it's only because there's no revenue in it. Once Steam's In-Home streaming becomes a reality and gets adopted to be able to play over the internet, not just LAN, I'm pretty sure ISPs will jump on it like hyenas.

[Lord Pantaloons]

No, I despise what the internet has become for the most part but the old days were shit.

So now listening to music back in the early 2000s, it got me wondering how much I missed life before FB, Youtube, Twitter. Back when Limewire was a thing and downloading MP3s was a novelty (to play on your mp3 player ). Back when MSN was still a thing, where all my friends would create customized emoticons from GIFs and I'd just leach off them and copy/paste them to my emoticons. Back when Shockwave & Miniclip were the places to go instead of FB games. 

 

I miss the early 2000s . 

 

If you had the chance to travel back to the time when the Internet was at its infancy, would you?

 

Oh, forgot to mention....also them shitty Geocities websites  (to which I'm guilty of making one too...)

I would love too honestly Back when I MSN'd my mates and downloaded flash games to my memory stick and played them in the Library when no one was looking =3
