when did you first get on line? What were the first sites you went to? How have things changed, are you on more or less now ?

I have been online for about four years now. I can't really remember the first site I went on. I think I was looking for chats and stuff first. Found some real trash at first thought. I didn't really do well with searching online at first. A little overwhelming. But I am comfortable trying out things now.

I first got online in 1998. I got a computer with my tax return. I had just found out that I had Multiple Sclerosis. I did many searches on the disease. That is all I knew how to do besides playing solitaire. I, then found out about Yahoo and everything it offered, including Groups (Clubs back then). Now, I do a little bit of everything, except online dating. Got my man from a Yahoo group (MS Friends) and life is wonderful.

my first access to internet were on high school and yahoomail is my first website to open. its our subject where we are instructed to create our own email address because our teacher will send us a reply if we have fulfilled the requirement. when i based my knowledge on net when i was in high school, its very different now. A big change where i access a lot of site now and learn through it like forums etc.

I first got on line roughly ten years ago when I was still in grade school. Back then, there wasn't nearly as much information available on the web like there is today. It seems before you would never think of using the internet for finding driving directions or seeing what the weather is going to be like for tomororw, it just wasn't avaialable. Today, I don't know how i'd live without the internet. In fact, I have no idea where i'd get my driving directions from.
